We offer floating spreads only. This means our spreads vary depending on the market situation.
Here's why:
Our goal is to provide transparent prices and the tightest spreads we can without applying any additional commission. We simply pass on the best bid/ask price we get from our liquidity pool, and our spread accurately reflects what is available in the market. We choose floating spread over a fixed spread as it is often lower than average. However, you may expect it to widen at market open, during rollover at (server time), during major news releases, or during high volatility periods.

You can check minimum, average, and current spreads for all trading instruments on our Spreads and Conditions page.

Floating spread varies throughout the day depending on the trading session, liquidity, and volatility. It tends to be less tight at market opening on Monday, when high-impact news is released, and at other times of high volatility.

No, we do not. A requote occurs when the dealer on the other side of the trade sets an execution delay during which the price changes. As a non-dealing desk broker, Octa offsets all orders with the liquidity providers to be executed at their end.

Slippage is a slight execution price movement that may occur due to the lack of liquidity behind the requested price or when it's been taken by other traders' orders. It can also happen due to market gaps. Slippage should be factored in as one of the risks when trading with an ECN broker (financial intermediary that uses electronic communications networks or ECNs) since it cannot guarantee that your order will be executed at the requested price. However, our system is set up to fill orders at the next best available price whenever slippage occurs. Please be aware that slippage can be both positive and negative, and we cannot influence this factor.

Being an ECN broker, we cannot guarantee filling at the requested rate. After being triggered, a pending order turns into a market order and gets filled at the best available price, which primarily depends on the market conditions, available liquidity, trading pattern, and volume.

When your balance becomes negative, our negative balance protection automatically adjusts it to zero.

It depends on the currency pair, volume, and account leverage. You can use our Trading Calculator to figure out your required margin.
When you open a hedge (locked or opposite) position, no additional margin will be required. However, if your free margin is negative, you will not be able to open a hedge order.

With market execution, we cannot guarantee filling at the requested rate for all of your positions (please check About ECN trading for more details). However, in case you have any doubts, or if you would like an individual review of your orders, we suggest writing a detailed request and sending it to support@octafx.com. Our trade compliance department will investigate your case, provide you with a prompt response, and make corrections to the account if applicable.

We do not charge any commissions for trading. OctaTrader, MT4, and MT5 commissions are included in our spreads as markup.

Our clients are welcome to use any trading strategies except arbitrage, including but not limited to scalping, hedging, news trading, and martingale as well as any Expert Advisers.

We allow scalping, hedging, and other strategies if the orders are placed in accordance with our Customer Agreement. However, please note that arbitrage trading is not allowed.

Please feel free to use our Economic Calendar to be informed about upcoming releases and our Trading News page to learn more about recent market events. You can expect high market volatility when the event with top priority is about to take place.

A price gap means that either the current bid price is higher than the ask price of the previous quote, or the current ask price is lower than the bid of the previous quote.
It is important to understand that you may not be always able to see a price gap on the chart since it can be enclosed in a candle. As the definition implies, in some cases you would need to observe the ask price, while the chart shows only the bid price.
The following rules apply to pending orders executed during a price gap:

• if your Stop Loss is within the price gap, the order will be closed by the first price after the gap
• if the pending order price and Take Profit level are within the price gap, the order will be cancelled
• if the Take Profit order price is within the price gap, the order will be executed by its price
• Buy Stop and Sell Stop pending orders will be executed by the first price after the price gap
• Buy Limit and Sell Limit pending orders will be executed by the order’s price.

Let's imagine that a bid is listed as 1.09004 and ask is 1.0900. In the next tick, bid becomes 1.09012, and ask–1.0902. Then:

• if your Sell order has Stop Loss level at 1.09005, the order will be closed at 1.0902
• if your Take Profit level is 1.09005, the order will be closed at 1.0900
• if your Buy Stop order price is 1.09002 with Take Profit at 1.09022, the order will be cancelled
• if your Buy Stop price is 1.09005, the order will be opened at 1.0902
• if your Buy Limit price is 1.09005, the order will be opened at 1.0900.

We won't charge you any commission for holding an order overnight–all of our accounts are swap-free.

Gold and Platinum status users need to trade less lots to withdraw bonuses.

You might not have enough funds to support the bonus. Please make sure your free margin exceeds the bonus amount.

The total amount is shown as Bonus funds in OctaTrader and Credit in MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms until you meet the volume requirements.

The bonus can be cancelled if:

• your equity falls below the bonus amount

Examine the Master Trader’s stats first: risk score, gain, profit and loss, number of copiers, commission, order history, and other statistical data that can help you make an informed decision. Please top up your account to start copying.

When you subscribe to a Master Trader and press Set up copying, specify the copying proportion and decide whether to add support funds. When you press Start copying, the funds are credited from your Wallet, and the copying starts. You can subscribe to an unlimited number of Master Traders simultaneously.

The service fee is included in the spread as a markup of 0.2 pips. The Master Trader's commission is the amount you pay for the Master Trader's services—it is predetermined and specified individually. Each Master Trader's stats display the commission size.

You can unsubscribe from the Master Trader and stop copying the orders at any moment. When you unsubscribe, all funds invested with the Master Trader and your profit from copying are credited to your Wallet.

You can withdraw funds from your Wallet. To transfer your investments and profit there, end your subscription to the Master Trader. Please note that you won’t receive the full amount of your initial investment back if you complete your subscription to the Master Trader with a loss. The amount of loss will be subtracted from your initial investment.

You can unsubscribe from a Master Trader and stop copying their trades at any moment. When you unsubscribe, all funds invested with the Master Trader and your profit from copying will be returned to your Wallet. Before unsubscribing, please make sure all current trades are closed.

Any Octa client with an MT4 account can become a Master Trader. Just go to your Master Area and set up your Master Account.

If you have already created a Master Trader Account, you can visit the Master Area to edit your settings, adjust commission, or alter the description of your strategy. If you have not already created a Master Trader Account, you can input your settings as you create the account. The new commission will only be charged to Copiers who subscribe to you after the adjustment. The commission amount will remain unchanged for Copiers who currently subscribe to you.

The commission is paid out on Sundays at 6:00 p.m. (EET) every week.

The commission is charged the moment you open an order.

We transfer the commission to your Wallet. Afterwards, you can add the commission to your trading accounts or withdraw it from your Wallet.

We charge 12% of the commission you earn from all Copiers. For example, if you charge your Сopiers a 20% commission, and their profit this week is 200 USD, your net profit will be calculated as follows:

($200 × 20%) – 12% = $35.2

Unlike Forex instruments, shares are not suitable for leverage trading.
