FXTradingVision claims to be one of these solutions, with over 200,000 subscribers and a never-ending supply of signals and proof of success that any individual could wish for. Yet, a further examination of the offering and a look deeper beneath the surface will show that a very cunning scam has been put together.

The Foundation of Deception: Image Over Substance
The first and most powerful weapon that FXTradingVision has is psychological manipulation. The central theme of the channel consists of a mixed bag of free signals and, most importantly, a never-ending feed of pictures and videos of the face of the owner of the channel, who is claimed to be living a life of luxury in Dubai and visiting exotic locations, all of which was achieved through trading FOREX and gold.
This imagery is not random – it’s a classic psychological ploy. He connects his character with unparalleled wealth so that he sidesteps the rational and analytical faculties of the mind of a prospective subscriber and speaks right to his emotions and desires. The implication is obvious: “I’m living the life – follow me and buy my VIP service, and you can be living the life, too.” And so “proof by lifestyle” is meant to take the place of actual and verifiable trading performance, which, of course, is horrible.
The Signal Analysis: A Mathematical Guarantee for Failure
The free signal service is available through the channel and has undergone a rigorous back-test over a period of 6 months. The results are conclusive: the system is flawed and engineered to register many small, psychological “wins” that position the followers for a disastrous downturn.
An Example of a Typical Signal FXTradingVision:
XAUUSD BUY 3998
TP 1 4000
TP 2 4001
TP 3 4002
TP 4 4025
SL @ 3986
TP 1 - 20 pips,
TP 2 - 30 pips
Stop loss - 120 pips
Deconstructing the Scam Strategy:
The pitfall is within the architecture of the signal itself. TP1 is usually set very close to the target attainment level, and the stop loss is set relatively far away. This strategy could very well indicate that if there is a small movement of the prices, the first target would be attained. This is the impression of a high win rate that might be misleading to the layman's understanding. After the attainment of TP1, a message follows: “Move your SL back to entry on this one." The trade is then left alone, risk-free, for the remaining targets.
What’s wrong with that? The truth is a kind of financial death by a thousand cuts.
The Illusion of Profit: The trader might employ a “half-close” technique at TP1, closing half of his trade for a profit of 50%. He could lock a small profit of only 10 pips (half of the 20-pips profit).
The Reality of Risk: The first risk of the trade, however, stood at a massive 120 pips.
The Mathematical Trap: A risk and reward ratio of such magnitude will require that you win 12 trades before you can recover one that you have lost.
Now, compare that mathematical truth with the back-tested data that the average win rate of the channel is 34%. This indicates that the trade will hit the massive stop-loss of 120 pips a good 66% of the time. This is a total misery kind of trading system. The small profits are very addicting to the mind, but are of no mathematical significance when considering the large losses that the trade faces. The average trade is a win but gets closed immediately after hitting the first target, whereas the losses are disastrous.
The Final Verdict: An Unequivocal Scam
This is a pathetic scamming group that uses old-school methods of convincing viewers to buy VIP membership. This scamming operation is a house of cards that stands on three pillars:
Social Proof Deception: Misrepresenting the reach (4k views vs. 205k subscribers) and engagement to project popularity and trustworthiness.
Luxury Lifestyle Bait: The pictures and videos of a glamorous lifestyle are used as the first kind of “proof of success” of trading.
Mathematically Flawed Signal Strategy: The free signals are designed to give a false sense of frequent win occurrence and are mathematically flawed to ensure a long-term account blowout.
The fake screenshots of profits and the luxury video will serve as a proof of access and will deceive newbies that won’t be able to backtest the system properly. The person behind the video is a liar and a scammer.
0/10 TRUST SCORE
Our final, absolute recommendation is: STAY AWAY! Do not follow these signals. Under no circumstances should you put any of your funds into the VIP program of this trading channel. The most lucrative trade you will ever make is to safeguard your funds from the predators and the mathematically fraudulent program of this trading channel.
