Great Broker to work with. Fast execution and helpful customer support. Also withdrawal processing in 1 day
Know when to leave you alone with trading. Avalibility of OS X supports help to use MT4 without limitations of web-trader. Otherwise, standard brokerage without dirt attached to their name. a
Grateful to Land-FX for their involvement in the transition to a more well-rounded brokerage with the introduction of cryptocurrencies. Not ideal, it’s still an OK solution to benefit from such great movers as Ripple last week!
Shorting crypto on their platform, what a time to be trading that, even with the smallest of the leverage. Deposits and Withdrawals are rocket fast!
Didn’t no that slippage is still a thing in FX industry, but after talking to friends trading with local brokers, got back to that review “favour request” and giving it back for not letting me rediscover that dread of an industry artefact.
Cryptos, CFD, exotics, majors and least slippage is what sets Land-fx apart from the rest of brokers.
With over a year of trading journey, land-fx has always been good for my profession.
Land-FX minds it’s own business while you can mind your’s . Solid execution, no annoying up-selling and other marketing gimmicks. Pure MT4 trading experience.
I’v doe my share of trading and loosing to know that You should not trust a company that has a bad reputation online. Land-FX has mostly good sentiment about them, next to decent trading conditions.
Helped me to install MT4 for Mac, wasn’t even that was possible. An amazing team of caring professionals. The industry could use a couple of more people like this,
If you want to experience best Forex trading services, giving less importance to the freebies, you can join Land-fx.
Despite a dismal win rates among land-fx traders (over ≈ 80% burn their accounts), there little to blame the broker for. Their execution, pricing and range of instruments would make several non-discount broker jealous – not to mention the lovely customer support team.
Stupidly enough, i was introduced to Land-FX on a football game. Was surprised to see an arguable garbage of a PL team being financed by an FX brokers. Then decent website description got me interested and here I am, trading part time, sharing my undercooked opinions on the market.
One of the most flexible broker in Asia. European attention to detail blended ideally with asian discipline.
My rules of thumb is to ctl+F the home page for the word “best”, if the service provider has it on their website – it’s goodbye for me. Don’t like the bluntly bragadatious types. Land-FX, on the other hand, is an example of humility and well balanced service offering – what a trully good discount broker should be.
Was advised to check them out over a less scrupulous approach to on boarding EU clients to other jurisdictions. Everything worked as intended. If you are looking to “fine-tune” your leverage – just reach out, they helped me.
After a two month long debacle (check fpa). My case has finally been resolved and land-fx provided the necessary consolidation. Despite the hassle and the amount of energy wasted on very prudent conversation, in the end, the result, is what matters. Thanks to the customer support team, that stayed professional throughout the whole time, even when i lost my shit a couple of times.
Although not the most versatile analysis, there are couple of people in land-fx client relationship department, who could talk you out of really bad decision (like going long on gbp/eur).
one of the best companies to trade majors under fca regulation with bonuses & leverage above 1:50. Would appreciate them adding more cfd at stocks at the prices similar to their fx offering. Otherwise, Land-FX is golden to me!
With low fx volatility, the trend of this summer is cfd on stock trading. With many pundits not shutting up about the next financial crisis being around the corner if not already in the building, stock market is behaving extremely petulant, providing ample opportunities to day trading. Land-fx does a good job with all the bonuses, and negative balance protection to make a risky business of trading overly expensive stocks (comissions do add up if you trade cfd on stocks as opposed to actual stocks), worth the hassle.
I had an argument with Land-fx over squaring off my positions during the volatile time but then I realized that it was because of their negative balance protection I was saved from huge losses.
Was devastated when the crypto trading was canceled, now when the whole economy is going down and land-fx offers such a lucrative shorting environment for traditional instruments, the show continues. You never know where the opportunity jumps you by surprise these days.
Have been trading with three brokers since past few years. Land-fx gets the most volume.
Friends and i run pam via land-fx. The lands are aiming to win the competition by making the condition a bargain. The solution seems sound and doesn’t require to much from the client – all paperwork handled on land-fx side.
ESMA doesn’t credit anyone easily. Land-fx has a reputable position in their list and it speaks a lot.
Never regretted joining Land-fx just because it offers a less bonuses and the staff give no fake promises.
Welcome back bonus is kinda disappointing, when it come to trading environment – that’s were the true colours of the broker show up. Good job on Zulu integration!
Was happy to find an apology letter in my mailbox, even before the official claim via FPA. Speak volumes about the genuine nature of that broker.
World’s best brokers sometime fail to satisfy you. Same is the case with Land-fx. I wasn’t satisfied when their negative balance protection policy stopped few of my trades. Though, rest is fine and clear.
Don’t lie to yourself, go for standard account and terrorise their B-Book account – have zero problems withdrawing the profit throughout the better part of 2019.
If you are looking for a cheap and safe access to fx and cfd, land-fx shines brightly. If you don’t know jack sh**t about trading, try zulutrade, just don’t get your hopes to high, zulu comissions are quite high.
God knows who else could’ve offered such a great services in the industry known for scams. Good job Land-fx!
Which business calls their clients these days? Really don’t get it. Happy to see the level of respect by this team. One message is enough to still get all the necessary info with 0 over the phone awkwardness fare. Love it when client relationship is at the core of the service’s experience.
Absolutely love this discount broker, everything about them is done from a place of deep understanding of the industry and the particular discount niche. Clean spreads, no out side commissions and decent b-book execution.
Although it’s rarely mentioned on their website, their account management team and avalibility is exceptional (video calls, teamviewer step-by-step support). Not sure how well it’s positioned in terms of intra-day trading, i ma here for a long-ball game.
They helped me widen the spread to start referring clients to them, you’d be surprised how many brokers hit the wall when a minor tweak in trading conditions has to be made for a partner.
The broker is surprisingly good with EAs, every day i’v been wondering when they decide to kick me out, for exhausting their b-book, but one day i’v been finally reached out and reassured that my money are safe and the broker is looking closely to showcase my account as a potential MAM candidate. No bad 🙂
5/5
I’m old school this way, but still strongly convinced that having a good relationship with an account manager is more important than spreads and what book you are put onto. If you are of another opinion, wait until you want to withdraw and your bank doesn’t want to deal with a forex broker wires.
4/5
This review is an extension of my apology to the team of land-fx for being unnecessary blunt and rude over an intricate matter, that was eventually resolved. Unlike, I, the company reps, showed complete dignity. Sorry for being a knob once again, you deserve every star.
4/5
Negative balance protection just saved my ass on oil trading, big kudos to Land-FX for sticking to the policy in this difficult time!
4/5
Elite CurenSea suggested me Land-fx and I don’t regret since then.
3/5
Turns out Lands are not such a bad place for a money manager. Not only do they offer superb trading conditions (20% smaller swaps, fixed spread and no tricks), but also occasionally refer clients to me.
4/5
My grandpa used to trade in a pit while me and dad benefited from technological advancements. We’re all traders in the family and we know the business well. Land-fx is my choice for the new generation that has deep roots and safe trading.
5/5
Had to use land-fx for this Ultima EA by Elite CurrenSea, ended up moving all of my FX portfolio saving over 7k on commissions on yearly basis.
4/5
Their market research team is quite week, bu boy do the overcompensate with bonus on deposits and that sort of monetary perks.
4/5
I closed trading few years back and returned to Land-fx assuming the same services I used to cheer. Was surprised with “welcome back bonus” and their services have improved beyond limits. Must say I’m happy with them.
4/5
Despite a relatively vague online footprint on land-fx online (you’d actually learn a lot more about them in japanese), the company turned out to be a very solid forex broker. No extra features, to justify a discount status, comes at no expense to customer support and trading technology.
3/5
Couldn’t do much with my first two brokers as none them offered services close to Land-fx. Regulation, trading mechanism, LPs, everything in one basket.
4/5
Only the Pro can suggest best options. I visited a few seminars of Nenad Kerkez from EliteCurenSea and he drove me to Land-fx. I really thank him for it.
3/5
Have changed hands with multiple brokers having B-book and were giving MAMM accounts. Finally settled to Land-fx and its wonderful.
5/5
Not to seem racist, but Chinese know their stuff well! No hurdles with opening an account from EU, super flexible conditions and bs from account managers. Pleasure to work this way.
4/5
Land-fx doesn’t compromise on services, neither on the ESMA/FSA regulations, despite being a discount broker.
4/5
Everybody on the floor talks about smaller slippages and higher bonus, some also spot the regulations, while chosing a broker. I looked at all and added PAMM services, while taking help from EliteCurenSea, to chose Land-fx.
5/5
I own two trading accounts and have been in FX since long. Though I prefer Land-fx over others.
4/5
If bonus is your only criteria for joining any FX broker, I wouldn’t suggest Land-fx as they’re not generous enough. However, regulation, slippages and customer services made me even more happy with them than the bonus might have.
4/5
Thanks to their daily research i don’t need to overwhelm myself with all the extra analysis, and needless charting on my own. Hope my reliance on source of information will not run out of luck any time soon.
For now, highest praise to whoever is in charge of Land-FX research team!
4/5
Was surprised they supported virtual support over some minor issue with platform, i am still learning mt4 and all the lingvo makes my head spin sometimes. Fortunately, Land-FX have built up some tolerance with clients like me.
4/5
If you’ve not tried a geniune broker clearly claiming their performance measures on the website, go join Land-fx. You’ll be amazed.
Got in through their refer a friend program. Now referring my own friends, can’t be happier with how Land-fx moves forward, half a year ago, it was a simple discount shop, now more and more services are piling up, and surprisingly most of them are really relevant to me.
4/5
Friday withdrawal request and Monday funds arrival, that’s how i like to transition between weekend and back! Land-fx seems to understand the urgency of the modern-age world.
4/5
Never lost a trade due to the delay in execution (many trades to other way less independent screwups on my side), but never to a re-quote. Or how they say, i’v got 99 trading problems but the broker ain’t one.
4/5
Don’t be scared of trading forex if Land-fx is behind you. They have least slippages, no fishy policies and the quotes are quite good. I tried three different brokers before joining this GREAT broker.

Land-fx preserves the characteristics of an old-school broker and offers advanced services at the same time. I like them very much!
4/5
There are many ways to woo customers and then trap them without any exits but only one to keep them happy and gaining. Land-fx knows that one way, at least for me.
4/5
Nine out of 10 times Land-fx pleased me with their solutions. The one time always has to do with their light physical presence.
4/5
Can’t recollect when I last had an argument with Land-fx. They help in all the cases and understand their customers. The staff is so nice and the technicalilites are regulated as well.
5/5
Care to trade with an ace broker and forget that bogus bonus offers? I was ready to when joining Land-fx and I never regret my decision. The broker surpasses my expectations all the time.
4/5
Never wondered why I make money easily trading FX when guys around me lose on the same instances. Land-fx is my cheer-sheet.

Land-fx shared multiple trading tips during their DEMO training that helped me in LIVE days. Should’ve raised concerns for less bonus but I knew what’s more important! Thanks LF!
