Disclaimer
Our service includes products that are traded on margin and carry a risk of losses in excess of your deposited funds. The products may not be suitable for all investors. Please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.
You should not trade on margin unless you fully understand all the risks involved and that you have sufficient resources. There is, however, the possibility of an adverse movement in price that will result in you meeting the required financial obligations in relation to margin payments and losses.
Margin trading is leveraged trading that allows gearing which means that you can place a large trade by placing only a small amount of money as margin. If the price moves profitably it will quickly increase your profit. But even a small movement in price against your position can result in a sizeable loss and you may be required to deposit additional margin immediately to keep the trade open. You are responsible for this and for any losses that may occur if your position is closed. The potential loss, or gain, for a margin trading product can be limitless and this should always be taken into account by you when making trading decisions.
Not all transactions can be opened or closed 24 hours a day. Will depend on the open and close of the market. These can be found in Market Information Sheets (MIS) which are available online and we endeavor to keep them updated, without any obligation or responsibility for us to do so or for their accuracy. For example, national holidays and seasonal changes will affect the time you trade. Also the market can be suspended for various reasons and during this time you cannot make transactions.
You place the transaction at our prices and not on the exchange. Depending on the market, our prices will usually be based on exchange rates but may fluctuate considerably from the underlying price for a variety of reasons. All open positions can only be closed and settled with us.
If you have any doubts about any aspect of the risk involved in margin trading then we recommend that you seek independent professional advice or assistance before proceeding.
If you are considering to trade you should seek legal advice first to ensure that you are not violating any regulations.
Margin trading is not always designed to replace traditional or existing investment methods and is therefore not suitable for everyone.
