CHAOS

CHAOS, operating under the official domain chaosqh.com, is a Hong Kong-based financial services provider that is part of the Chaos Ternary Futures Group. The entity under review is Chaos International Financial Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chaos Ternary Futures Co., Ltd., a well-established Chinese futures company founded in 1995. According to our records, CHAOS was established in Hong Kong on September 21, 2017, and is registered at Suites 1108-11, 11/F, ICBC Tower, 3 Garden Road, Central, Hong Kong.

The company describes itself as an overseas wholly-owned subsidiary of Chaos Ternary Futures Co., Ltd., founded in 2016 with support from the parent company and shareholders. It has two subsidiaries: CIF Securities Futures Limited and CIF Asset Management Limited. The group's parent company is listed on the National Equities Exchange and Quotations (NEEQ) in China (stock code 871102) and is majority-owned by Shanghai Chaos Investment (Group) Co., Ltd., a private investment firm.

CHAOS holds two derivatives trading licenses according to our regulatory records. The company is regulated by the China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) with a Derivatives Trading License (AGN) in China, and by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) in Hong Kong with a Derivatives Trading License (AGN). Both licenses are listed as 'Regulated' in our database. The SFC license is a significant indicator of oversight, as Hong Kong is a reputable jurisdiction for financial services regulation.

It is important to note that the CFFEX is an exchange rather than a primary regulator; however, holding a CFFEX trading license implies the firm is a clearing member of the exchange, subject to its rules and oversight. The SFC license provides comprehensive regulation under Hong Kong's securities and futures laws. This dual regulatory framework suggests a level of institutional credibility, though traders should always conduct their own due diligence.

As a futures brokerage, CHAOS primarily offers derivatives trading services, including commodity futures, financial futures, and options. The parent company's website indicates membership in all five domestic Chinese futures exchanges and provides a full suite of services: futures brokerage, investment consulting, asset management, risk management, and overseas financial derivatives. The Hong Kong subsidiary likely extends access to international markets and products.

According to the group's public information, clients can trade a variety of asset classes including agricultural commodities, metals, energy, stock index futures, and government bond futures. The company also provides asset management through its subsidiary Chaos Tiancheng Asset Management (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., and risk management solutions via Chaos Tiancheng Capital Management Co., Ltd. This positions CHAOS as a comprehensive financial intermediary rather than a simple retail forex broker.

The group's proprietary trading platform is the 'Tiancheng Qiyin' mobile app, which supports both futures and options trading with advanced order types such as cloud conditional orders, stop-loss/take-profit, and exercise orders. The platform offers market data including one-tick and five-tick data from Chinese exchanges, with additional data services available for a fee. The company also supports the widely used CTP (Comprehensive Transaction Platform) for trading.

In addition to mobile trading, the group provides PC-based trading software and web-based access. The website lists a national customer service hotline (400-998-8611) and emphasizes the ability to open accounts online via the 'Futures Account Opening Cloud' app. This range of technology options suggests a modern, accessible platform for traders.

CHAOS offers both individual and institutional account types, with a focus on serving institutional investors, spot enterprises, professional traders, and high-net-worth individuals. The company positions itself as a partner for sophisticated investors rather than speculative retail traders. The minimum deposit requirements are not publicly disclosed, but given the nature of futures trading, clients should expect to meet margin requirements that vary by contract.

The company's risk profile, as assessed by FXCanary, is 'Guarded' with a Scam Risk Score of 28 out of 100. This indicates a relatively low risk of fraud, but traders should still exercise caution. The company is best suited for traders familiar with the futures market and those seeking exposure to Chinese and international derivatives. It is less appropriate for retail forex traders looking for high leverage or a wide range of currency pairs.

CHAOS is part of a larger financial group with deep roots in China's futures industry. The parent company, Chaos Ternary Futures Co., Ltd., was founded in 1995 and is one of the first privately-held innovative futures firms in China. It has a nationwide presence with branches in major Chinese cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, and Wuhan. The group also includes asset management and capital management subsidiaries in Shanghai.

Chaos International Financial Limited (CHAOS) serves as the group's international arm, providing access to global markets and services. The company's two additional subsidiaries—CIF Securities Futures Limited and CIF Asset Management Limited—expand its capabilities in securities and asset management. This structure indicates a well-capitalized organization with multiple revenue streams, though it may introduce complexity in terms of cross-border regulatory oversight.
