We, at Growth One, are a FinTech company. Our goal is to provide you with a unique algorithm experience that delivers above market benchmark returns. We understood that many asset groups were overvalued due to years of monetary easing by central banks around the world. As a result, we have developed a smart algorithm that combines big data with real traders to generate high returns while retaining control over our investments. Since we trade both long- and short positions - our returns are uncorrelated. We are committed to providing our investors with the best possible investment opportunities. With our years of experience in the financial markets and the IT industry, we are confident in our ability to deliver on this promise.
Our flagship service is Growth One, but be sure to check out our other Growth services as well.

Growth One is a Forex investment fund that offers investors the opportunity to invest in a specialized market with a proven algorithm and experienced traders within a managed and concentraded portfolio.
Growth One uses advanced technologies and analysis to identify and largely automate profitable trading opportunities in the Forex market. The algorithm we have developed is based on technical analysis, our own knowledge, and a large amount of historical data, and is constantly being further developed to keep up with changing market conditions.
Growth One combines an innovative automated trading system with manual oversight to optimize returns and manage risk. We utilize a single entry strategy based on price action, applying a fixed stop loss to control risk and a trailing stop loss that moves with the profit when the position is in profit. This allows us to secure gains while minimizing downside risks.
This strategy is actively applied to XAU/USD and DOW30, where we closely monitor market dynamics and quickly adapt to price movements.
Additionally, we engage in swing trades on major currency pairs, holding positions for longer periods to capitalize on broader market trends and maximize potential returns. Our methodology is grounded in thorough technical analysis, leveraging extensive historical data and our proprietary knowledge, and is continually refined to adapt to evolving market conditions.
In addition to the fixed stop loss per trade, we have an overall equity stop loss set at 40% of the total capital to protect against extreme market scenarios, such as a black swan event.
This additional safeguard ensures that potential losses are contained, preserving the integrity of the trading strategy and protecting investor capital. The algorithm we have developed is based on technical analysis, our own knowledge, and a large amount of historical data, and is constantly being further developed to keep up with changing market conditions.
Although investing in Forex and metals can potentially yield attractive returns, it also comes with risks due to the volatility of the currency market. The value of currencies can fluctuate rapidly, leading to significant losses. We aim to achieve high returns, with acceptable drawdown periods. We are in the high risk spectrum of trading. We use different mechanisms to minimize the maximum loss, such as:
- A fixed stop loss per trade;
- An equity stop loss on the whole trading account, at 40% of the equity (daily);
- Various other total equity stops per strategy in case of a black swan event.
Our worst month was -31.5% and our best month was 126,8%.
On our website and investment guide, we offer you all our past performance data. It is important for investors to determine their goals and risk tolerance before deciding to invest in our fund.
Despite the use of various stop-loss mechanisms, there is theoretically a chance to lose 100% of your deposit in case of a Black Swan event.
No, investing is risky. Growth One does not accept any liability regarding the loss of funds. Always ask your financial advisor before considering Growth One and never invest more than you are comfortable with to lose in case of a total loss.
The average historical return of Growth One is 6% per month. The returns may vary depending on various factors, such as economic conditions, developments in the Forex market, the strength of our algorithm, and the skills of our traders.
The minimum deposit amount is $110.000.
There's a one-year lockup after your first investment. After the lockup-period, you can request a withdrawal at any time. However, if there is a significant open drawdown, your request will be temporarily held until the drawdown stabilizes, as a large withdrawal during this time could adversely affect the margin level of other users in the fund. For withdrawals, we use an MT5-PAMM investor account. Once processed, which typically takes 1-2 trading days, the funds will be transferred back to your MT5-PAMM investor account, from where you can withdraw them to your wallet or bank account.

Growth One charges a performance fee on the profit made by the fund on your portfolio. The fee is calculated at the end of each day based on the high-watermark principle. This means that the performance fee is only charged on the actual profit made and not on losses incurred in the interim period.
The formula for calculating the performance fee is: (Balance or Equity - High Water Mark) * Performance fee percent / 100. If the open profit and loss (PnL) is lower than 0 (negative), then the Equity is used in the formula. If the open PnL is bigger than 0 (positive), then the Balance is used in the formula. If the formula gives a negative value, then no performance fee is charged (it is set to 0).
Your performance fee is automatically deducted from your balance.
Your broker charges transaction costs for executing trades. Growth One works with partner broker Vantage, which offers one of the lowest price per traded lot in combination with zero spreads. The fee charged by broker Vantage ranges from $3.00 to $6.00 per full lot traded, which is automatically deducted from your account and is separate from Growth One's fees. This is one of the lowest, if not the lowest fee in the industry. In forex trading, 1 lot is equivalent to 100,000 of the base currency of the traded currency pair. For example, if you trade EUR/USD, 1 lot is equal to 100,000 euros.
We are not financial advisors. However, we understand that investors have their own unique investment horizons. Our general recommendation is using an investment horizon of at least 12 months. This means that you must be willing to commit your money for a longer period of time and not panic during short-term market fluctuations. It may take some time before you can fully benefit from the returns our fund can offer. It is important to be patient and trust in the experience and expertise of our algorithm and traders.
Monte Carlo simulations are used by Growth One to get a detailed picture of the possible risks and returns of our trades. This technique uses random variables to simulate different future scenarios and determine which results are more likely. Monte Carlo simulations can map out the potential impact of different circumstances on your investment. They can also help you understand the possible consequences of changes in the currency market or other factors that affect your investment. Keep in mind that Monte Carlo simulations do not guarantee future results and that the results are only an indication of a broad range of possible outcomes.
