Just don't do it.

The get you in, they win and make good wins based on the fact if they prove a winning rate you will invest more we made some excellent returns until we invested nearly $100k i was making as much as 10K in a session then the ba***rds dropped the lot almost in one trading session, there is no come back they suggested i invested more even borrow money to recoup lost funds. OPTEK is European for a*******, and there are still people saying how wonderful they are they should be in prison. When you ask for your balance back they tell they will not release because they want to help you get a return or recoup your money, you hand your money over you will never see it again and you will never see a profit.
Thankfully I found a broker that helped me recover over 65% of my money; I will have to keep it anonymous, but for any further info contact me at rileyjackson1990(at)outlook dot com

Stay away from this fraud scheme, I was lucky to get my money back!

Stay away from this fraud scheme. Being a regulated broker means nothing. They change rules as they want. First the client must have a trading volume of 15 times bonus size, then they increased this to 30 times. The only think they care is your money. They will continue to change the rules so that you can lose more money. Do not deal with these cheaters. Thanks to calgarysecurity d0t 0rg who helped me get almost all of it back. I lost a whole lot of fortune to these Frauds, I moved from one broker to another and found out all them 3 were the same fraud, over 90k lost until, I didn’t even have money saved for my funeral anymore, I was at the suicide point.

Only the ad sounds Reasonable

The ad sounds reasonable, and claim that you could withdraw anytime with no question asked but the true is far from it.
Once started, it started off aggressively asking you to invest with tutorial but when requested to trade by auto mode, different account managers will call to harass you to top up funds b'cos its lossing money and not making enough as they think I should...hello?? Its my money.
So when asked to withdraw, no way they would allow to give you back, they would reject and cancel your requests as much as your requests until the monthly handling fee turn you to nil zero.
The verdict, they are scam company, .

Absolute thieves, they make no attempt to alert you if you don't use the funds you place with them. They take those funds without telling you they are doing so. Very bad company do not deal with them

Opteck trading is a Useless platform

Opteck trading is a Useless platform. When they call you to register with initial deposit of 250$, they say that we will get a software (ORION CODE) for free. This software is utterly useless people, as it doesnt give any signals on the trading aspects, instead you will be forced to trade on your own (Manual trading) by a useless lady named "Alexandra Petrov" if I havent mistaken. I just lost my 190$ under her guidance on the phone. My recommendation, Please AVOID OPTECK AT ALL COSTS, WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY

I've had to change my number...

I was hassled immediately after signing up for an account by Opteck. They called me dozens of times until they eventually got me to give them £500. After losing £250, I decided it wasn't for me and requested my money back. I got called by a Manager in India who wanted to know why I wanted to withdraw my account. I told him that I had no obligation to tell him and that I would just like my money please. He got very aggressive saying that I needed to tell him the reasons why. He obviously wanted to overcome my objections but I wouldn't entertain it and kept refusing to give him a reason. I told him that it was my money and I didn't need to justify wanting it back. He got very aggressive with me and eventually ended the call without confirming if I would get my money back. A few days later I did receive it back, but this was after sending an email to them. By this time I had been called every day but refused to talk with anyone.

Once I got my money back, I abandoned my account. There was no place to close it and I wasn't willing to talk with Opteck on the phone again.

In the six months since I stopped using the platform, I have been called by them at least once a month. Everytime I tell them that I want absolutely nothing to do with them. Often when I tell them this, in no uncertain terms, they just hang up rudely. Sometimes they promise to take me off their lists. Yet, without fail, I get a phone call from Opteck at least once a month that makes me angry. This company may operate in the boundaries of legitimacy but they are extremely predatory. They will hound you relentlessly for money as that is all you are to them. You will have to change your phone number if you truly want to break ties with them as they have no respect for people's wishes. They will call you whether you want them to or not.

My whole life, I don't think I've ever been made to feel so upset and angry by a company. I don't care about the money I lost (within a single day). I care about being treated like prey.

No stars for this Identity theft company

Beware your documents are being sold for money. You will never see your money. EVER! Don't believe it will be returned in a LONG time, that is a diversion. Call your credit card company, the feds, and Interpol. These people are dangerous.

After a lot of difficulties regarding verification I wanted to close my account and get my money back, the broker Michael Sharpe convinced me to do one trade with him so I would leave as a happy "customer " unfortunately I did and lost all the money which I'm sure was his intention anyway..... well don't ever trust opteck trading.....

OPTECK SCAM ...STAY STAY AWAY

They are totally scam.Force you to fund.When you want to withdraw they will not allow you to do it.Stephan Fono/Account Manager. This gentleman is very rude at his behavior .

Strange withdrawal policy which they have is your account manager has to authorize your payment release.
The money belongs to us and i dont understand the logic why someone has to authorize our payments.

If someone can advise me were we can make complaints to get the money.Please do advise.

A lot of upselling

Just started on opteck.

I started as a green member with a $250 start up. They gave me the hard sell just to join. Wouldn't take 'no' or 'i'll think about it' for an answer.

Then the calls kept coming. 'WE would like you to be a silver member. Just deposit another $5000' 'Can't afford that well how about becoming a bronze member, another $2000'

And the call just keep coming and coming until you say yes......

Have to say they are very good at getting you to say yes so you might as well just hang up if you can't say NO!

On the plus side the trading is very easy..I have paired it with the other trading platform that I do so we will see how much I can grow the $250.

From reading the other post is sounds like the only tech signals that you are able to use from their trading platform is the bollinger bands...
Have to say they are not 100% reliable.

In the end it is just glorified gambling. Have fun and good luck. Don't lose all your hard earned $$.

Opteck will take your money.

This company is happy to let you work with a so called expert trader. The trades will make you lose all your money. The bonus which was promised has never materialised and the customer service will never call you back. The first trade was guaranteed (free) this was not the case either. Please do not use this company!! I am in the process of reporting it but don’t think I will get anywhere.

NEW METHOD FOR RIPPING PEOPLE OFF ( SCAM )

They call you until you've made the deposit then no one ever calls you again or gives a f**k about all the promises they made until when you made the deposit. You start bidding as a newbee and the market rates just drop a few seconds to finish time. NEW METHOD FOR RIPPING PEOPLE OFF ( SCAM )

Disappointed a lot

Very disappointed, after i registered they said someone will teach me how to trade after i deposit. Then they called me and told me the indicator and other basic thing than after that in couple a day, they called me again and yell off me and told me to trade real account now! and bra bra. after that I lost money because i don't know anything except the new website, indicator and some basic thing. i tell them i lost what can i do? they complain me again and told me that they will help but this time i have to deposit more to make it good. this can open less trade. and then tell me to trade bra bra bra. No teaches, No sorry. I'm don't sure the indicator I tried to learn from demo by myself. Very badly, Sometime i think if i change the account manager may be is will be better than that. i hope that will be someone that really good.
