Margin Requirements

Here are the margin requirements for our Raw and Classic Forex Trading Accounts:

Assuming you open one position (buy 1 lot) on a USD denominated account:

Forex

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size = 1 * 100,000 = 100,000 EUR

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 100,000 / 500 = 200 EUR * 1.16885 (EURUSD rate) = 233.77 USD

Metals

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size * Open Price = 1 * 100 * 1,265.00 = 126,500 USD

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 126,500 / 200 = 632.5 USD

Indices

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size * Open Price = 1 * 1 * 7,480.0 = 7,480 GBP

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 7,480 / 100 = 74.8 GBP * 1.32281 (GBPUSD rate) = 98.95 USD

Commodities

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size * Open Price = 1 * 1000 * 72.00 = 72,000 USD

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 72,000 / 33.3 = 2,162.17 USD

Shares

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size * Open Price = 1 * 1 * 185.00 = 185 USD

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 185 / 20 = 9.25 USD

Cryptocurrencies

Notional Value = Volume * Contract Size * Open Price = 1 * 1 * 36,500 = 36,500 USD

Required Margin = Notional Value / Leverage = 36,500 / 5 = 7,300 USD

Equity ( USD, EUR, GBP) Leverage
UP TO 3000 1000:1 OPTIONAL
3.001 UP TO 30.000 500:1
30.001 UP TO 50.000 400:1
50,001 UP TO 70.000 300:1
70,001 UP TO 90,000 200:1

Risk Warning: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Bearing this in mind, you should not invest more than you can afford to lose. Please read the full Risk Disclosure.
