Who is Trendo?
Trendo markets itself as an online trading and investment service. Its public site is presented at https://fxtrendo.com/. As with most operations of this kind, the polished front end conceals a lack of the basic protections a real, regulated broker is required to provide.
Is Trendo regulated?
We could find no evidence that Trendo holds a valid licence from any recognised financial regulator. Trading client funds without authorisation is one of the strongest indicators of a scam — there is no regulator to complain to, and no protection for your money.
Red flags we identified
- Aggressive “account managers” coaching clients to deposit
- Account dashboards that show “gains” with no real market exposure
- Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
- No verifiable licence from a recognised financial regulator
- Opaque or anonymous corporate ownership
Our analysis
Trendo claims to be operated by Trendo Markets Ltd , a company registered in Saint Lucia. While we have confirmed its registration in the database of the Saint Lucia International Financial Centre (IFC), it is critical to understand that this registration grants the company International Business Company (IBC) status only, which does not equate to financial license. Importantly, the IFC does not regulate or license forex trading activities, and Saint Lucia currently has no recognized financial regulatory authority overseeing forex or securities markets. Trendo’s claim of being regulated by the IFC is misleading and inaccurate. In reality, the platform likely operates without any legitimate financial oversight from a credible regulatory body. Therefore, Trendo is a scam.
Can you recover money lost to Trendo?
If you have deposited with Trendo, do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw — that is part of the trap. Funds sent to operations like this can sometimes be traced on-chain and pursued through the exchanges and processors that received them. Whether recovery is realistic depends on how you paid and how quickly you act.
