How AAAFx works



Enjoy raw ECN spreads and lightning-fast trade execution at very low cost. Low commission charges and low swap charges combined with our advanced technology make your trading experience exemplary in every sense. We do not impose any restriction on any trading strategy either.



3.4. Capacity
We act as an intermediary, by Straight-Through-Processing or hedging your orders to our Liquidity Provider(s), in a way to maintain (in our name) with the relevant Liquidity Provider the same open positions as those that you maintain with us.

"Execution" means the completion of clients’ orders by AAAFx’s through the trading platform(s) it makes available to you from time to time, where AAAFx acts as an intermediary, fully hedging and/or Straight-Through-Processing (STP) such orders to its Liquidity Providers.

9.9.2. AAAFx reserves the right to widen its variable spreads, disable trading to any or all instruments, adjust leverage, change its rollover rates and/or increase the margin requirements under certain market conditions including, but not limited to, when the trading desk is closed, around fundamental announcements, as a result of changes in credit markets, at times of extreme market volatility or when one or more Liquidity Providers have taken one or more of the above measures and/or when AAAFx deems that such exposure is risky and that it is not possible for AAAFx to mitigate its risks.

9.11. Negative Balance Protection
...AAAFx operates on a ‘negative balance protection’ basis which means that the client cannot lose more than his/ her overall invested capital (deposit)...


2.1. Execution Venues
(a) Model of executing clients’ orders All transactions carried out by AAAFX through the Platform are executed outside regulated markets, MTFs or OTFs.

Unless otherwise notified to you, AAAFX does not execute clients’ orders against its own book. This means that although AAAFX appears as the client’s counterparty in a transaction, all client orders are covered on a one-to-one basis, by the execution of transactions corresponding to each client order against third party Firms (“Liquidity Providers”), AAAFX acting as a Straight-Through- Processing (“STP”) Broker. In accordance with this method of execution of transactions, the execution venue for each transaction is the relevant Liquidity Provider, taking as well into account that the price of the client’s transaction is determined based on the price offered to AAAFX by the said Liquidity Provider.

(b) Selection of Liquidity Providers Although there is a multitude of available potential Liquidity Providers operating worldwide, the execution of orders by AAAFX with any one of these Liquidity Providers is subject to the opening of an account by AAAFX with the relevant Liquidity Provider(s) and to the establishment of a business relationship between AAAFX and each Liquidity Provider...


Triple A Experts Investment Services S.A. (“AAAFx” or “the Company”) is a member of the Athens Stock Exchange Members’ Guarantee Fund (the “Fund”), which is the applicable Investor Compensation Scheme for customers of Greek Investment Firms that are not credit institutions, which was established under the provisions of the Greek Act 2533/1997 (the “Law”).

Any compensation provided to clients by the Fund shall not exceed € 30.000. This limit applies to each clients’ aggregate claims against the Company.

AAAFx offers a great trading environment to the clients, and I am actually puzzled why it is so widely recognized. The trading conditions are on the same level of the top-tier forex brokers.
I sometimes miss some extra tools provided by it, but I hope the broker will develop some in the future.

Besides pretty interesting conditions, presence of several account types, trading platforms that are equally well-optimized and developed, there is also an opportunity to use free virtual private server.
Surely, there are some requirements to have it, for instance, your deposit has to be as high as $5k, but anyway. It's almost nothing for rapid deal executio and complete absence of issues occurring with connection. But some traders may claim that it's high a bit. People are different.

Same for me! I already trade here for almost three years and can state this broker is a legit one.

Joris de Leeuw

I appreciate this broker for reliability and good trading conditions. As for reliability, I trade with this broker for nearly 3 years, so there’s nothing more to say. It’s not a scam.
As for good trading conditions, I opted ECN account for good spreads which helps me to trade more productively.
