Blink Trades Review

About Blink Trades

Blink Trades (operating via blinktrades.com) claims to be run by Blink Trade Ltd, incorporated in St. Lucia under Registered Number 2023‑00147, with address at Ground Floor, Sotheby Building, Rodney Village, Rodney Bay, Gros‑Islet, Saint Lucia, and an office in Dubai. It offers trading via MetaTrader 5 (desktop, mobile, WebTrader), with asset classes including forex, indices, commodities, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. Account types include Standard (minimum deposit $/€ 200, spreads from 1 pip, no commission) and Premium (minimum deposit $/€ 5,000, interbank spreads, commission of $0.05 per microlot), with leverage up to 1:500. Deposit and withdrawal methods reportedly include bank transfers, Visa/Mastercard/Maestro, and cryptocurrencies. ()

However, there is no record of regulatory authorization. Blink Trades is unregulated—there is no license from authorities such as the Financial Services Authority of St. Lucia, which does not license forex brokers. No records exist with major regulators such as FCA, ASIC, CySEC, or equivalents. The broker’s claims of being regulated are unsupported. ()
