To manage increased geopolitical risk, effective 27 April 2026, we will implement temporary adjustments to margin requirements for newly opened positions, along with adjustments to the minimum Stop Level (pending order distance). Details are as follows:
Minimum Stop Level (Pending Order Distance) Adjustment:
Applicable account types: All trading accounts
Adjustment details:
- All trading instruments: Adjusted to 50 points
- BTCUSD: Adjusted to 1500 points

Risk Reminder:
This adjustment to the minimum Stop Level and pending order distance may affect certain trading strategies. You are advised to review their your parameters before execution to ensure compliance with the latest requirements and avoid order placement or modification failures due to insufficient distance.
Note: The minimum pending order distance also applies to the setting of Stop Loss and Take Profit.

Minimum pending order distance: 50 points (0.50)
