Cryptocurrency leverage: BTCUSD, ETHUSD and other crypto CFDs

Review the tiered BTCUSD leverage and margin calculations for MT4 accounts under the Vanuatu license, including the rates for positions above two lots.

Normal leverage limits

The normal maximum leverage for cryptocurrency CFDs under our Vanuatu trading terms is:

Instrument

Normal maximum leverage

BTCUSD and ETHUSD

100:1

Other cryptocurrency CFDs

20:1

This policy is the same on MT4, MT5, WebTrader and the FXTRADING.com App.

BTCUSD no longer uses the previous split between the first two lots and additional lots.

Conditions that may lower your leverage

Lower applicable regulatory, account, instrument or temporary limits still apply. Different regulatory entities and client classifications may have lower limits. The figures above are product ceilings, not confirmation of the leverage currently available on your account.

Margin and position monitoring

Lower leverage increases the margin required for the same position. Check the applicable instrument and account conditions and continue to monitor your positions and margin.

For account-specific help, sign in to the Client Portal, open Service Hub from the left navigation menu, select Create Ticket, and choose the category and issue that best match your request.
