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?)!
