Sunbird fx

please delete it

Hi geniusztc!

I am relatively new to the forex online trading world and have already had a negative experience with a broker. Expressing frustration, my friend referred me to Sunbirdfx. I got around to trying them out this past month and I have only had a positive experience using them. Being new to forex, I found the site user friendly: easy to navigate and filled with helpful advice. Sunbirdfx assisted me; responding to my questions in a timely matter. I have not been active on Sunbirdfx for that long, but thus far- my experience has been positive and has made my trading life that much easier and more enjoyable. I hope you find it as helpful as I.

Good luck and Keep Trading

really???!!! did you open a live account ?

regulated by ???
headquarters in ???

Never heard of Sunbirdfx. If I were you I'd go with a b0rker with a known reputation. I do like their logo though Even the flash header is interesting, needs the font resized though.

Better to be safe than sorry.

i am sorry ,but what is wrong ???

thank you

lol really? thank you for your information .but this broker is really a new one .

I see major red flags for this "broker." I would not consider sending them any money.

It has an unknown and unverifiable history. They claim to have been in existence since 2005 serving hedge funds, and gone mainstream 2010. If someone can find some history on them, great. The same page lists some guy named "H. Ventura" as CEO with a blurb about service. That's BS. It's BS because the name is meaningless - why bother putting it there? Why only "H?" What's the supposed individual's history? How could anyone find out? Where's he live? Where does he "CEO" from?

The contact list is a haphazard attempt at impressing, but if you can interpret it properly, it is completely meaningless. Where is the head office? Where will one send their funds? Which bank? Who provides liquidity? What about access to a the customer agreement you're expected to sign?

What about professional association or governmental overseeing membership? They're not in the NFA, CFTC, FSA, CIPF nor IIROC. Nada. Zip. Nothin'. Yet, they claim to operate in these countries. But do they?

Check the Toronto "address." It happens to match up with smarttradefx, an address which is one of those virtual offices and mail drop, it appears. Google the Toronto telephone number - it's a skype telephone number. Not much of a Canadian office presence, is it? Me thinks they've overdone it on the contact numbers and seeming locations ... perhaps because there's no oversight, professional membership, nor knowledge of where they are, who they are, and ... why they are?

Check the disclaimer: "Sunbird does not verify that the information given in this website is reliable.
... A client who uses this site is giving up his rights to ascribe any responsibility to Sunbird." Hunh?? Oh, I guess that means this: "In order to secure your funds we hold the funds in separate bank account designated as “clients account”." That's exactly what JadeFX said on his website, but, over $3 million of investor's funds may be gone, once the CFTC caught up with him.

Don't even bother here - I've only scratched the surface with concern points on this beast. There are dozens of better & debatably more secure brokers and futures firms out there.

Whois shows that the website was just created about 6 months ago. A broker has been around since 2005 but just created a web presence 6 months ago? Yes, I think you are correct Beljevina, something seems fishy. Maybe if someone lives near one of the offices they could check it out for us.

Sydney time on website was wrong... on top of points advised... why risk it... these guys look as dodgy as hell just trade with established regulated brokers... just ask the ex JadeFx clients how trying new brokers goes??

That's actually very revealing (I did say I barely scratched the surface). The site is registered to an address in the Republic of Seychelles. I bet you forex traders are one of the few groups of people who might know where this is, because there are so many firms operating out of there. It must be the strict corporate and political governance and overseeing that draws them there. The truth is these are offshore business registration addresses of convenience, much like Belize, Cyprus and others. There are web shops that will do this for you. A forex trading firm registered to an island nation off the coast of Africa? Come on, get real.

The contact address it is registered to is [email protected] - farily professional, isn't it. There also appears to be some (google) connection to everestforex - that site draws people in by telling them they will receive a $100 trading account, and then adds $100 for every additional customer you bring them. There are cheap low-ladder rung forums around that promote this to unsuspecting new traders. Google, and you'll find they do not pay and is clearly a scam site, thinly disguised as an IB, to at minimum steal you email information.

Don't even think of this broker - don't be fooled by the somewhat OK done web site (by scam broker standards, that is). Run. Run far away.

I agree on the yahoo address as a business contact. What, were all the good names taken? It could be the proxy address with their host though but still, for a legitimate company to use a proxy is a bit odd.

I still dont get how people find these obscure bucketshops. I searched "Forex Broker" in google and this broker wasnt in the top 20 pages of results. I guess this is why forex scams are so prevalent, there are suckers everywhere waiting for their money to be taken from them...

I recently started trading with SunbirdFX (added another broker to my long list); So far, so good... Impressed by their customer service. Also- no re quotes, and no dealing desk = no problems and one happy trader! I have not yet withdrawn: hope I'm satisfied...

Felt I was taking a risk when registering for SunbirdFX; I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised by my experience. Like their many trading platforms options and no re-quotes is never a bad thing. Haven't contacted their customer service yet though... we'll see how it goes when I have a problem...

... but you felt like gambling with your money, right?

Why people purposefully go out of their way to mail their hard earned cash to an unknown country (Mauritius?) where there are no controls, absolutely no knowledge of who you're sending it to, and with no guarantees or certifications behind the company at all - is beyond me, and that of clear thinking. But, to each their own.

In the meantime, we will assume you work for Sunbird, or have gained nothing from these vast and valuable pages of FF.

DingDingDing We have a winner!

Anyone else notice that the only people praising this broker have less than 10 posts and have only been registered for maybe 2-3 months.

Those who gave favorable reviews on SunbirdFX have less than 5 total posts since being on FF....enough said.

How very astute of you capt obvious...
