LQH Markets Review: Unregulated Broker With Growing Withdrawal Complaints

LQH Markets is an online trading brand run by LQH Integrated Ltd, offering forex, share CFDs, crypto CFDs, commodities, metals and indices on MetaTrader 5 with leverage up to 1:500. The entry point looks low , the Standard account starts at a $10 minimum deposit , but the record that matters is harder to square with that pitch. WikiFX scores the broker at 1.80 out of 10, and its data shows no regulatory licence on file.

Recent complaints add a second layer of concern. Users in several countries describe withdrawal requests that stayed pending or were rejected after profitable trading, and accounts being restricted or deleted. This review walks through the complaint pattern, the regulatory gap and the basics of the offer so you can judge whether to proceed before putting money in.

Complaint Pattern: Profits Made, Withdrawals Blocked

The most detailed complaint comes from a trader in Nepal. According to the complaint, the user deposited $1,099.70 and traded XAUUSD (gold) manually with small lot sizes, growing the account from just over $1,000 to more than $5,000. The user then submitted five withdrawal requests over two days totalling $4,700. All of them showed as pending or logged in the platform, but none were ever paid.

The complaint states that after the requests sat unpaid past the broker's own stated 24-48 hour window, an email from the “Compliance Team” arrived claiming the trading breached a “Restricted Trading Activities” clause, citing “manipulative tactics and high-frequency trading exploits” without ticket numbers or supporting data. The email said profits would be removed and only the original deposit returned.

The same arc repeats across the complaint record. Other users describe similar sequences , accounts terminated or deleted after profitable trading, and withdrawal requests rejected , with some traders going so far as to describe the platform as fraudulent. Across these reports the pattern is consistent: the account looks successful, then the withdrawal is contested, restricted or never completed.

Regulatory Warning: No Licence on File

WikiFX data shows no regulatory licence for LQH Markets. The registered country is Comoros, an offshore jurisdiction where client protection is typically weaker than under major regulators. The company profile itself describes the broker as “unregulated” and lists the main drawback as a lack of regulation.

The profile's WHOIS summary also notes that the domain lqhmarkets.com was registered in August 2024, pointing to a very short operating history. A broker this new and this lightly regulated leaves traders with little recourse if withdrawals stall , which is exactly the situation the complaints describe.

Basic Information

LQH Markets (LQH Integrated Ltd) presents itself as a multi-asset broker. According to the profile it was founded in 2024 and runs on MetaTrader 5, with leverage up to 1:500 across four account tiers: Standard (from $10), Pro ($1,000), Institutional ($100,000) and a zero-commission account. Spreads start from 0.0 pips on the higher tiers and around 1.5 pips on the Standard account.

Deposits are accepted in Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT with no deposit fee, and the broker states withdrawals are processed within 24-48 hours. That processing claim is worth holding against the complaint above, where a trader reports requests staying unpaid beyond the stated window.

Score and Influence

The WikiFX score of 1.80 out of 10 reflects the absence of regulation and the weight of withdrawal-related complaints. This is not a case where a strong licence offsets a few unhappy users; the licence is missing from the record and the complaints cluster around the same issue , getting money back out.

The offer itself is not unusual. MT5, crypto funding and high leverage are common across many offshore brokers. What separates LQH Markets is how little verified protection sits behind those features.

Final Thoughts

The confirmed facts here are sobering: no regulatory licence on file, a very recent launch, and a pattern of complaints in which traders describe profitable accounts being restricted or deleted before withdrawals are paid. Even allowing that complaints represent one side of the story, the combination is enough to make this a high-risk platform by any reasonable standard.

If you are still considering LQH Markets, verify the regulatory status yourself before depositing, start with the smallest amount you can afford to lose, and test a withdrawal early rather than after building profits. You can check the live score, complaints and any regulatory updates on the WikiFX App or the broker's WikiFX page before committing funds.
