Notes
- 1. Terms for CFDs on currency pairs, commodities, indices, shares, ETFs and bonds (including Minimum and Maximum Contract Sizes) are provided in the Contract Specifications.
- 2. Leverage rate for currency pairs and certain types of CFDs depends on notional position value and is provided according to Margin Requirements.
- 3. Commissions charged for CFDs on currency pairs and metals on the Zero.MT4 and Zero.MT5 accounts depend on monthly volume, which means active traders pay less. The commission value indicated is for a single-sided trade and charged in the full amount (i.e. doubled) when a position is opened on a Zero.MT4 account, and immediately charged in the full amount when a position is opened or closed on a Zero.MT5 account. Commission structure, calculation examples and rates for different deposit currencies are provided in Commissions. Commissions charged for CFDs on energies and cash indices on the Zero.MT4 and Zero.MT5 accounts do not depend on monthly volume and are charged at flat rates, which can be found in our Contract Specifications. Commission values in USD are generalised and indicative, please check the precise information for each instrument in our Contract Specifications.
- 4. The commission is indicated for a single-sided trade and is charged on a "per transaction" basis (i.e. each time when an asset is bought or sold). Please find full information about the commission rates and minimum commission values in Contract Specifications. Calculation examples are provided in Commissions.
