Trading conditions check

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I tested iq option for some time focusing mainly on pricing and execution for cfds. costs looked reasonable compared to few other platforms I tried.

web interface simple and trades open without issues. sometimes spreads felt higher during volatility, but overall still acceptable for my trading style.

User's recommendation: actually solid broker,but better test on demo first and compae pricing before using real funds

Enough appealing things

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Access to many forex pairs and upload custom indicators.
  • - Pleasant charts, customization; fast payments; quotes and data similar to top exchanges.

Overall my love for this broker. Yes, they dont stand out in particular with better trading conditions or exceptional execution, but the main job was done.

I get access to many forex pairs and could even upload my custom built indicators.

Well, there was a little bit of coding involved, but the convenience their platform could give was worth it.

To resume what appealed to me:

mentioned trading platform with pleasant charts and customization option

pretty fast payment system

no problem with quotes. Data is pretty similar with top exchanges

Just for the beginning it’s okay

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Intuitive platform makes trading easier.
  • - Pricing is good; spreads stay tight.
  • - Not ideal for advanced tools; helpful and easy to deal with.

I recommend this broker if you are just starting your trading career.

They created a very intuitive trading platform (well quadcode created, but you got what I mean) making trading less challenging at least from the technical side. In terms of pricing, they were a good pickm too.

Of course, spreads can be bigger for more volatile assets and during news, but still they keep them quote tight.

But once you develop and seek for more professional trading software and assets, in my case it was order flow futures trading, its time to say goodbye.

Anyway good broker for its niche. Helping and easy to deal with

Serious Violations and Platform Manipulation by IQ Option Against Me as a Diamond VIP Client

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - VIP benefits not delivered; manager left.
  • - Platform manipulation alleged; unfair trades.

Serious Violations and Platform Manipulation by IQ Option Against Me as a... - Image 3

I have been a client of IQ Option since 2016, and my account reached Diamond VIP status after trading over $1.2 million. Throughout my time with the platform, I have experienced several serious and alarming violations, including:

Failure to deliver the promised Diamond VIP benefits, despite meeting all eligibility requirements (e.g., my assigned account manager was deleted, and I did not receive the advertised priority services).

Clear evidence of platform manipulation, including suspicious price movements and trade executions that strongly indicate tampering and unfair trading conditions.

Refusal to provide a full and official account statement upon formal request, which is a basic financial right and critical for transparency.

Major and abrupt changes to licensing and user terms without any prior notice, negatively affecting my investment decisions and legal security.

Acceptance of deposits via unregulated and unauthorized intermediaries (such as individual Papara and Bitcoin transfers), raising serious concerns of illegal financial practices.

Occasional unjustified delays in withdrawal processing, even for small amounts contradicting their own stated policies.

These violations have caused me severe financial and emotional harm.

Therefore, I formally demand:

A full refund of my funds, along with fair compensation for the damages suffered.

An official and comprehensive account statement covering all transactions.

A formal apology and an internal investigation into the listed violations.

If these demands are not met promptly, I am prepared to escalate the matter through all available international legal channels against IQ Option.

Note: All evidence and documentation have been preserved and are ready to be submitted to the relevant authorities.

Recommendation:

I strongly advise staying away from IQ Option. The volume and severity of violations I have encountered are more than enough to serve as a serious warning to others and could serve as the basis for a historical case against the company.

Loss:
$950000

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: I strongly advise staying away from IQ Option

  • - Friday night EURUSD spiked and spreads jumped, my buy limit filled where needed with no slip; execution speed mattered for my continued trading.

There was a Friday night trade I still;; remember. EURUSD spiked, spreads jumped, my heart was in my throat, but the buy order limit filled right where I needed it.

No slip. I sat there, shaking, realizing execution speed really matters, thats why I survived and still trading here.

I’m satisfied with the platform

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The platform aims for simplicity.
  • - One account supports CFDs and options.
  • - The app has a proprietary trading engine and mobile trading is easy.

I like how they keep things as simple as possible. One account which you can use it to trade cfds, or options plus some other trading modes are included, but I keep to these two. And the trading app, they have their proprietary trading engine which is incredibly convenient and you can easly trade even from your phone.

Refusal to Provide a Copy of the Contract – Serious Lack of Transparency!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - No response for 65 days to my request for a 2016 contract.
  • - I have received no official documents or account statements.

Until today, April 27, 2025, I have not received any response at all, and my request has not been processed, nor has there been any response regarding the request. There is only evasion and complete disregard for messages.

=========================================

This response from IQ Option to my Trustpilot review does not address my request and instead provides a generic reply without offering a real solution وMy request is clear: I am asking for an official document of the contract that governed my relationship with your company when I opened my account in 2016.

I have been reaching out to your support team through multiple channels for 65 days without receiving any response.

I am facing complete neglect whenever I request any official document from the company . Directing me to contact support or email again is unhelpful, as I have already done that with no results.

The refusal to provide an official document raises serious concerns about the companys transparency and credibility. A reputable and legally compliant company should have no issue providing such documents to its clients. Given the numerous legal complaints and fines against IQ Option, your reluctance to provide basic documentation only reinforces these concerns.

I expect a clear and direct response addressing my request.

If I do not receive the requested document, I will be left with no choice but to escalate this matter further.

=========================================

I asked IQ Option to provide me with a copy of the contract I agreed to when I opened my account in 2016, which is a basic right for any client to ensure that I know the legal terms that bind me to the company. However, my request was completely ignored and not responded to, which raises serious questions about the transparency and legal practices of this company.

I noticed that during the 8 years of my dealings with iq Option Company, until now I have not received anything official from them, neither an account statement, nor a copy of the contract, nor any official records.

I have had very bad experiences with the company over the past 8 years and I will write about them in the reviews and highlight each problem separately for the benefit of all.

Any reliable company that respects its customers and abides by the laws should be able to provide this type of documentation readily.

Their refusal to provide me with the contract raises doubts about their credibility and perhaps an attempt to hide illegal terms or mislead customers.

If you are considering trading with this company, think twice! Not being able to obtain your own contract means that you could be exposed to significant legal risks without any real protection.

Recommendation: Stay away from this platform until they prove that they are a transparent company that respects the rights of their customers.

Loss:
$950000
Cons:
  • Complete disregard lack of transparency
  • Manipulation of licenses
  • Serious legal breaches in contract terms

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: "I strongly advise against dealing with IQ Option. My experience was disastrous: clear manipulation of trades, significant withdrawal delays, and a complete failure to honor the Diamond VIP account benefits. The company has consistently refused to provide a transparent account statement despite repeated requests, raising serious doubts about their integrity. Be warned — there is a high risk of losing your money without any real protection."
