After a long delay, it look like GFC is ready to roll.
There were some losses due to the sudden drop in Gold prices - these were unavoidable!!
Will post updates as and when available. |

Hey gulliver,
Thanks for the update, I was waiting for news that the funds were cleared before I posted.
Hopefully that will be soon, and we can see some partial trading results for this month.

Please note that those of you that are considering this program, it has been moved to the "invitation required" folder.
The Admin has decided that only current members can recommend potential investors. The maximum number of investors is still 1,000.
Please use the e-mail link to request access if you want.

What are the returns ? |
Returns are variable based on trading results - anticipated to be between 10% - 20% monthly. |

One would expect them to take a cut off of the top for all their efforts. This is meant for people that do not trade for themselves. |

Most of the information is posted on their website. In a nutshell, after the brokers fees, the program admin takes 25% of the net. There is also an allowance for a reserve fund which is to kick in in case of losses. There are web costs and maintenance. There are generally higher expenses when running a program than when one person trades on a personal basis. |

Don't be so naif levaz , I know a lot of traders who making more then 20% a week and also running website is not costing that much to maintain.
But of cource its your choice to follow them and to invest.
Have a nice weekend

I don't think that I am being naive. This is their strategy - it is a less agressive trading strategy. There are several cuts - brokers, admin, reserve, expenses, mods, etc.
Trading personal funds from home/office is not as expensive - time + trade fees - that is it. Paying for establishing an IBC, Business account, security, servers, etc. amount to a bit, all before any profits are seen. This may be small amounts but they do add up.
I would much rather a modest 15% than a risky 60% with a 40% exposure. I am aware of programs which offer much higher returns with a possible max of 30% drawdown - I am not interested in those. And I would not recommend those programs to anyone. |

The first month was not bad with a double digit return for only partial month trading.
So far so good!!

I hate to sound skeptical but I'd have to say those 'traders' are pulling your leg. Only 3%-5% of 'real' traders make a consistent return month to month and NONE that I've ever looked into (which is about 40) make double digit WEEKLY returns.
If that was the case, you certainly have no reason to be here!! Just give them $5K and retire a millionairre by the end of next summer. It would certainly make for a WONDERFUL Christmas. |

Hello viptrader,
could you recommend some of those traders doing 20%? We are very interested on them if they trade for true. |

Hm, I couldn't access the website (forum) yesterday. Today I get access but there is no content anymore. I hope it's just a technical problem - guess we'll find out soon enough. |

Probably is a technical problem, we will contact one of the external auditors and find out.

There is some information in the comments on HansG's Blog. The server has crashed and the host is having problems restoring the data. It's taking quite a long time though. |

The GFX Admin has been in the HYIPD discussion thread and explained what's going on. As for today, the GFX Frontpage is up but there's nothing of substance when you click on it. A little at a time I guess. |

I just checked again and the forum is back up. As far as I can tell everything seems to be intact.
Let's hope it doesn't happen again. |

Ya. In this arena, inaccessibility is usually equated with the DEATH of the program. My heart can't take too many more! |
