The spread is the difference between the buy and sell price and is usually the transaction cost when placing a trade. When a trader buys at the market price, they are buying on the ‘ask’ price which is higher than the ‘bid’ price. Alternatively, when a trader sells at the market price, they are selling on the ‘bid’ price which is lower than the ‘ask’ price. The difference between the two prices is the ‘spread’.

Leverage on your account will be set to 30:1. This is the maximum leverage that we are able to offer to retail traders due to FCA and ESMA imposed regulations. Professional traders can have their leverage increased to 100:1.

If you have an special request to change the leverage on your account you can contact us directly.

It is about 3.33% of the notional position size. For example if you place on MT5 a 0.10 EUR/USD position size and the pair is trading at 1.2000. The notional volume of this position is calculated as follows: 10,000 X 1,2000 = $12,000USD. Then $12,000 X 3.33% = $265 USD is the margin required for this position. It varies depending on each currency pairs, MT5 does the calculation for you, you can check how much margin is required on the margin field on your open positions within the terminal window on MT5.
