Trading Platform Available
The platform available for trading at Zeta Hedge is web-based. Compared to industry standard Metatrader 4, it lacks automated trading, analytical tools and so on. In any case, we recommend using MT4 or MT5 for your trading platform. Forex traders praise MetaTrader's stability and trustworthiness as the most popular forex trading platform. Expert Advisors, Algo trading, Complex indicators, and Strategy testers are some of the sophisticated trading tools available on this platform. There are currently 10,000+ trading apps available on the Metatrader marketplace that traders can use to improve their performance. By using the right mobile terminals, including iOS and Android devices, you can trade from anywhere and at any time through MT4 and MT5.
Deposit & Withdrawal
The payment methods with Zeta Hedge are credit/debit cards and bank transfers. The broker also charges a withdrawal fee, 5% for withdrawals via credit/debit card, a $/€/£10 for SEPA bank transfers withdrawals and the rest of bank transfer will be charged a $/€/£25 fee.
Bonuses & Fees
Zeta Hedge claims to offer some bonuses. However, the bonus can only be withdrawn when a trading volume of at least 1 lot times for each $1. In any case, you should be very cautious if you receive a bonus. First of all, bonuses aren't client funds, they're company funds, and fulfilling the heavy requirements that are usually attached to them can prove a very daunting and difficult task. Remember that brokers who are regulated and legitimate do not offer bonuses to their clients.
Also, the broker also charges an inactivity fee. An inactivity fee is charged if there is no trading activity or a minimum of 3 opened positions for the amount of $/€/£100 for a period of 30 days or more (as from the first month).
