Dear traders,
We are pleased to
announce the increase of total exposure limits applicable to our CFDs
that reference cryptocurrencies and an increase of maximum leverage for
positions in Bitcoin vs US Dollar CFDs.
Here is what will change from 21 February 2022:
- New exposure limits will start to apply to accounts of all Retail and Professional/Wholesale clients as follows:
- 500,000 EUR total limit in respect to positions in:
- Bitcoin vs US Dollar CFD (platform symbol BTCUSD)
- Ether vs US Dollar CFD (ETHUSD)
- Litecoin vs US Dollar CFD (LTCUSD)
- Bitcoin Cash vs US Dollar CFD (BCHUSD)
- 50,000 EUR in total in respect to positions in
any other Cryptocurrency CFDs not mentioned above. Limits apply
separately per each trading account and to the entire group of
instruments. If the value of open positions in crypto CFDs exceeded the
limit, the account would not be allowed to add even more new crypto CFD
positions in the same direction. In such situations, previously
established Crypto CFD positions could still remain open even though
their calculated value could have appreciated beyond set limits.
- The maximum leverage for Professional/Wholesale clients on Bitcoin vs US Dollar CFDs (BTCUSD) will change to 1:20. The maximum leverage for retail clients remains without changes at 1:2.
Kind regards,
Admirals
