I red plus500 are scammers. If you tty to get your money they close your account citing you have broken the agreement and you don't get your money. Have anyone managed to get more money than they have sent to plus500 back?

Interesting that you say that is that I'm still waiting four days later to get my 'profit' withdrawal, after they returned my deposit amount which was done via paypal and using a credit card. So my initial stake is back in my hands, but not the results of my few trades.

I've been patient about it, and it's not a significant amount (200 bucks) but I've said to them I find it weird that withdrawals are processed with such delays, and come in 'parts'.

Yep, same as you - Plus 500

The feeds came back off and on a few times over the weekend but it looks like they are gone for good. I did some reading and they can't offer anything they can't easily get on the other side of the trade for, to arbitrage whatever people are trading on. Makes sense really as there is no way to buy or sell anything underlying for an exchange which is essentially shut.

Anyone still offering (I don't know any) is exposing themselves to massive risk, so i'd expect it to be pretty short lived.

Give me a shout if the situation changes. I wouldn't mind one of those 10x returns that you got - I have bills to be paid haha Wink

I did the same for a short while on friday - the wild swings were amazing. I made significantly less than you - 10% profit over a few hours as a protective stop kicked in a touch too early on one of my trades meaning i made 10 times less than i would have if that had not been closed.

Nail biting stuff though. Was getting in at 400 and out around 420 with a pretty aggressive leverage. Must say looking at the 200-300 range right now looks pretty juicy for the daily swing up to 300-400.

What kind of trades were you doing?
