Afraid of Deposit due to Fraud, This Customer Has Withstood 5 Years at HSB Investment
JAKARTA - The rampant cases of fraud disguised as trading and investment make many people more cautious before placing funds. Various modes, ranging from depositing funds, closed groups on social media, to promises of fixed profits in a short time, often become traps that are detrimental, especially for novice traders.
This condition was also felt by Dwi Ardiansyah, an employee who started to learn about trading since 2020. His interest arose not because he wanted to find a shortcut, but a desire to understand financial instruments independently in the midst of an uncertain economic situation.
"At first I was interested because I saw trading as one of the instruments that could be studied in financial management. But what I was most worried about was the security of funds, especially when I had to make a deposit," said Dwi, quoted, Monday, January 26.
His experience witnessing various cases of customer funds being held by brokers, both locally and abroad, makes him extra cautious. According to him, the feeling of security in trading does not only come from the ability to read the market, but also from the certainty that funds can be withdrawn according to applicable regulations.
Learn the Plan and Avoid the ShortcutsInstead of rushing to chase results, Dwi chose a more cautious approach. He studied the basics of trading gradually, starting from technical analysis, price movement patterns, to enriching the literacy from various educational sources.
For him, trading is not about the speed of results, but rather how the process is carried out with discipline and measured. This principle then formed his way of thinking in making decisions.
Legality is the Main ConsiderationIn choosing a trading platform, Dwi places the aspect of legality as a priority. He finally used HSB Investment, a platform that has been registered and supervised by the Commodity Futures Trading Supervisory Agency (BAPPEBTI), OJK, and Bank Indonesia, and supported by official clearing institutions.
"For me, the important thing is that the platform is clear and legal. Many cases of fraud actually start from brokers who do not have official permits," he explained.
One of the biggest concerns in trading on the app is when funds are difficult to withdraw. However, the experience of withdrawing funds (withdraw) that runs smoothly and according to procedure is the main reason Dwi has lasted more than five years at HSB Investment.
During the use of the platform, he assessed that the transaction process was structured, so that trading activities could be carried out more calmly. Transaction results can also be managed according to your financial planning.
Focus on Consistency and Risk ManagementEven though he has experience in trading activities, Dwi emphasized the importance of maintaining expectations. He considers sustainability to be much more important than chasing big profits in a short time.
"We must not be greedy. When conditions are in accordance with the plan, it is important to maintain discipline and not to overdo it. In addition, consistency and risk management are also important," he said.
He also reminded that market movements are greatly influenced by external factors, such as global economic policies and geopolitical conditions, which need to be understood before making decisions.
In the midst of the rampant case of investment fraud, Dwi's story is a reminder that building trust does not come instantly, but rather through the process of learning, discipline, and mature decisions. Keep in mind, trading activities have risks and require mature understanding and management.
