How much will I have to pay?
Your main payment for CFD trading is the spread (or commission in the case of share CFDs or Forex DMA) – the difference between the buy and the sell price. This is our charge for executing your trade.
| Market | Number of individual markets | Minimum spread | Margin rates from Retail clients | Leverage equivalent |
| Forex | 68 | 0.6 | 0.50% | 1:200 |
| Indices | 100+ | 0.1 | 0.50% | 1:200 |
| Share CFDs | 10,500+ | 0.1 | 10% | 1:10 |
| Commodities | 47 | 0.3 | 0.7% | 1:143 |
| Cryptocurrency CFDs | 6 | 1 | 10% | 1:10 |
CFDs are leveraged, meaning you can win, or lose, a significant amount more than you deposit initially. This initial deposit is called margin.
