Gerchik & Co vs ScoreCM Comparison

The professional approach, risk management systems, trading education, and the protection of traders' interests by the international Financial Commission, lend Gerchik & Co a sufficient degree of reliability and regulation.

ScoreCM is regulated by offshore FSU authorities in Dominica and Mwali, publishes licensing information and claims segregation of client funds, but lacks compensation schemes and has a brief operational history.

Gerchik & Co offers its clients a simple and quick account opening process. All that's required is to fill out the registration form on the website, choose the type of account, and enter personal details.

The ScoreCM registration process is swift: a concise form, an email with a password, and a step-by-step KYC wizard. Account funding is possible within a few hours.

Gerchik & Co provides an acceptable choice of trading accounts, making it attractive for traders with different levels of experience and investment goals.

Three account types cover basic needs, but there is a lack of variety: no cent, fixed-spread, ECN/STP, or Islamic accounts, and copy trading/PAMM services are absent.

Although Gerchik & Co offers competitive spreads and there are no commissions for withdrawing funds and no inactivity fees, the transaction commission may be significant for traders, especially those who conduct many transactions.

ScoreCM fees are moderate: $3.5 per lot on Pro/Elite accounts are competitive, but the Standard account, with a spread of 1.8 points and high swaps, is more expensive; the annual $25 inactivity fee slightly raises overall costs.

Gerchik & Co provides a wide range of deposit and withdrawal methods, allowing users to choose the most convenient option. Both traditional payment systems and cryptocurrency wallets are available.

The absence of internal fees combined with a broad range of methods makes deposits and withdrawals convenient.

Gerchik & Co offers a decent selection of trading instruments and markets with 66 currency pairs and over 300 CFDs on various assets. However, some brokers offer a broader range of products, including more cryptocurrency pairs and commodities.

ScoreCM offers roughly 60 CFDs, covering currencies, metals, oil/gas, indices, and a few cryptocurrencies. The absence of stocks and soft commodities renders the range noticeably poorer than that of most competitors.

MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 are reliable and functional platforms, but having Gerchik & Co's own innovative platform or mobile application could enhance this rating.

The MT5 desktop, web, and mobile platforms cover most needs, but the absence of alternatives (MT4/cTrader/TradingView) and social features restrict flexibility.

The analytical capabilities provided by Gerchik & Co appear to be very strong and multifunctional.

ScoreCM provides an economic calendar, a suite of calculators, a converter, and Autochartist — offering sufficient basic tools, though lacking proprietary reviews, webinars, and smart signals, resulting in only average analytics.

The broker offers various educational materials, including courses, video lessons, a book, and even an educational mobile app.

The text-based courses and extensive glossary provide a solid theoretical foundation, however without video content, webinars, and interactive elements, the ScoreCM educational package remains average for the market.

The broker provides numerous channels for contacting support, including telephone, email, Skype, Telegram-bot, online chat on the website, and the ability to create a ticket in the personal account.

Multi-channel 24/5 support, approximately 30-minute response times, and withdrawal requests resolved within 2–4 hours — a high level of service from ScoreCM.
