If you are a forex trader from South Africa you may have heard of JP Markets, a broker that claimed to be "Africa's biggest forex broker". The broker however didn't have a good reputation among traders, as it has been consistently accused of misconduct.
According to an article from IOL, JP Markets have been accused of not paying out client withdrawals, not posting client’s deposits to their trading accounts and even manipulating data feeds.
Because of the repeated abuses, JP Markets is now under final liquidation as per the order of the Gauteng High Court. On liquidation, the licence of JP Markets was automatically withdrawn.
