    CFTC Regarding GFT Business Practices
    Dear Sirs,
    I thought you might want to know about the business practices at GFT (Forex Brokers)
    This factor against traders is the brokers themselves in their business practices.
    GFT does NOT allow you to have a Demo account unless you open a "LIVE" account and deposit a minimum of
    $2500. They will allow a Demo account for thirty days, then they hound you constantly to open a Real Account. I
    mean a lot of pressure. So that is what I did after being Bullied by them.
    A few months later after opening a "Live account, I logged into my trading platform and noticed the balance is no
    longer at $2500. GFT decided to take (steal) $50 out of my account and call it an inactivity fee. This just isn't
    right, and no other Forex Broker that I know of does this to their clients.
    If you want to regulate something go after those Brokers in their unscrupulous business practices.
    Sincerely,
    Angela Hackler
