I faced significant delays with my withdrawals. It took far longer than expected to receive my funds, and the customer support was not very helpful in resolving my concerns. I had hoped for a better experience given the broker’s advertised services.

I had a terrible experience with Rock-West. They automatically withdrew my profits without explanation when I tried to make a withdrawal. It feels like a scam, and I’m very disappointed with their handling of my account.

Rock-West has been quite reliable for my trading needs. The MetaTrader 5 platform is excellent, and I’ve found their execution speed to be decent. I appreciate the variety of instruments available for trading, which allows me to diversify my portfolio.
