EXNESS is lowering the margin requirements for ECN accounts

[Exness IB]

EXNESS is cutting the margin requirements for ECN accounts in half. This raises the number of trading strategies available to traders because of the increased free margin. With this in mind, EXNESS asks its clients to review the new leverage values given in the table below.

Funds, USD Maximum leverage
0 — 200 000 1:200
200,000 and above 1:100
Now for accounts with less than 200,000 USD, the maximum leverage allowed is 1:200. The maximum leverage size remains the same (1:100) for fund amounts more than 200,000 USD. Thus, the leverage offered by the company is one of the highest for ECN accounts among FOREX brokers in the same category.

The decision to lower margin requirements on ECN accounts is intended only to create pleasant working conditions for the company's clients.

You can change your leverage value in the Settings section of your Personal Area.
