Margin FX Trading
Would you like to trade in the world’s most liquid market? The Forex market offers more liquidity than any other global financial market. It operates twenty four hours a day five days per week, with a turnover of up to US$ 5 trillion daily. Foreign exchange is often referred to as the Forex or FX market and is the marketplace in which the exchange of currencies, between two counter-parties takes place, at a mutually agreed rate or price. There is no central marketplace or exchange floor, rather Forex is an Over-the-Counter or OTC market.
Forex is an Over-the-Counter Market (OTC)
The majority of Forex trades are settled as spot trades, as opposed to settlement at a set date in the future as with many exchange traded products. Forex provides traders with the ability to execute buy or sell trades around the clock, with few restrictions. Creating opportunities for them to profit from variations in the value of one currency pair against another.
Trade with Leverage
Leverage or gearing effectively multiplies a client’s deposit or account value. This provides a client with the ability to hold larger positions than their initial deposit would cover. In other words traders can hold open positions, with only a fraction of the positions underlying value required as a deposit or margin. Leveraging your funds means you can make larger trades or a higher number of trades than your initial deposit on its own would allow*.
*The use of leverage can magnify profits but it can do the same for losses. Forex and CFDs are leveraged products, involve a high level of risk and can result in the loss of more than your invested capital. Please consult our full risk warning notice.
