Attention! Dear traders!
In July on many forums there was the information about unconscientiousness of PoltekFX. Probably you received such information by email too. The administration of the company would like to clear this situation.
Amin Hakim and his group of traders used arbitrage methods of FOREX cheating on our broker. These methods enabled them to make the profit of around 100% during short period of time. Amin Hakim himself and his group of traders admitted their actions as cheating.
Such method is dangerous for traders, as brokers can see cheating and most often delete such orders. In this case most of brokers return initial deposit, some delete only positive orders,thereby zeroizing an account, and deposit is not paid back.
We did not delete profits of the customer,all the orders were saved. We paid not only the deposit but a part of profit too.
At present we’ve got a question: how should we act in the same situations in the sequel?
The most effective way of struggle against cheaters is introducing various limitations on trading for ALL traders. For example:
- spreads widening during news
- Mounting large slippage for all traders
- Enlargment of order execution time, right up to manual execution.
- Prohibition of orders modification on news and so on.

However, it is honest traders who suffer from introducing such limitations directed against cheating. We do not strive for taking excess pip from our customers,that’s why we decided to carry out the survey. Your opinion is important to us.We offer to answer the following questions:
1. Should we deteriorate rules for all traders for cheating protection purposes?

2. Should we continue offering good trading conditions to customers and just return funds to cheaters?
 
seems like the broker itself can clearly identifies those kind of traders..
i think there would be no problem for continuing good trading condition while at the same time identifying cheaters..
just a opinion.. :)
 
You can clarify which trading styles are prohibited, instead of applying various limitions for all traders. Amin Hakim is using straddle strategies to gained profits, so if you think he is a cheater by trading in this way, you can advise traders not to use them. Punishing other traders that using other trading style wouldn't be good for your reputation, and i'm sure good business model and honest are better in the long run, IMO.
