As a Cypriot Investment Firm, we are a member of the Investment Compensation Fund (ICF). This Fund has been put in place in order to secure the claims of Covered Clients against Cyprus Investment Firms. Client’s claims for compensation may be exercised through the Fund, following the failure of a member firm to do so. It means, that thanks to our ICF membership, you are protected in the very unlikely event of the company’s insolvency.
To find out more, please refer to our Investor Compensation Fund policy.
No. We ensure that the maximum loss that you can encounter, at any point in time, cannot exceed your available balance. This mean that you are not liable in any way for a negative account balance, which may be caused by a rapid and violent market movement. Because the maximum risk associated with trading is limited to the equity gathered on your account, you cannot lose more money than you have invested and therefore you cannot get into a situation where you would owe any money to FxNet.
You can find more information regarding the Negative Balance Protection in our Terms and Conditions of Use.
There are no fees for registering and opening an account with us. We will not charge you a monthly fee for owning an account either, however, you should keep in mind that there are some charges related with trading, transferring money and inactivity.
Costs related with trading:
Spread – When you open a transaction, spread is automatically charged, which is why your transactiton opens with ‘a minus’. Spread which includes mark-up (if applicable), is the difference between the BUY and the SELL price and it can vary between different financial instruments; its size depends on the type of the Account Type held by you and the market conditions. Keep in mind that, since we offer floating spread, it can widen or contract at any time, without a warning.
To find out spread sizes available for different account types and products, check out our website.
Commissions – Commission is only charged on the Platinum account, and it equals 1.2 pips per each closed lot.
Overnight Financing / Swaps - The swap is the interest added or deducted for holding an open position overnight. Swaps are charged in the form of points (pips) or monetary terms depending on the financial instrument, which are based on market interest rates, which may vary from time to time. Depending on the position held and the interest rate of the currency involved in the Transaction, you may either be credited or debited with financing. On Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, swaps are charged once every working day. On Wednesdays swap is charged in triple size. You can view all swaps on your MT4 Terminal.
Costs related with money transfers:
