Valutrades has traded from London since it was set up in 2012. The FCA has authorised its main entity, Valutrades Limited, since April 2013, under reference number 586541, and this firm can legally hold and control client money.
In 2019 the group also opened a Seychelles branch under the local FSA, which lets traders outside the UK use higher leverage than FCA rules allow. Traders can use MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, or a FIX API connection, with ECN spreads from 0.0 pips plus a commission.
Company filings show Valutrades Limited made a net loss of about 2.59 million pounds in 2024, even though revenue rose 27 percent that year. WikiFX has also logged isolated trader complaints about slippage and stop loss execution, so it is worth reading the full order execution policy before you trade.
