SmartProfitFX vs 4T Markets

Formax became 4T Markets

• Companies House lists 4T MARKETS LIMITED as active under company number 08891879.
• The same Companies House record lists FORMAX PRIME CAPITAL (UK) LIMITED as the company's previous name from 24 February 2014 through 10 November 2021.
• Current 4T pages identify 4T Markets Limited, company number 08891879 and FCA FRN 624225.
• The old formaxprime.co.uk domain has no current DNS answer, while formaxmarket.co.uk redirects away from an active broker site to a third-party directory.

The current homepage excludes retail investors

• The 4T homepage states that 4T Markets Limited does not offer its services to retail investors.
• The homepage says website information, content and contact details are intended for professional and institutional clients only.
• Other current 4T pages still contain retail-client wording, so the restrictive homepage statement should control listed eligibility copy until 4T clarifies otherwise.

MT4, MT5 and rolling spot FX

• 4T's platform page describes MT4 and MT5 for desktop, web and mobile with charting tools, technical indicators, one-click trading and Expert Advisor support.
• The forex page says 4T offers spot currency trading in the form of Rolling Spot and lists a range of currency pairs.
• The technology page describes an aggregation engine combining liquidity sources in real time and infrastructure in London, New York and Tokyo.
• The execution policy says orders are placed on MT4 or MT5 and immediately hedged with liquidity providers using a straight-through processing model.

Published pricing needs confirmation

• 4T's charges page says opening an account is free and its main revenue source is the market spread.
• The charges page displays indicative starting spreads of 1 pip for EUR/USD, 1.1 pips for USD/JPY, 1.4 pips for GBP/USD and 1.5 pips for USD/CAD.
• The charges page describes overnight financing and says spreads vary by instrument and should be checked in the live platform.
• The charges page lists a £50,000 minimum for a new account, while the forex page's FAQ block says the minimum deposit is $1,000. Applicants should obtain current written terms before funding.

Use only the genuine 4T details

• The FCA Register identifies 4T Markets Limited under reference number 624225 as authorised for specific activities and product types.
• The FCA's UCFX Markets / BL Markets clone warning says those names are unauthorised clones with no connection to the genuine 4T Markets Limited.
• The FCA clone warning gives the genuine firm's website as www.4t.co.uk and the genuine phone number as +44 20 3819 3100.
• 4T's own homepage states it is not affiliated with BL Markets or UCFX Markets Indicator.

Leveraged FX risk remains substantial

• 4T's risk disclosure says leverage can cause a small underlying-market movement to have a disproportionate effect and can result in loss of the entire margin amount.
• The terms say the trading service can produce losses exceeding the cash balance held on the account and may require additional funds at short notice.
• The terms warn that open trades may be closed and working orders cancelled without notice if additional funds are not supplied.
• The current homepage displays a high-risk warning for spot FX and CFDs and says a large share of retail CFD accounts lose money, even though the same homepage currently excludes retail investors.

• You qualify as a professional or institutional client under 4T's current onboarding rules.
• You want the current 4T Markets Limited relationship rather than searching for the retired Formax name.
• You want MT4/MT5, rolling spot FX and 4T's published aggregation and execution model.
• You have independently verified the genuine www.4t.co.uk route, current written costs, deposit minimum and risk terms.
