Trading Conditions

Leverage is the multiplier of your equity.

Example: When using leverage of 1:30 to open a position of 1 Lot EUR/USD, as long as 1 Lot is equivalent to 100,000 base currency (100,000 EUR in our case), then you need a free margin of 100,000/30=3333.33 to able to open 1 Forex Lot.

Leverage magnifies both potential profits and loses, so use wisely.

Amount of Base Currency * Pips= Value in Quote Currency

Value of 1 pip in AUD/USD= 1 Lot (100 000)*0.0001= 10 USD

Value of 1 pip in GBP/CHF= 1 Lot (100 000)*0.0001=10 CHF

Value of 1 pip in AUD/JPY=1 Lot (100 000)*0.01= 1000 JPY
