How can we help?

A CFD (Contract for Difference) is a derivative that mirrors the price of an underlying asset (forex, index, stock, commodity, crypto) without taking ownership. You buy or sell based on your view; your P&L is the difference between open and close prices multiplied by position size.

Depends on account type and asset. Cent and Standard offer up to 1:1000 on forex; Zero up to 1:500; ECN PRO up to 1:200. Indices, stocks and crypto carry lower leverage. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses — pair it with a risk-management plan.

Standard: 1.8 pips. Cent: 1.6 pips. Zero Spread and ECN PRO: from 0.0 pips with a per-lot commission. Spreads can widen during low-liquidity periods (Asia session open, macro releases).

On Cent, Standard and Standard PRO we charge no per-trade commission — costs are in the spread. On Zero Spread and ECN PRO we charge a per-lot commission (USD 3 per side on Zero, USD 3.5 on ECN) in exchange for spreads from 0.0 pips.

Yes, on every account type. MT5 supports MQL5 EAs, scalping, hedging and unrestricted algorithmic trading. The Zero Spread account is particularly popular with algo traders due to its low spread and institutional execution.

When your margin level falls to 100% you receive a margin call (alert). If it drops to 50%, automatic stop-out kicks in and the most-losing positions are closed until margin is restored. It is best to close manually before reaching that point.

Forex: 24/5 (closed weekends). Indices: depend on the listing exchange. Stocks: home exchange hours. Crypto: 24/7. Commodities: per contract. Exact hours are on each instrument card in MT5.

Opening an account is free. You just complete registration, verify your identity (KYC) and fund the minimum for the chosen account: USD 25 on Cent / Standard / Standard PRO, USD 250 on Zero, USD 5,000 on ECN PRO.

Up to 5 live accounts per client, in any combination of types. You can also create unlimited demo accounts to test strategies before going live.

You do not change the type of an existing account — you open a new one with the desired type and move your funds. You can do it any time from the client portal, with no paperwork.

For now the available base currency is USD. All deposits, withdrawals, profits and losses are calculated in US dollars.

If the account has no trades or transactions for 6 consecutive months, a monthly fee of USD 10 (or equivalent) applies until the balance is drained. We do not close the account — it reactivates when you trade again.

You request closure from the client portal. We return the balance to the original payment method (AML return-of-funds rule) and keep your KYC records for the minimum legal period. Closure completes in 5-10 business days.

Cryptocurrencies (USDT, USDC, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, BNB), debit or credit card (Visa and Mastercard), local payment methods available in selected countries and bank transfer available in selected countries. Each method may carry fees depending on the payment service provider (PSP). All methods are available for withdrawals following the return-of-funds-to-source rule.

Cards and e-wallets: instant to 30 minutes. Crypto: after 1-3 confirmations (10-30 min). SWIFT: 1-3 business days depending on the issuing bank.

USD 25 (or equivalent) for all methods. Withdrawals are processed back to the original deposit method up to the amount funded; any surplus is released to the method you choose.

Most common causes: international block, daily limit reached, wrong details, or a card not enabled for CFD trading (some banks restrict this category). Try another method or contact your bank.

As a regulated broker we must apply international AML/KYC standards. Without verification you cannot deposit, trade live or withdraw. Verification is mandatory, free, and a one-off — once per client.

Valid photo ID (passport, national ID or driving licence), recent proof of address (utility bill, bank statement, no older than 90 days) and, depending on your jurisdiction, a selfie or short liveness video.

Between 15 minutes and 24 business hours. Most verifications complete automatically in minutes. If manual review or extra documentation is needed, we notify you by email.

It can if the document is expired, photos are illegible, addresses do not match, or you reside in a restricted jurisdiction (USA, Canada, international sanctions). We tell you exactly what is missing and how to fix it.

For Politically Exposed Persons (PEP), clients from high-risk jurisdictions or accounts with elevated deposits, we apply enhanced due diligence: source-of-funds documentation, source-of-wealth screening and extra sanctions screening.

Your documents are stored encrypted in infrastructure controlled by the compliance team. Role-based access, continuous auditing and retention for the minimum legal post-closure period. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
