Deposit and withdrawals questions

How do I deposit funds to my account?

You can make a deposit inside your Client Area using any funding option that suits you best.

What is the minimum deposit?

There are no minimums.

How do I withdraw funds from my account?

Log in to your Client Area and fill in the respective withdrawal form.

Do you have any charges on deposits and withdrawals?

No. TradeXN doesn’t charge any deposit or withdrawal fees. Your payment provider or the blockchain network may charge its own fee, which is outside our control. You can see all our fees here.

How fast do you process my withdrawals?

We process all withdrawal requests within one working day.

How long does it take for funds to reach my account?

We process all withdrawal requests within 24 hours on business days. The time necessary for the funds to reach your account depends on your accounts policy.

Can I withdraw via a different payment method from the one I used for depositing?

TradeXN policy is to process withdrawals via the same method that you used to deposit.

Can I withdraw my money if I have open position(s)?

Yes, you can. However, at the moment of payment, your free margin must exceed the amount specified in the withdrawal instruction including all payment charges. Free margin is calculated as equity minus the necessary margin (which is required to maintain an open position).

If you do not have sufficient free margin on your trading account, we will not carry out the withdrawal request until you submit a corrected withdrawal form and/or close the open positions on your account.

Trading Conditions

What are the minimum and maximum position sizes?

The minimum trade quantity is 0.01. There is no maximum.

What is your order execution speed?

Our average execution speed is around 8 milliseconds.

What are your margin call/stop out levels?

Our margin call / stop out levels are – 100/1%. Your account may be subject to a margin call if your account equity falls to a level that is equal to the margin of your existing positions. For example, you have an open position of 1 lot on EURUSD. The margin to hold that position is 200 USD.

When you opened the account, you had a 400 USD equity on your account. When the position starts to move against you and your account equity falls to 200 USD, you will have a margin call. But your position will not be closed yet. When your account equity falls to 1% of the required margin, then the system starts to close your positions immediately.

Taking the above example, if you open a position with 200 USD of margin and your account equity falls to 24 USD, then the system starts to close your position. If you have several positions opened, then the system closes them starting from the one with the biggest loss.

If, while closing the positions, your account equity reaches a level of more than 1% of the required margin, all other positions will remain open.

Hedging, or arbitrage trading, is allowed?

Hedging is allowed (arbitrage trading). Scalping is also allowed. There are no time limitations for keeping the positions open.

What is a slippage?

Orders in the real market are always executed at current market prices, which is why a slippage may occur in the case of a sharp movement. Please note, that during market-moving news or high volatility, the risk of slippage is higher than during normal conditions. You will get both positive and negative slippages.

What is TradeXN trade execution model?

Order Execution model: DMA (direct market access), NDD (no dealing desk). ECN stands for Electronic Communication Network. NDD stands for No Dealing Desk. DMA stands for Direct Market Access.

Do you offer negative balance protection/cover negative balance?

Traders who use the maximum leverage available face the risk of a negative balance.
For example: Let’s assume that you have 200 USD on your account and you open 1 lot on USDJPY on Friday evening, with 1:500 leverage and 200 USD margin.

On Sunday night, the market opens 30 pips away from Friday’s closing price in a direction against you, so your position will immediately have a loss of 30 pips x 10 USD = 300 USD loss, while you have only 200 USD on your account.

The position will be automatically closed and your account would have a negative balance of -100 USD. This situation is 100% impossible when a trader uses 1:1 leverage. The higher leverage a trader uses, the more risks they take. Please also note that a negative balance may occur due to a slippage during high volatility.

Our Risk department is constantly monitoring our clients’ risk-taking and if we see that a client trades irresponsibly, then we will notify the client via e-mail and ask them to reduce risk exposure.

Regardless, all clients have negative balance protection on their account.

What are the limits of setting SL, TP, and TS?

You can set Stop Loss and Take Profit orders with no limits on all account types. SL and TP orders will still be active, even if your computer is switched off. The minimum Trailing Stop level is 1.5 pips or 15 points. It is possible to set only 1 trailing stop per order. You need to have the platform open to keep the trailing stop active.

TradeXN is one of the few platforms that doesn’t have any requotes.

How many platforms are available for trading?

We offer one of the most popular and easy-to-use platforms, which are available for Windows, OS X, iOS and Android.

What is the margin call procedure for TradeXN?

Negative price movement can potentially lead to a margin call and the subsequent triggering of an automated margin close-out of positions. In the event that market conditions are unfavourable to you, we will set a stop-out level to reduce your maximum loss. This means that we will set a threshold of margin value, below which positions are automatically closed.

In a nutshell, once your account net equity drops below 100% of the initial margin required to establish the open position(s), TradeXN changes colour to red to indicate that you are close to or on margin call, and once your account net equity drops below requirements, your open positions will get closed automatically.

(**Net equity: Defined as the sum of the client’s net profit and loss on an open position(s) and client’s deposited funds.)

Do you offer Swap-Free accounts?

Yes, on request. Positions held open past the daily rollover on our standard accounts are charged or credited an overnight swap. You can see the rate for every instrument on our Fees page.

If your faith doesn't allow you to pay or receive interest, we're happy to help. Just email support@tradexn.com from your registered email address to request an Islamic swap-free account. Instead of swap, a daily fee applies to positions held overnight, and it's listed next to each instrument on our Fees page.
