カスタマ-サポート

Prospective and existing traders can reach the customer care through a number of channels. The fastest is through telephone which is available on a 24/5 basis. Only two phone numbers from UK and Cyprus are available for support. The phone numbers are easy to reach and the support assistants are willing to help. The quality of the support was described as ‘excellent’ by many reviewers who testified to the good service they received.

There is a “Get in Touch” form available on the website where clients can fill out a form. Response is by email and usually within a day. There are also two email addresses for support through email.

Instant web chat facility is also available on the website and can be accessed from every page. Response is quick but not as efficient as phone support. Some reviewers reported of incompetence on the part of the chat support assistants.

Though the website does not feature a ‘Frequently asked questions’ (FAQ) section, there are MT4 tutorials to help a newbie to start trading on the mobile or desktop platform.

リサーチ&教育

GMO Trading provides trader education in form of eBooks, videos and tutorial courses. These tutorials are beneficial to beginner traders. Intermediate traders will most likely benefit too but advanced traders will not find the trainings useful. These trainings are all offered free of charge.

The trainings focus on introduction to forex, terminologies used, trading instruments and MT4 training. It also covers trading styles, strategies and analysis. There are lots of useful articles on a variety of topics like; investment options, cryptocurrencies, financial assets, trading methods, technical analysis, etc.

They also hold webinars from time to time. On the website, there are daily review videos posted everyday to assist a trader in making his trading decisions. The website also features an Economic Calendar.

注目すべき点

GMO Trading provides webinars and daily review videos to assist the trader in making decisions. Free VPS and news alerts are provided only for Platinum account holders. Generally, they are still very new and so have not yet penetrated the forex market. So, there are no awards or industry recognitions. There are no promotions or marketing adverts reported for this broker. Though some reviewers have complained of difficulty in withdrawals, CySEC has not investigated or sanctioned the GMO Trading brokerage firm.

結論

GMO Trading is a new broker regulated by CySEC and operates within the EU region. Being regulated by CySEC means that funds are segregated, secure and their platform is equally safe for transactions. They provide a comprehensive beginner and intermediate education in form of videos and EBooks.

The few drawbacks border on the withdrawal and spread charges, which are comparatively high. Also, the limitation of customers to just the Eurozone is going to hamper the global acceptability of the brand. One also wonders how this will allow it compete with other Cyprus-based brokers. Overall, they are a good platform suitable for beginner and mid-level traders, but need to deal with the issues raised.
