Hidden Rules

They added hidden rules to their website that restrict you from using more than 75% of your Daily Drawdown.

Got my Funded Account denied because of this.

Sneaky tactics to deny Accounts & Payouts, Glow Node is a leading example of why prop firms are failing.

This is a scam company

This is a scam company. They banned customers in Vietnam without notice, and did not refund.

Thank you for your feedback. I apologize for any inconvenience and frustration caused by our recent actions.

Vietnam Customer Ban: After an internal review, we determined that we could no longer accept traders from Vietnam due to internal risk management reasons. We understand this decision impacts many users, and we should have communicated it more effectively. For that, we apologize.

Current Customers: Please note that we did not breach any agreements with our current customers from Vietnam. We are still allowing the final few to transition to live accounts. However, this decision means that new purchases or re-purchases are not possible for traders from Vietnam.

We strive to provide transparent and fair service to all our customers, and your feedback helps us improve. Please reach out to us directly so we can address any further concerns you may have.

It's a scam

It's a scam.
Had some problems with my account like getting stopped out to early, missed entries and lost my account due to daily drawdown while I had enough % left untill my account was failed.
Try to connect them about the issues but got an robot machine that couldn't help me any further. Tried to speak to someone but they reacted very impolite and harsh. Had to send some personal information over to help the issues but got never any reply.

In the groupchats if you try to ask something or say something they don't like your message get's deleted and you get a warning.

Would not recommend at all.

However, if the account breach is confirmed, we can offer you a retake discount as per our policy.

Customer Support: I am sorry to hear about your interaction with our support team. We strive to provide helpful and courteous service to all users, and your experience does not reflect our standards. We will address this internally to ensure better support in the future.

I passed the 2 phases successfully and during the review they sent me a message saying that I violated the rules during phase 1??? ok if I violated why did you give me patience until the funded to tell me? and what's more, their support sleeps upright.

We used to review every stage before progressing to the next one to prevent the exact issue you're referring to. However, due to a significant number of requests, we adapted our process to have one comprehensive review at the end.

Our website clearly outlines the rules, and unfortunately, breaching a rule means we cannot allow you to receive a funded account.

I understand this may be frustrating, and I appreciate your understanding.

Best regards,

I really can not recommend this company glow node

Sorry to give a bad review. But your support do not reply properly and do not found any solution. It was my mistake by ordering and I did not see that the broker is match trader! Match trader is a scam broker. This broker is not for proffesionell trader. Really high spread and on mobile the version is stocking. Also not much choice for indicators I am using… so I lost my challenge fee not because I am not a proffesioenll trader I use to work in other propfirms and receive payouts. But never I will choose glow node. I think there are some changes in the company in the negative way. So I would also not recommend it to anyone to work with glow node!!! Regards Amy B.

Hi Amy,

Sorry to hear about your experience.
Match trader are not a broker they are a platform and is a little unfair to review us as a company because of a third party platform we provide and you chose at checkout.

I took a deep look at your account and not really sure we can blame a trader platform for that out come of your account.
Placing 15 trades and open at the same time is always going to have the ability to cause issues with your daily drawdown.

I passed both phases and got refused a live 50k account - the company GLOWNODE is a FRAUD. I should've took all the complaints on discord as a warning and stayed away. In any case, I filed a charge back, honestly don't care if they backtrack and offer me the live account because I know theyll just make excuses during payout. STAY AWAY.

Definitiv eine 1 Sterne Bewertung

Definitely a 1 star rating. I received one payout and my second payout, which would have been higher and the refund of my challenge fee would have been due, was denied without actually breaking a rule or reaching a drawdown limit. And I didn't receive the 50% of my account balance that was supposed to be paid out despite breaking the rules. In addition, new rules are constantly being invented to make trading even more complicated and thus provoke breaches of the rules. Definitely hands off this bogus company!!!
Conclusion: - Poor payment behavior
- No Metatrader
- Very high platform fees
- Constant rule changes
- poor support

Addendum 08.05.24
After I wrote to support again yesterday, the rule that you still get a 50% profit split even if you break the rules was immediately removed today. That says it all about this company and their business practices!

Definitiv eine 1 Sterne Bewertung. Habe eine Auszahlung erhalten und meine zweite Auszahlung die höher ausfallen würde und die Rückerstattung meiner Challengegebühr fällig geworden wäre wurde mit verweigert ohne in Wirklichkeit eine Regel gebrochen oder ein Drawdown Limit erreicht zu haben. Und die 50% meines Kontoguthabens im Plus die trotz Regelverstoß ausgezahlt werden sollen, habe ich auch nicht erhalten. Zusätzlich werden ständig neue Regeln erfunden um das Handeln noch komplizierter zu machen und Regelverstöße damit zu provozieren. Definitiv Hände weg von dieser Propfirma!!!
Fazit: - Zahlungsmoral schlecht
- kein Metatrader
- Plattformgebühren sehr hoch
- ständige Regeländerungen
- schlechter Support

Nachtrag 08.05.24
Nachdem ich gestern dem support erneut geschrieben habe wurde heute sofort die Regel gestrichen dass man 50% profit split auch bei Regelverstoß noch erhält. Das sagt wohl alles über diese Firma und ihre Geschäftspraktiken aus!

Experienced very responsive support

My account was closed due to inactivity, but I contacted support and they kindly offered to re-activate my account one time to give me another chance which was much appreciated. I am learning to use MatchTrader which seems to be good for beginners. I use a separate lot calculator to make the trades. Support was very responsive in my experience. Not sure yet about payouts and I did not ask for a refund, so no experience with either of those situations, but since it was my fault that my account was inactivated, I thought it was good of them to re-activate it.

My Favorite Prop Firm

For me, Glow-Node is a fantastic Prop firm. They have designed their features to help traders to really get funded Accounts. The most beautiful feature I really like is "No time limit" for every trader to do the Challenges.
In my humble opinion for this feature alone, Glow-Node deserve more than 5 Stars.

Dashboard is almost non existent

Dashboard is almost non existent, really hard to know where you stand on a challenge. Match trader is awful. Now they just took away refunds and choosing the option to increase drawdowns. Stick with more established firms.

Stay clear of this company

Stay clear of this company, clear signs of struggling.

The discord is packed with people not receiving payouts, weeks and months past withdrawal request. The CEO has completely stopped being active on discord, the support team just ignore half the requests.

They recently removed refunds for passed challenges, not just for new customers but on live challenges retrospectively. They increased prices without any notification. They also delete any posts highlighting major issues from their discord.

They do not offer all forex pairs. I asked for a refund based on all these issues and they just refused.

This used to be one of the best and most transparent prop firms, use at your own risk. I will stick to FTMO. The only reliable prop firm available in my experience.

Hi,

As a business we need to adapt to the current conditions and market conditions,

We are allowed to increase our prices. Where we see fit as we deemed prices to be too low for the current payout levels,

We agree we have had some payouts delays. Which we have been working hard to resolve.

Negative comments aren’t welcome in our discord.
Discord is for our community to chat freely and we don’t condone any toxic negativity that this whole industry is experiencing.
If people would like to raise an issue for us to resolve. We have prior channels for this

We have never denied a payout as long as people sick to our rules. You get paid.

We admit we have recently had mild daily’s to our payouts due to multiple reasons. However we have always paid everyone.
