Binary options is more of a ponzi scheme and gamble if you ask me, especially when your broker decides to invest on your behalf. That's how I lost all my funds to a scam company. They claimed they invested on my behalf, imagine!  Anyway, long story short, I made research and got connected to a professional from a recovery firm do an investigation on these guys and I got my money back within days of my contact getting in touch with the brokers. Hiring a lawyer is useless so don't waste your time, I was lucky to get connected to this guy. You can shoot me an email on marvintidd04 at gmail dot com if you have similar situation, I'd be glad to help
