DCFX claims to hold four regulatory licenses. However, upon investigation, we found that only one of these licenses is legal and official, while the other three are suspicious clones of other legitimate companies' licenses.
The legitimate license issued by the Jakarta Futures Exchange (JFX) is a retail forex license with the license number SPAB-064/BBJ/04/04.
Regulated Country | Current Status | Regulated Authority | Regulated Entity | License Type | License Number |
![]() | Regulated | Jakarta Futures Exchange (JFX) | PT DEU CALION FUTURES | Retail Forex License | SPAB-064/BBJ/04/04 |
The other three licenses are all cloned from other companies: the Straight Through Processing (STP) license issued by the Financial Conduct Authority is cloned from Dupoin UK Ltd., the Retail Forex License issued by Badan Pengawas Perdagangan Berjangka Komoditi Kementerian Perdagangan is cloned from PT DUPOIN FUTURES INDONESIA, and the last license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore is cloned from DUPOIN SINGAPORE PTE. LTD.
In conclusion, the regulatory status of DCFX is quite suspicious, and caution should be exercised.

The leverage offered by DCFX is limited to a maximum of 1:1000 for both account types, which is considered quite high and poses a significant risk to you. Many countries have already banned such high levels of leverage due to the associated risks.

The Standard account offers spreads from 1.2 pips, with no commissions charged on forex, commodities, and indices, 0.4% per lot on stocks and cryptos trading. The Zero Accounts provides raw spread from 0 pips on forex, with a commission of $7 per lot on forex and commodities, indices, and 0.4% per lot on stock and cryptos trading.
