Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I withdraw funds or make an internal transfer from my balance?
   

Yes, you can withdraw funds or make internal transfers at any time. However, this may affect your Deposit Boost bonus. If, after a withdrawal or transfer, your remaining balance is equal to or greater than the bonus amount, your participation continues as usual. If your remaining balance falls below the bonus amount, the bonus will be removed from the respective account. See the examples below. 

Case 1: Maximum bonus received ($5,000)

• Full withdrawal from the only account with a bonus → participation ends.  

• Withdrawal from one of several accounts with a bonus → the bonus is removed from that account only, and participation continues on the remaining accounts.  

• Withdrawal from the only account holding a bonus, while other accounts have no bonus → participation ends. 

Case 2: Partial bonus received  

• Withdrawal from any account → the bonus is removed from that account, and participation continues.

• Can I withdraw the bonus (“Credit” in MetaTrader 5)?

Yes, the bonus may be withdrawn. 

The amount of bonus available for withdrawal is calculated based on your trading activity. You receive $25 for every $1,000,000 of Notional Trading Volume (NTV) within a trading session. A trading session runs from Saturday 00:00 to Friday 23:59 (UTC). 

Notional Trading Volume (NTV):

• Is calculated from the moment the bonus is granted;  

• Applies only to instruments participating in the Deposit Boost program;  

• Includes only positions held for at least 180 seconds;  

• Excludes hedged positions;  

• Stops accumulating once the bonus balance reaches zero (for example, when the entire bonus has been converted into balance and trading continues without a new deposit). 
• At the end of each trading session, the eligible amount of bonus is calculated and credited to the account balance, where it becomes available for withdrawal.

• Does the bonus cover losses?

No, the bonus does not cover losses. 

The bonus may be used as an additional margin for opening and maintaining positions. However, any losses incurred are deducted from the client’s own equity.

• Will positions opened before I activate Deposit Boost be taken into consideration for bonus calculations?

No, only positions opened after the activation of Deposit Boost are taken into account for bonus calculations. 

Positions opened prior to activation are not eligible and do not contribute to the Notional Trading Volume (NTV). 

• Which trading account types can participate in the Deposit Boost promotion? Do I get a 100% bonus on each of my deposits?

You may receive a bonus on the following trading account types: 

• Trade.MT5  

• Zero.MT5  

You can receive Deposit Boost on multiple eligible deposits. However, the maximum total bonus that can be provided across all trading accounts in the Dashboard is $5,000, or the equivalent in the account currency, calculated based on the exchange rates available in the trading platform.

• Which instruments are taken into consideration in the bonus calculation?

The following groups of instruments, according to the Contract Specifications, are taken into account for the bonus calculation: 

• Currencies  

• Commodities  

• Indices  

• ETFs  

Trades executed on non-eligible instruments do not contribute to the Notional Trading Volume (NTV).

• How is stop-out calculated when using the bonus?

When a Bonus is added to your trading account, the stop-out is calculated differently from the standard rule. 

• Standard account (without Deposit Boost): 

• Stop Out is triggered when your equity falls to 30% of the used margin. 

• Account with Deposit Boost:

Stop Out is triggered when your total account equity falls below the bonus amount received.

Total account equity = own balance + floating profit/loss + swaps + bonus − commissions 

In simple terms, the bonus amount acts as the minimum equity threshold. 

If your equity drops below it, Stop Out is triggered. 

Example without Deposit Boost: 

Own funds: USD 1,000 

Used margin: USD 800 

Stop Out level: 30% 

Calculation: 

USD 800 × 30% = USD 240 

Stop Out is triggered when equity falls to USD 240 or below

Example with Deposit Boost: 

Own funds: USD 500 

Bonus: USD 500 

Total equity: USD 1,000 

Used margin: USD 800 

Stop Out is triggered when equity falls below USD 500 

(i.e. the amount of the received bonus) 

Important 

With a Bonus, Stop Out does not depend on the 30% margin level rule 

Stop Out may be triggered even if the margin level is above 30% 

The bonus amount defines the Stop Out threshold

• How can I switch my trading account from “Read Only” status?

A trading account may be placed in “Read Only” status when, following trading activity, the account balance reaches $0 or falls below $0 (MT side).

To remove the “Read Only” status, the account simply needs to be funded through either a deposit or an internal transfer. Once the funds are credited, the account will be automatically reactivated.

• Can I participate in the Deposit Boost again after using it?

Yes, by clicking the “Activate” button in the Deposit Boost section. However, certain conditions apply. 

If you make a withdrawal or transfer that reduces your balance below the bonus amount, the bonus will be removed. Your participation in the program will also end if the maximum bonus amount has been reached.

• Where can I find the full Terms and Conditions of the Deposit Boost promotion?
