What is leverage, and how does it work?
Leverage allows you to control larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. For example, with 1:100 leverage, you can control a $10,000 position with just $100. However, leverage increases both potential profits and potential losses.

Do you offer negative balance protection?
Yes, we offer negative balance protection, ensuring that your account balance does not go below zero. However, market conditions can lead to losses beyond your account balance under exceptional circumstances.
6. Fees and Spreads
What are spreads, and how are they applied?
The spread is the difference between the bid and ask price of a currency pair and represents the cost of trading. Spreads vary depending on the account type and market conditions. We offer competitive spreads and a transparent fee structure.
Do you charge commission on trades?
For most account types, we do not charge commission, and trading costs are built into the spread. Our Pro accounts, however, may involve a small commission in exchange for tighter spreads.
