We are happy to announce an improvement in margin requirements. The max leverage has been increased for BTC and ETH-based instruments: from 1:100 to 1:200 on Margin trading accounts, and from 1:50 to 1:100 on copy-trading Strategy accounts.
Furthermore, the leverage provided for these instruments will not be less than 1:20 and 1:5 for margin and copy-trading accounts respectively, even for the largest available order sizes.
The reduced margin requirements will free up extra capital and allow for more earning opportunities. This will bring traders and strategy managers additional flexibility in implementing their trading ideas.
