As someone who continuously monitors costs like swap fees in my trading, I have to approach PGM with a great deal of caution. The most immediate issue is that PGM operates without any valid regulatory status; their WikiFX profile explicitly notes "No Regulation" and flags "High potential risk." In my experience, this directly impacts trust and transparency—particularly with variable, ongoing costs such as swap or rollover fees. Unlike with regulated brokers where I can confirm fee schedules, disclosure policies, and dispute mechanisms, PGM’s lack of oversight leaves traders without a clear avenue for recourse or assurance that fees are being applied fairly. PGM’s platform suite does seem robust, supporting industry-standard systems like CQG and Bloomberg, which can be indicative of a professional setup. However, there's no publicly available information regarding their swap fee structure, which is unusual compared to mainstream brokers that publish these costs daily and allow direct comparison. For me, this lack of transparency is a significant negative, especially given that most regulated brokers openly advertise overnight rates, allow traders to estimate their carry costs, and provide data-driven historical rate logs. Without clear figures, and given the high-risk warning paired with unregulated status, I can't confidently say how PGM's swap fees compare. Personally, I would not risk overnight positions with a firm where costs or calculation methods aren't fully disclosed or verifiable, particularly since these fees can erode profits over time. In summary, for me, transparent brokers with regulatory oversight give far more confidence when assessing swap fee competitiveness, and PGM currently does not meet that standard.
