Abstract: Multiple traders have reported severe slippage and platform manipulation at CloneMarket during major news events. This exposure sheds light on the unfair trading conditions that have resulted in massive unwarranted losses for retail traders.
An alarming number of reports have surfaced recently regarding the trading conditions at CloneMarket. Numerous traders have come forward with evidence of severe and seemingly intentional slippage, specifically occurring during high-volatility macroeconomic news releases. These technical “glitches” have consistently resulted in stop-loss orders being triggered far beyond the requested price, leading to massive, unfair losses.
While a certain degree of slippage is expected in real market conditions during extreme volatility, the extent and one-sided nature of the slippage reported at CloneMarket suggest malicious platform manipulation. Many users suspect the broker is operating a “B-book” model and actively trading against its clients by artificially widening spreads and manipulating price feeds.
Key Complaints:
- Stop-loss orders are regularly executed at prices significantly worse than the market rate at the time.
- Take-profit orders during profitable spikes are frequently delayed or rejected entirely due to “off quotes” errors.
- Traders report that their platforms completely freeze in the seconds leading up to major data releases like Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) or CPI.
“I had a stop-loss set clearly, but my trade was closed out 50 pips away from my target, wiping out my entire account balance,” explained a devastated CloneMarket client. “When I showed them the price charts from three other independent brokers, none of them had the price spike that triggered my stop out. It’s blatant theft.”
Traders rely on the integrity of their broker’s price feed and execution speed. When a platform systematically disadvantages its users through engineered technical issues, it breaches the fundamental trust required for retail trading.
Conclusion: The overwhelming evidence of severe slippage and platform manipulation makes CloneMarket highly unsafe. Traders are advised to close their positions and migrate to transparent, A-book or strictly regulated brokers to ensure fair execution.
