    • A CFD (Contract for Difference) is a derivative that lets you speculate on price changes of underlying assets without owning them.

      You can:

      • Buy (go long) if you expect the price to rise
      • Sell (go short) if you expect the price to fall

      What is a CFD?

    • In Forex or CFD trading, the spread is the difference between the ask (buy) and bid (sell) price. It is one of the trading costs.

      Traders Trust provides competitive floating spreads:

      • Classic account: all-inclusive spreads (no extra commission)
      • Pro and VIP accounts: raw spreads plus commission per lot

      What is Spread?

    • Yes. There are no restrictions for hedging.

      Margin on hedged positions:

      • Only the margin of the larger leg is required
      • Completely hedged does not mean 0% margin

      Example:

      • 2 lots BUY + 2 lots SELL → margin for 2 lots
      • 2 lots BUY + 5 lots SELL → margin for 5 lots

      Do you allow hedging?

    • Margin Call at Margin Level 50% (Equity / Margin × 100)

      Stop Out at Margin Level 20% – system begins closing trades (starting from least profitable) to prevent negative balance

    • Leverage lets you control larger positions with less capital.

      • 1:500 → $1 in account = $500 market exposure
      • 1:30 → $1 in account = $30 market exposure

      Higher leverage = lower required margin but higher potential profit and higher potential loss.

      What is leverage?

    • Swap is the interest (rollover) earned or paid for holding a position overnight. It reflects interest-rate differences or financing costs.

      FX Swap Formula:
      Swap = (Pip value for 1 lot) × (Number of lots) × (Number of nights) × (Swap rate in points) / 10

      What is Swap and how is it calculated?

    • Formula:
      Margin = Trade Size (units) / Leverage × Market Price

      Example: 1 lot EUR/USD at 1:100 leverage and price 1.11825:
      Required Margin = 100,000 / 100 × 1.11825 = 1,118.25 USD

      How is Margin calculated?

    • You can trade:

      • Forex (170+ currency pairs)
      • Metals (Gold, Silver)
