Common questions

Questions, answered plainly

The things people ask before they open an account, and the answers we would give on the phone.

Is Cairnova Capital legitimate? What you can check yourself

Is Cairnova Capital a scam?

No, but do not take our word for it. Before you deposit anything, check three things: where client money is held, whether a withdrawal returns to the method you paid with, and whether every commission or spread is named before you confirm. All three are answered on this page, and you can hold us to them.

Is my money kept separate from the company at Cairnova Capital?

Yes. Client deposits sit in a segregated account with regulated payment partners, separate from company funds, so they are never used to run the business. That does not remove market risk, a position can lose value and no honest platform will tell you otherwise.

Can I withdraw whenever I want?

Yes. A withdrawal returns to the same method you deposited with, normally within one business day once KYC verification is complete. You do not have to explain why you are withdrawing.

How do I know if Cairnova Capital is a regulated broker?

Cairnova Capital operates under CIRO oversight and OSC guidance for Canadian clients. Ask your analyst for the specific registration details before you deposit, any licence can be checked in the public register yourself.

What is the catch, how does Cairnova Capital earn money?

From a commission on completed trades and from paid training, and from nothing else. We take no share of your deposit and we do not earn when a position loses. Every commission is shown before you confirm.

How do AI trading signals work exactly?
