Margin in CFD trading refers to the amount of money required to open and maintain a leveraged position.

To calculate the FX margin requirement, you will require the following formula:

(Market quote * Volume) / Leverage = Margin Requirement

Example
The current EURUSD price is quoted as 1.13729, and we would like to trade one standard lot (100,000) using our account leverage of 1:30

The calculation would be (1.13729 * 100,000) / 30 = $3,790.96 USD

Note: If your trading account’s base currency is not in USD, the margin will be converted back into your base currency.

Since margin is essentially the collateral required in order to open a trade, if the market moves against a client’s position and your overall account equity is reduced, then you may not have sufficient funds available to maintain this position.

If your Equity (Balance - running Profit/Loss) falls below 50% of the margin required to maintain an open position, then the system will begin automatically closing the largest losing position in an attempt to increase your equity.

Our margin call and stop out levels are 80% and 50%, respectively.

Your account leverage is multiplier used to calculate the size of trades you can open on forex and XAUUSD symbols. The higher the leverage value the lower amount of margin required for your trades.

Example
If you have leverage of 30:1, you can control a large position of $300,000 on EURUSD with a margin of $10,000.

Please consider which leverage rate is appropriate for you. It is important to understand the concept of leverage and how it may impact your trading. Some less popular currencies can attract a higher margin rate irrespective of your account leverage.

To change to your leverage please login to our Client Portal and select Change of Leverage on the desired account.

The maximum leverage is 30:1

You can view the current swap rates directly on the platform under the product specifications.

If you hold a position overnight on a Wednesday, the swap is multiplied by three (3) times. This accounts for the settlement of your open position(s) for the proceeding weekend. This is because it takes two days for forex transactions to settle in the underlying market.

Take profit and stop losses are classed as pending orders. Unfortunately, it may not always be possible to fill these orders at the desired levels due to price volatility or unforeseen market events. Once triggered, pending orders then become market orders and are subjected to whatever market liquidity is available at that time.
