Professional Account Requirements

You can become a professional trader by submitting an application and meeting at least two of the following criteria³:

  • Having opened at least 10 trades per quarter for the past year, and each trade size (volume) was at least $4,000 in Stocks/Cryptos and/or $18,500 in Forex/Commodities with eXcentral or any other broker
  • Having at least one year experience working in a professional position in the financial field, which requires knowledge of the CFDs market.
  • A portfolio size⁴ of 500,000 EUR or more; cash deposits and financial instruments inclusive.

 

¹ A standardised margin closeout rule at the percentage of the minimum initial required margin prescribed above on a per account basis. For professional clients’ trading accounts the percentage is subject to changes.

² The objective of the Investor Compensation Fund (ICF) is to secure claims of Retail Clients through the payment of compensation (up to €20,000) in cases where we default on our obligations to you, if certain conditions are met. Read more here.

³ You can decide whether you wish to submit an application now or at a later stage or even remain to be treated as retail client. Please note that you have the option to revert your status back to retail once you become professional at any time if you wish so.

⁴ Financial instruments include shares, cash deposits made to fund or profits accrued from investing in derivatives, debt instruments and cash deposits. They do not include property, traditional commodity ownership or the notional value of derivative instruments.
