Trading Gruppe Review: AI Capital Management, Not Licensed

Trading Gruppe presents itself, on its German-language site tradinggruppe.com, as "an AI platform for active capital management" and appeals in particular to businesses with surplus cash. Australia's market regulator ASIC has recorded the operation in an unauthorised-activity warning.
🚩 What Does the Site Promise?
The site describes continuous analysis of market data, interest rates and macro indicators, with positions adjusted automatically within user limits by a statistical risk model. The onboarding process has three steps: linking accounts, "calibrating" the model to the user's risk tolerance, and continuous optimisation. Visitors are offered a free strategy call and a demo. In schemes of this kind, the call is followed by a request to deposit money, trades are said to be run by an "expert" or an algorithmTR, and obstacles appear at the withdrawal stage.
