Demo account
Opens with virtual funds and behaves exactly like a live one: same instruments, same spreads, same margin maths. Use it to learn the ticket before any money moves.
Trading
Trading conditions, in plain terms.
How an order is filled, what it costs, how much margin it holds and when each market is open. No small print — the same numbers the platform actually uses.
Accounts
Two modes, one platform.
Demo and live accounts run on the same prices, the same order ticket and the same margin rules. The only difference is whose money is at risk.
Live account
Funded by a deposit and settled in your account currency. Every closed position posts its result — profit or loss, less commission and swap — straight to the balance.
Accounts per client: up to 5

Execution
One click, one price.
The platform fills client orders at market. What you see on the ticket is what you deal at.
You deal at the quote on screen
Buy fills at the ask, sell fills at the bid. Confirm the ticket and the position is open — there is no waiting queue and no partial fill.
The same quote for everyone
Bid and ask come from the platform's price feed for that instrument. Two clients pressing Buy at the same moment get the same price.
A closed instrument is rejected, not guessed
If an instrument has no live price, the order is refused rather than filled at a stale quote. You will see a short message on the ticket instead of an open position.
Closing is just as direct
Close at market whenever you like. The net result is posted to your balance immediately and the position moves to your trade history with its ticket number.
Costs
What a position actually costs.
Three things can be charged on a trade, and one on moving money. Each instrument shows its own figures in the terminal.
Spread
The distance between bid and ask. It is part of the price rather than a separate line, which is why a position starts slightly negative and needs the market to move before it turns.
Commission
Instruments that carry a commission charge it when the position opens, as the instrument's rate multiplied by your volume. Instruments with a zero rate cost you the spread only.
Swap
A position carried past the daily rollover can be charged or credited a swap, depending on the instrument and on whether you are long or short. It shows on the position and in the trade history.
Deposits and withdrawals
Deposits are not charged by the platform. Withdrawals carry a percentage fee that falls as you move up the verification tiers, and the fee is always capped.
Spread, commission and volume limits differ per instrument. The exact figures for the instrument you are about to trade are shown on its order ticket.
Leverage and margin
Leverage decides how much of your money a position ties up.
Leverage does not change your profit or loss per point — it changes how much margin a position holds while it is open, and therefore how many positions you can carry.
Required margin
Volume × Contract size × Price ÷ Leverage
Worked example
One lot of a currency pair — contract size 100,000 — bought at 1.0850 on 1:100 leverage holds 1,085 of your account currency as margin. The same lot on 1:500 holds 217. The position is identical; only the margin changes.
Leverage available on the platform
1:11:101:201:501:1001:2001:500
Higher leverage frees up margin; it does not make a losing position smaller. The account's leverage is set when the account is opened and can be changed by the desk on request.
- Equity
- Your balance plus the floating profit or loss of everything currently open.
- Used margin
- The sum of the margin held by your open positions.
- Free margin
- Equity minus used margin. A new position is refused when it needs more than this.
- Margin level
- Equity divided by used margin, as a percentage. It falls as losses grow, and it is the number to watch.
Instruments
What you can trade.
Every market on the platform, with the trading limits that apply to it. Live prices and 24-hour changes are on the Markets page.
| Market | Instruments | Tightest spread, points | Minimum volume | Volume step |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forex | 5 | 1.2 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
| Stocks | 3 | 3.5 | 1 | 1 |
| Crypto | 2 | 3.5 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
| Indices | 2 | 3.5 | 0.1 | 0.1 |
| Commodities | 2 | 3.5 | 0.01 | 0.01 |
Volume is measured in lots. The contract size behind one lot depends on the instrument and is shown on its ticket.
Market hours
When each market is awake.
Sessions are given in UTC. An instrument only quotes while its market is open, and an order sent outside those hours is rejected.
| Market | Session | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | Mon 22:00 – Fri 22:00 | Liquidity peaks while London and New York overlap, roughly 12:00–16:00 UTC. |
| Crypto | 24 / 7 | Digital assets never close, weekends included — so a position left open is never off the market. |
| Stocks | Exchange hours | A share follows the session of the venue it is listed on; US listings trade 13:30–20:00 UTC. |
| Indices | Exchange hours | Index prices follow the cash session of the market behind them. |
| Commodities | Exchange hours | Metals and energy follow their futures venue, which pauses briefly once a day. |
Public holidays shorten or cancel a session. Positions stay open across the break; only new orders are refused.
Risk management
Risk is a setting, not an accident.
Decide what a trade may cost you before you open it. The platform gives you the levels to enforce that decision.
- 01
Size the position first
Choose the volume from what you are willing to lose, not from the margin you happen to have free. The calculator on the Tools page turns a volume into margin and contract value before you commit.
- 02
Attach a stop loss
A stop loss is the price at which the position closes against you. Set it on the ticket when you open, or add it to an open position — either way the decision is made while you are calm.
- 03
Give the trade a target
A take profit closes the position in your favour without you watching the screen. Knowing the target and the stop before entry is what makes a trade measurable.
- 04
Keep an eye on margin level
A falling margin level means open losses are eating your equity. Reduce volume or close something before free margin runs out.
- 05
Rehearse on demo
Every mistake worth making — wrong volume, missing stop, trading a market you do not follow — is cheaper on a demo account.
- 06
Trade one idea at a time
Several positions on correlated instruments are one large position wearing a disguise. Count exposure, not tickets.
Risk warning
Leveraged trading carries a high level of risk and can cost you your whole deposit. Prices move against you as easily as with you, and past movement says nothing about the next one. Trade only with money you can afford to lose, and be sure you understand margin before you open a position.
Not ready for that? A demo account uses virtual funds, so nothing is at stake while you learn.
Open an account and read the conditions from the inside.
A demo account takes a minute and shows you the real ticket, the real spreads and the real margin numbers.
