Dear Client,
Starting from September 22, 2025, margin calculation will change for situations where you hold both Buy and Sell positions on the same instrument (a “hedge” or “lock”).
What is changing?
Before: Locked (hedged) volume required 0 margin.
From September 22, 2025: Locked volume will require margin, calculated the same way as for non-hedged positions.
Examples:
- Full Hedge (1 lot Buy + 1 lot Sell USDCAD, leverage 1:1000):
Before: Margin = 0 USD
From September 22, 2025: Margin = 100 USD (same as 1 lot USDCAD)
- Partial Hedge (2 lots Buy + 1 lot Sell USDCAD, leverage 1:1000):
Before:
Hedged 1 lot → Margin = 0 USD
Unhedged 1 lot → Margin = 100 USD
Total Margin = 100 USD
From September 22, 2025:
Hedged 1 lot → Margin = 100 USD
Unhedged 1 lot → Margin = 100 USD
Total Margin = 200 USD
Please check your balance and trading strategies before this change comes into effect.
