Binary options in Malaysia: banned for retail traders

Retail binary options are not legally available in Malaysia. We don't rank or recommend any binary options broker here. Using a VPN to get around a broker's country block breaks its terms and can get your account frozen.

Why:
The Securities Commission Malaysia lists binary options platforms on its Investor Alert List of unauthorised entities.

No. Brokers verify your ID and address before paying out. Trading through a VPN breaks their terms and can lead to a frozen account and lost funds.
