Execution disclaimer
Orders are executed at the best price available from our aggregated liquidity at the moment of receipt. In fast markets the executable price may differ from the price displayed when the order was submitted — positive and negative slippage both occur and are applied symmetrically. Stop-loss orders are not guaranteed unless purchased as a guaranteed stop, and may be filled at the next available price after a gap.
Margin requirements
Margin is calculated in real time. If equity falls below 100% of margin requirement the terminal issues a margin call; at 50% positions are closed automatically, largest loss first, until the level is restored.
Order types accepted
Market, limit, stop, stop-limit and trailing-stop orders are supported on all instruments. Pending orders remain valid until cancelled unless an expiry is specified.
