Review analysis AI

HAST FOREX operates without a recognized financial regulator, relying only on a business registration in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Its claim of being 'regulated' is misleading, as SVG does not oversee forex brokers. Traders should exercise extreme caution due to the lack of investor protection. The elevated scam risk score of 52/100 reflects these concerns.

Best for
  • Traders seeking high leverage up to 400:1
  • Those comfortable with unregulated offshore brokers
  • Japanese-speaking traders looking for a local-language platform
Not for
  • Risk-averse traders requiring regulatory protection
  • Traders who prioritize low spreads and commission-free trading (ProSpread has high minimum deposit)
  • Investors needing multi-platform support beyond MT4

What HAST FOREX says about itself as stated by the broker · not independently verified by FXCanary

Company Overview

HAST FOREX claims to be a trustworthy financial services provider focused on continuous improvement and delivering unmatched trading value. According to its website, it is regulated and licensed by the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority under license number 25172 IBC 2018. The broker also asserts that it is trusted by thousands of traders worldwide and boasts 50,000+ active users, a 99.9% execution rate, and over 5 years of operational history.

Account Types and Trading Conditions

HAST FOREX offers two live account types: Standard and ProSpread. The ProSpread account is described as an advanced account for experienced traders, featuring an NDD ECN model with no commissions and minimum deposit of $10,000. The Standard account is designed for beginners to intermediate traders. Both accounts provide maximum leverage of up to 400:1, though leverage varies by account balance, and CFD leverage is fixed at 50:1. Trading units start from 0.01 lot, and the broker offers negative balance protection.

Platforms and Tools

The broker exclusively offers the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform, available for Windows, iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. HAST FOREX states that its MT4 version includes streaming news, one-click trading, advanced charting, a variety of order types, and support for automated trading via Expert Advisors (EAs). The broker also mentions a proprietary 'HAST Ratio Technology' software embedded in the platform.

Funding and Customer Support

HAST FOREX accepts deposits via bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and online payment services, with a minimum deposit of 10,000 JPY (approximately $70 USD). Withdrawals are processed via bank transfer only, incurring a fixed fee of 3,000 JPY, and typically take 2–5 business days. The broker claims to offer 24-hour multilingual customer support via phone, email, and live chat.

Additional Features

HAST FOREX promotes tight spreads, quoting USD/JPY from 0.2 pips and EUR/USD from 0.3 pips, though these are stated as reference values under normal market conditions. The broker also advertises account opening bonuses and deposit bonuses, as well as partnerships with technology providers such as Gold-i, Tecsys, and LMAX.

About HAST FOREX

Company Profile

HAST FOREX is the trading name of HAST Financial Group Ltd, a forex and CFD broker registered in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG). The company was established on 17 February 2022 and operates from an address at First Floor, First St. Vincent Ltd Building, James Street, Kingstown. The broker targets retail traders globally, with a particular focus on the Japanese market, as evidenced by its Japanese-language website.

Regulatory Status

HAST FOREX claims regulation by the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority (SVGFSA) under license number 25172 IBC 2018. However, FXCanary's records indicate no recognized financial regulator on file, and SVG does not exercise regulatory oversight over forex brokers. The SVGFSA registration is merely a business registration, not a financial services license. Traders should be aware that this provides no investor protection or compensation scheme.

Account Types

HAST FOREX offers two live account types: Standard and ProSpread. The Standard account has no minimum deposit requirement and is suited for retail traders, while the ProSpread account requires a minimum deposit of $10,000 and targets more experienced traders. Both accounts offer maximum leverage of 400:1, with CFD leverage capped at 50:1. The ProSpread account operates on an NDD ECN model with no commission charges.

Trading Instruments and Platforms

The broker provides trading in Forex Major and Minor pairs, as well as CFDs. Leverage is variable, reaching up to 400:1 for forex, and is adjusted based on account equity. The trading platform is exclusively MetaTrader 4 (MT4), supporting desktop (Windows), mobile (iPhone, iPad, Android), and tablet devices. A demo account is available for practice.

Funding and Customer Support

HAST FOREX accepts deposits via bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and online payment methods. The minimum deposit is set at 10,000 JPY (approximately $70). Withdrawals are processed via bank transfer only, with a fixed fee of 3,000 JPY and a processing time of 2–5 business days. Customer support is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, via phone, email, and live chat, with multilingual support.

Target Audience

HAST FOREX appears to target retail forex and CFD traders, particularly those in Japan and other Asian markets. The broker's offerings, including high leverage and flexible account types, may appeal to both novice traders (via the Standard account) and experienced traders (via the ProSpread account). However, the absence of robust regulatory oversight means it is best suited for traders who understand the risks of trading with unregulated offshore brokers.
