The maximum size a single trade may have differs per product.
For example, in the case of 'Stocks' the maximum is usually 10,000 GBP (or €). This means: If you open a position for 2,000 GBP with a Multiplier of x5, this equals this maximum of 10,000 GBP (5 x 2.000 = 10.000).
However, other products can have different limits.
See below for an overview of the maximum trade size per product:
Product | Maximum trade size (notional value) |
Indices (EU/US) | 200.000 GBP |
Indices (Asian) | 75.000 GBP |
Currencies | 200.000 GBP |
Gold | 200.000 GBP |
Silver/Platinum | 50.000 GBP |
US Oil | 50.000 GBP |
Stocks | 10.000 GBP* |
Crypto | 5.000 GBP |
*There may be some exceptions due to the low liquidity of certain Stocks
Please keep in mind:
- The absolute amount you can invest is dependent on the amount of money that is in your Account.
- You also cannot put your whole account into one trade only (this rule applies to account values exceeding 500 GBP).
- A part of your total account value is reserved (called ring fenced). This amount is not available for trading as it functions as a backup for possible fees.
Tip: If you want to invest more money in a certain stock or product, you can always open more than one position. You could for example open 2 positions of 10,000 GBP in the same Stock.
Reminder: You can never lose more on a trade than your invested amount (see: Why can't I lose more money than I invest?)!
