In addition to the question of whether Tradixa offers a trustworthy service, it is important to deal with the basics for profitable online trading. We will also take a position on how the provider Tradixa should be evaluated compared to other investment opportunities.
In addition, we will stand by investors and support them in detailed questions and disputes in connection with Tradixa.
Tradixa experiences
According to the website, Tradixa’s vision is to offer a customised 1:1 account management service for customers who want to put their well-earned money to work. This is because Tradixa’s desire is that people do not just accumulate their capital in the bank, but pass it on and achieve higher profits.
Moreover, Tradixa believes that in recent years people have been conditioned to think that only people who have a lot of money and are specialists can dabble in shares or the exchange of other forms of money.
That is why Tradixa set out to give every person, whether at home or at work, the opportunity to trade foreign exchange(forex trading) and provide them with the 100% support and guidance needed for beginners.
Moreover, Tradixa is thrilled and grateful to see that its customer base has developed so quickly and continues to grow, benefiting its own customers and thus the provider itself. Furthermore, online exchange in the business areas is very easy with Tradixa, as they offer all tools and platforms.
However, according to Tradixa, it requires additional judgement and competence to be successful. Therefore, Tradixa strives to teach and guide its customers to do just that. In addition, Tradixa provides its customers with a choice of different account types:
- Basic account: Minimum deposit 250 US dollars
- Silver account: Minimum deposit 5,000 US dollars
- Gold account: Minimum deposit 15,000 US dollars, trading bonus up to 50%
- Platinum account: Minimum deposit 50,000 US dollars, trading bonus up to 100%
- Diamond account: Minimum deposit 100,000 US dollars, trading bonus up to 200 %
- VIP account: Minimum deposit 250,000 US dollars, trading bonus up to 200 %
Tradixa’s online presence
Information on the alleged online broker Tradixa is available on the English website of the provider at the URL www.tradix-a.com.
Operator and Trademark
The name of the website, the platform or the offer does not necessarily correspond to the operating company. In the past, it has often happened that companies operate with many different trademarks at the same time.
Furthermore, it is common practice for certain operators to deactivate the websites of “tarnished” trademarks and to return to the market a short time later using a different trademark.
For this reason, when researching news and statements about a provider, one is well advised to always consider the operating company in addition to the trademark. The relevant data can be found either in the imprint or often also in the footer of a website.
On the Tradixa website, no distinction could be made between the trademark and an operating company at the time of observation.
Imprint information
In Germany, according to §5 of the German Telemedia Act (TMG), there are general obligations to provide information and mandatory details for the imprint. Accordingly, this obligation to “identify the provider” exists for all commercially operated websites.
This is because this information is intended to inform the user of a website who he or she is dealing with. In addition, the postal address of the website owner plays a role in the event that legal claims are to be enforced against him.
In this context, it is also important to note that the obligation to maintain an imprint applies equally to foreign providers who carry out their business activities in Germany. In October 2021, no legally binding imprint could be found on Tradixa’s website.
CEO
According to §6 of the German Media State Treaty (MDStV), the name of the person responsible for the content of the website must be mentioned in the imprint. In most cases, this is a member of the provider’s management. Identifying the responsible persons by name is not only obligatory, but also a feature of transparency.
As of October 2021, there is no data on the persons responsible for the content on Tradixa’s website.
Background to the domain
Some companies use their many years of experience to suggest seriousness. However, such statements are often contradicted by the date on which the domain was registered. Consequently, it is necessary to check who the domain holder is and in which year the domain was registered.
Our lawyers have determined the data for Tradixa on 13.10.2021 with this result: Domain name: tradix-a.com Registry domain ID: 2613597428_DOMAIN_COM-VRSN Registrar WHOIS Server: whois.namecheap.com
Registrar URL: http://www.namecheap.com Updated Date: 0001-01-01T00:00:00.00Z Creation Date: 2021-05-20T14:17:35.00Z Registrar Registration Expiration Date: 2022-05-20T14:17:35.00Z Registrar: NAMECHEAP INC
Tradixa Contact Information
At the time of writing, the following information was available on the Tradixa website:
- Postal address of Tradixa: n. A.
- Tradixa phone number: 0044 2038 079 312
- Tradixa e-mail address: support[a]tradix-a.com
Tradixa Authorisation
The existence of a valid authorisation from a state European financial supervisory authority can be an important characteristic of whether a provider is reputable. This is because a provider has to make a great financial effort to obtain a licence.
However, it does not necessarily have to be investment fraud if an online broker omits information about its authorisation or its own regulatory status. The following financial supervisory authorities, among others, are responsible for granting licences and supervising financial service providers such as Tradixa:
- BaFin, Germany (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority)
- CySec, Cyprus (Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission)
- FSMA, Belgium (Financial Services and Markets Authority)
No evidence of regulatory licensing could be found on Tradixa’s web presence as of October 2021. Investors can discuss what this fact entails in an exchange with legal counsel from our law firm.
Tradixa – Regulatory warning from the FCA
A warning notice on the subject of Tradixa appeared from the UK financial regulator FCA back in February 2020. This is because the authority believes that this company may be offering financial services or products in the UK without authorisation.
Before trading with Tradixa and others – trading tips
Online trading like Tradixa is the extension of traditional trading in financial instruments to the web. Here, as there, investors act on the premise of generating income through the purchase and sale of assets. Trading is no longer limited to shares. Rather, investors also have the following options at their disposal, for example:
- Government Bonds
- Investment funds
- Trading in contracts for difference
- Real estate
- Commodities
- Money market funds
- Bank Deposits
- Forex Trading
- Gold
- ETFs
Online trading is carried out via interfaces such as online brokers (e.g. Tradixa) or banking institutions that provide their customers with a specific trading solution. In particular, the far-reaching technological advances of recent years are the reason why online trading today is time-saving and convenient and thus as accepted as it is popular.
Advantages of online trading
Digitalisation is also changing the world of finance considerably, especially with regard to trading such as with Tradixa. Because due to the technical possibilities, trading has gained particularly massively in speed.
Whereas investors and traders used to have to place their orders by telephone, fax or post, this can now be done at the click of a mouse and at a fraction of the cost.
Criteria such as the term and type of trade, prices and quantities or account details can nowadays be clarified without a personal conversation between a provider such as Tradixa and its customers. In this respect, the opportunity for online trading has created many conveniences:
- The speed at which transactions can be executed has increased noticeably.
- Returns can be achieved even with a low investment.
- Training opportunities for online trading, knowledge pools, analyses or trading courses are part of the offer in many places.
- The range of tradable financial instruments is broader and deeper.
- A large number of tools can be used automatically and immediately.
- Online traders have access to many tools and can use a wide variety of indicators.
- The trading platform executes the desired orders, all you need is an internet connection.
Incidentally, online trading not only brings plus points in terms of the ease of use of the platform. In particular, due to the analysis options, indicators and the various tools, the investor enjoys noticeably more comfort. For the times when one still drew chart diagrams oneself or made one’s own elaborate calculations are over.
In the meantime, online traders find a comprehensive selection of order types in their system, which they can execute independently when day trading with their favourite online broker of choice.
The personal trading plan
Since there are several order types, online traders can tailor their trading plan to their needs and make different settings in this context: Buy entries:
- Buy at the current market price (Buy Market Orders)
- Buy above the current market price (Buy Stop Orders)
- Buy below the current market price (Buy Limit Orders)
Sell entries:
- Sell Stop Orders: Selling above the current market price
- Sell Market Orders: Selling at current market price
- Sell Limit Orders: Sell below current market price
Exit orders:
- Stop Loss: Exit at a loss when the pre-set price is reached
- Take Profit: Exit with profit as soon as the pre-set price is reached
- Trailing stop orders: stop loss shift, depending on the price development
Another advantage of online trading from the trader’s point of view is the absence of restrictions. Accordingly, you are free to choose your trading strategy and adopt your own trading style. There are many different approaches:
- Scalping: aggressive short-term trading
- Intraday trading – opening and closing positions within one trading day
- Continuous trading
- Swing trading – risky exploitation of price fluctuations
- Automated trading with robots (“Expert Advisors”)
Online trading made many of these trading styles possible in the first place by eliminating the previously obligatory telephone exchange with the trader. Accordingly, one can speak of a trading revolution that now builds a bridge between numerous investors from all over the world and the global financial markets.
Investors would be well advised to investigate to what extent the financial provider Tradixa offers these same advantages.
The disadvantages of online trading
Not all that glitters is gold, this statement also applies to online trading. Consequently, apart from the advantages, there are also a number of disadvantages that interested investors should take into account:
- Investors should keep a constant eye on price movements.
- The existence of fraudulent trading providers has led to great risks of loss.
- If wrong decisions are made, enormous losses can be expected.
- Compared to traditional trading, it is rather hasty.
- Investors should already be experienced in trading and build on resilient strategies.
Speculative day trading in particular is not suitable for investors who are dealing with the subject of trading for the first time. This is because the risk of not correctly assessing price developments is considerable, and because of the time pressure it is difficult to make adjustments.
Therefore, this form of trading is more suitable for particularly experienced or very risk-averse investors. If you belong to this group of people, day trading is an option for achieving results in a timely manner. In addition, one benefits, for example, from the elimination of fees for holding positions overnight.
Finally, these costs must also be included in the holistic examination of an investment. Moreover, one literally saves oneself a rude awakening in the morning if there were immediate and drastic price changes. Such “gaps” arise quickly due to negative reports about a company.
On the other hand, one quickly sees successes as soon as one can report a profit at the end of a trading day. Furthermore, it is relevant for day traders to compare the trading fees of the different brokers. Here it can be worthwhile to opt for a flat rate in the form of a fixed rate.
This is especially worthwhile if you trade with a high frequency and individual order fees would significantly reduce your profit.
Understanding the dangers
In order not to unnecessarily increase the risks and dangers of online trading, it is advisable to check through which service provider you want to trade on the markets. From our firm’s experience, a few questions have emerged that can be used to identify potential risks. Applied to the example of Tradixa, these would be as follows:
- Did the contact with Tradixa come about because of an unsolicited telephone call?
- Can official warnings about Tradixa be found?
- Does Tradixa promise exceptionally high returns or a guaranteed return and conceal or downplay the risks?
- What experiences have other investors already had with Tradixa, what is the prevailing opinion in forums?
- Is there an imprint on Tradixa’s website and can credible information about the company’s registered office be found?
- Is Tradixa controlled by a European financial supervisory authority and is the provider subject to state supervision?
- Are there any warnings from lawyers or law firms who support clients who have suffered losses in connection with Tradixa?
What to do in case of losses?
If you are concerned that you have been defrauded in trading, it is advisable to stop additional payments immediately. This applies in particular to the circumstance that the provider suggests additional payments to make up for deficits. In addition, one should attempt to recover the lost capital.
In this context, aggrieved investors can seek investor protection and turn to the lawyers of our law firm. We consider both civil and criminal law options and possible claims for damages against the financial provider and against involved payment service providers such as banking institutions.
“A private investor who loses money in online trading is by no means an isolated case. Many investors are fooled by the professional behaviour of the service providers and only realise too late that they are not responsible for their losses.”
Our recommendation is therefore not to despair, but to act swiftly and actively. Because the prospect of recovering the lost money is often greater than the aggrieved private investors assume.
