Dear Valued Client,
To further optimize the trading environment and enhance your trading experience, we would like to inform you of the following updates regarding leverage adjustments for share CFD products during the earnings season.
1. General Leverage Adjustment (Previously Announced)
Effective 13 April 2026, the leverage for all US Share CFDs will be adjusted as follows:
| Symbol | Current Leverage | New Leverage |
|---|---|---|
| All US Shares | 1:33 | 1:20 |
This adjustment will remain in place throughout the earnings season and will revert to 1:33 once the period concludes.
2. Additional Dynamic Leverage Measures (New Update)
As part of enhanced risk management during periods of heightened market volatility, temporary dynamic leverage adjustments will also apply to share CFD products during specific market timings.
- Applicable Instruments: All Share CFDs
- Applicable Scenario: New positions opened during designated time windows
- Temporary Leverage: 1:5
Affected Time Windows (GMT+3):
| Symbol | Applied Trading Time | Leverage Adjustment |
|---|---|---|
| Shares | Market Opening/Closing Time (GMT+3) | Applied Leverage |
| EU CFD Shares |
Mon.-Fri. 10:05-10:35; 18:00-18:30 | 5:1 |
| UK CFD Shares |
Mon.-Fri. 10:05-10:35; 18:00-18:30 | 5:1 |
| US CFD Shares |
Mon.-Fri. 16:30-17:00; 22:30-23:00 | 5:1 |
These adjustments apply only to newly opened positions during the specified periods.
Important Notes
- The dynamic leverage is applied temporarily during high-risk periods around market open and close.
- Existing positions will not be affected by this rule.
- All leverage settings will revert to normal once the earnings season ends.
If you have open positions or plan to trade during these periods, we strongly recommend reviewing your positions and ensuring sufficient margin to manage potential risks.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us via Live Chat or email.
Thank you for your continued support.
