Guantong Futures is a forex & CFD broker based in China, established in 1996. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 3.8 out of 10, which we rate as Poor — above the industry average of 3.3/10. High-risk profile — proceed only with caution and small amounts.
Guantong Futures's licence comes from an offshore jurisdiction (CFFEX). Offshore regulation is far lighter than tier-1 oversight from bodies like the FCA (UK) or ASIC (Australia): there is usually no compensation scheme, and recovering funds can be difficult if the broker runs into trouble. Treat it with extra caution and verify the licence on the regulator's own register.
Guantong Futures provides access to Commodities futures, financial futures, and options business. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, Guantong Futures carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.

What does "offshore regulated" mean?
It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.
Can I withdraw funds easily from Guantong Futures?
