Cons
Quotex is an offshore broker operating in a jurisdiction known for loose regulatory oversight. Unlike regulated brokers, it does not offer the same level of investor protection, dispute resolution, or fund security, making it riskier. Customer service is only available via email and social media, which can lead to slow response times in our experience. Competitors like Videforex provide 24/7 live chat and phone support, ensuring you get help quickly during technical or withdrawal problems. Quotex offers few market analysis tools and lacks real-time financial news, economic calendars, or in-depth research reports. Educational resources, such as courses, webinars, and expert insights, are also absent, making it less ideal for beginners.	No stock trading Few payment methods Zero pip spreads unavailable The global entity is regulated offshore
