Risk warning: Please note that trading in derivative financial contracts (including FX or forex and contracts for differences or CFDs) on a margin or leverage basis involves a high degree of risk to your capital and may not be appropriate for all investors. The price of the contract you make with us may change quickly due to market fluctuations that are outside our control, and your profits and losses may be more than the amount of your investment or funds. If the market moves against your position(s) or your margin levels are increased, you may be required to pay substantial additional funds on short notice to maintain your position. If you do not hold sufficient funds to meet your margin requirements, then we may close your open positions immediately and without notice, regardless of whether this would be at a loss. Please read this Agreement and our Risk Policy carefully and discuss with us anything that you do not understand.

1. OPENING ACCOUNT

1.1 You must complete an Application Form in order to apply for an Account. We will decide whether to accept your Account Application in our sole discretion.

1.2 Unless we agree otherwise, you agree to pay us a minimum initial amount of € 250 in cleared funds and maintain those funds with us at all times. We will hold funds in accordance with clause 3.6.

1.3 If we accept your Application, we will: (a) establish your Account; and (b) if you are required to pay an initial amount under clause 1.2; (i) require you to electronically transfer the amount to our segregated client funds account; and (ii) once the funds have been cleared, credit your Account with the initial amount. 

1.4 Your Account will be active once the steps in clause 1.3 have been completed. 

1.5 You may apply for more than one Account. 

1.6 These Terms commence once the steps in clause 1.3 have been completed and will remain in force unless terminated in accordance with these Terms.

2. OUR SERVICE ENTRY INTO CONTRACTS

2.1 If we accept an Order, we will enter into a Contract with you, provided that you comply with your obligations under these Terms.

2.2 A notice given by us stating any amount or rate for the purpose of these Terms and any Contract or Order is sufficient evidence of the amount or rate, unless it is proved to be incorrect.

2.3 You enter into each Contract as principal (unless we otherwise agree in writing). If you act as an agent on behalf of a principal, we will not accept that principal as a client unless otherwise agreed in writing (whether or not you identify that principal to us). 

2.4 Any information or general advice that we give you about financial products is generic in nature and does not take into account your financial situation, needs or personal objectives. In particular, we do not give you advice about whether you should open, hold or Close-Out a Contract nor on the merits of any trade. You must consider the appropriateness of entering into a Contract having regard to your own financial situation, needs or personal objectives and obtain your own independent financial advice if necessary. You 

should not regard any of our materials or any communication (in any form) as investment advice or a recommendation.

2.5 We quote Underlying Instrument Prices which provide an indication of the prices at which we are prepared to deal with you. 

2.6 The Trader-coins Platform opens on Monday at 8.00 am GMT time and close at 5:00 pm GMT time Friday. You may view live prices and place live Orders during these hours except time, when trading is disabled. You may still access the Trader-coins Platform and view your Account, market information, research and our other services outside of these hours, but you acknowledge that you will not be able to trade or access any live prices.

2.7 We are under no obligation to quote Underlying Instrument Prices or accept Orders on a public holiday in any jurisdiction which, in our reasonable opinion, affects the relevant Underlying Instrument. We give notice of such public holidays and the Underlying Instruments affected on our platform.

3. THE ACCOUNT NATURE

3.1 Your Account is a record, or a series of records, maintained by us (or on our behalf) that shows, at any point in time, the net position of the payments you have made or are required to make to us and the payments we have made or are required to make to you. Your Account is not a deposit account with us and no money is held in the Account. 

3.2 You authorize and direct us to: (a) debit from your Account any Free Balance you withdraw and any amounts payable by you under these Terms; (b) credit to your Account any amounts deposited by you and any amounts payable by us under these Terms; and (c) designate the amounts in your Account as either Free Balance or Actual Margin depending on the amounts you deposit with us, your Orders, Contract positions and market movements in accordance with these Terms.

3.3 We are not required to notify you before debiting, crediting or designating amounts on your Account.

3.4 You agree to maintain sufficient funds in your Account to satisfy all amounts payable by you under these Terms. It is your responsibility to ensure that any funds you transfer are cleared in sufficient time to meet all of your payment obligations under these Terms. 

3.5 If you find a negative equity balance on your Account that has not been corrected, please contact us at support@trader-coins.com 

3.6 We deposit any funds paid by you into our segregated client funds account.

3.7 You agree and acknowledge that: (a) any funds held in our segregated client funds account will be pooled with, and not kept separate from, funds belonging to other clients. We will exercise all due skill, care and diligence in the selection, appointment and periodic review of the institution where our client funds are deposited; (b) we will only withdraw your money from our segregated client funds account to: (i) make a payment in accordance with your written directions; (ii) transfer Margin; (iii) withdraw fees charged as part of a deposit or withdrawal transaction; (iv) pay money to us that we are entitled to as a result of you trading with us; (v) make a payment that is otherwise authorized by law or in compliance with the operating rules of a licensed market; and (vi) if you have an Open Position, we reserve the right, at any time in our sole discretion, to set off any unrealised losses incurred in respect of an Open Position against any funds that we hold on your behalf to your credit; (c) any amounts withdrawn from the segregated client funds.

3.8 Unless we agree otherwise, you will be treated as a Retail Client. We will notify you of your classification in our ‘welcome’ communication, following activation of your Account. 

3.9 If you wish to be re-classified then you must provide us with a written request for re-classification.

3.10 We may conduct additional reviews of your client classification at any time, at our discretion. We will notify you in writing of any circumstances that affect your client classification. 

3.11 If your Account shows that you have Free Balance, you may ask us to make payment to you in respect of your specified amount. Please note that we may at our discretion elect to withhold any payment requested (in whole or in part) if: (a) the amount is required to be maintained with us at all times; or (b) we are lawfully entitled to withhold the amount.

3.12 We will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable if we decide to withhold any part of your Free Balance.

3.13 Withdrawal requests may take up to 3 business days to be processed. We reserve the right to request additional information and/ or documentation to satisfy ourselves that the request is legitimate. In addition, we reserve the right to reject such a request if we consider it to be illegitimate. You accept that in these circumstances there may be a delay in processing your request.

3.14 You acknowledge and agree that withdrawn funds will be deposited in your Account: (a) on the value date received by the institution, net of any transfer fees or other charges that we have incurred, as imposed by the institution (or intermediary involved in the process) that holds the funds; (b) using the same transfer method and the same remitter through which we originally received the funds. 

3.15 From time to time we may, without your permission, merge the funds held in different trading accounts. Under no circumstances does this imply that you have the right to a credit facility. 

3.16 We reserve the right to: (a) decline a withdrawal that you have requested using a specific transfer method; and (b) suggest an alternative transfer method to the one nominated by you.

3.17 We will only withdraw/deposit funds on your behalf if we are satisfied that you or your authorized representative is the sender of the funds. If we are not satisfied with the identity of the sender or the other documentation provided by you in relation to the withdrawal/deposit, we reserve the right to return the funds to the remitter net of any transfer fees or other charges that we incur, using the same transfer method through which we originally received the funds.

3.18 We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that you are informed regarding the progress of any requests referred to in this section, specifically in relation to the expected processing time and the need for any documentation that may delay the processing if not in place.

3.19 Where you have opened more than one Account with us, we will treat your Accounts as entirely separate except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms. 

3.20 Where you request in writing, we may, in our absolute discretion, agree to treat your Accounts as one Account. In this case, all references to your Account in these Terms are taken to be your aggregated Accounts. Such a request, if agreed by us, takes effect on the date we notify you, which is to be no later than 7 days from the date of our receipt of your request.

 

4. ORDERS

4.1 We will conclude your transactions in good faith at all times. We can assess whether a service or transaction is appropriate for you, you are required to provide information regarding your knowledge and experience in the investment field relevant to the specific type of product or service offered. So that we can carry out this assessment, you must ensure that all information you provide is accurate. Unless you advise us in writing that the information you have previously provided is out of date or inaccurate we will be entitled to rely upon it.

4.2 You may obtain a quote from us for an Underlying Instrument Price.

4.3 You acknowledge that: (a) any quote provided by us in accordance with this clause is indicative only; and (b) no Contract is entered into until your Order is accepted by us in accordance with these Terms.

4.4 By placing an Order with us, you may: (a) offer to enter into a new Contract with us; or (b) request us to Close-Out an open Contract.

4.5 You may provide us with oral or written Orders (which includes Orders provided via the Trader-coins Platform). We may acknowledge instructions orally or in writing, as appropriate.

4.6 When placing an Order, you must set out details of: (a) whether you intend to be the Long Party or the Short Party under the Contract; (b) the Contract Quantity; and (c) the Underlying Instrument, and other information applicable to the Order as we may require from time to time. 

4.7 We may in our sole discretion accept an Order in whole or in part. An Order is accepted by us when we record the transaction concerning the Contract in our records.

4.8 An Order is binding on you when we accept the Order. You acknowledge that we may accept an Order without any notice of acceptance, aside from giving you the Confirmation.

4.9 We will inform you if we decide not to accept an Order.

4.10 Orders may be placed as: (a) market Orders to buy or sell an Underlying Instrument as soon as possible at the price obtainable in the market; or (b) limit and stop Orders to trade when the price reaches a predefined level, as applicable to the various Underlying Instruments offered (or a combination of these types of Orders).

4.11 If the bid price for sell Orders or ask price for buy Orders is reached, the Order is filled as soon as possible at the price obtainable in the market. Limit and stop Orders are therefore not guaranteed executable at the specific level or amount.

4.12 Where we do not receive a request to cancel an Order from you until after our acceptance of that Order, the Contract or Close-Out resulting from the acceptance of the Order is valid and binding on you and us under these Terms.

4.13 You acknowledge that any action by you to modify or cancel an Order is ineffective unless: (a) we have received a cancellation notice from you in a form acceptable to us; or (b) we have cancelled the order in our books and records. 

4.14 It is possible that errors, omissions or misquotes (each a “Material Error”) may occur in the pricing of Margin FX Contracts or CFDs quoted by us, which by fault of either of us or any third party, is materially incorrect when taking into account the market conditions and quotes in Underlying Instruments prevailing at the time. A Material Error may include an incorrect price, date, time or Margin FX Contract or CFD or any error or lack of clarity of any information. If a trade is based on a Material Error, we reserve the right without your consent to: (a) amend the terms and conditions of the Margin FX Contract or CFD to reflect what we consider to have been the fair price at the time the Margin Contract or CFD was entered into had there been no Material Error; (b) close the trade and any open Positions resulting from it; (c) void the Margin Contract or CFD from the outset; or (d) refrain from taking action to amend or void the Margin FX Contract or CFD. 

4.15 In the absence of fraud or gross negligence on our part, we are not liable to you for any loss, cost, claim, demand or expense that you incur or suffer (including loss of profits or indirect or consequential losses), arising from or connected with the Material Error, including where the Material Error arises from an information service on which we rely.

4.16 If we reasonably believe that you have manipulated our prices, our execution processes or our trading platform, we may in our sole and absolute discretion, without notice to you: (a) enforce the trade(s) against you if it is a trade(s) which results in you owing money to us; (b) treat all your trades as void from the outset if they are trades which result in us owing money to you, unless you produce conclusive evidence within 30 days of us giving you notice under this clause that you have not committed any breach of warranty, breach of undertaking or misrepresentation in relation to these Terms; (c) withhold any funds suspected to have been derived from any such activities; (d) make any resultant corrections or adjustments to your Account; (e) close your Account; and/or (f) take such other action as we consider appropriate.

5. NO TRANSFER

5.1 A Contract does not transfer the legal or beneficial interest in any Underlying Instrument to you and neither party has any right or obligation to acquire or deliver the Underlying Instruments.

6. REQUIRED MARGIN OBLIGATION

6.1 Our margin requirements apply throughout the term of each Contract. It is your responsibility to ensure that the Required Margin is available on your Account at all times. We may or may not notify you that the Actual Margin is less than the Required Margin. If, at any time during the term of a Contract, the Actual Margin is not sufficient to cover the Required Margin, you must Close-Out open Contracts or transfer adequate funds to us. 

6.2 If, at any time during the term of a Contract, the Actual Margin is less than the Required Margin, the shortfall is immediately due and payable to us. A failure to pay the shortfall amount to us will constitute an Event of Default.

6.3 We provide you with access to information about your Account to enable you to calculate the Required Margin via the Trader-coins Platform. It is your responsibility to ensure that you request all relevant information in respect of your Account before your Orders are placed, including all information in respect of your current open Contracts. We are not responsible for any losses you may suffer or incur as a result of your failure to request any such information. 

7. COMMISSIONS, CHARGES AND OTHER COSTS

7.1 You must pay to us the applicable commissions and charges.

7.2 We may vary our commissions and charges with 30 days’ prior notice to you, if: (a) market conditions, including competitive behavior, mean it is prudent for us to change our conditions; (b) for commercial reasons we wish to change our general cost and pricing structure; or (c) significant particulars of your individual circumstances have changed.

7.3 Occasionally we may be required to vary our commissions and charges without providing you with 30 days’ notice, due to external circumstances beyond our control. When this happens we will provide you with notice as soon as possible. Such circumstances include: (a) changes in relationships with our counterparties which affect our cost structures; (b) changes in commissions (including as a result of significant currency fluctuations, due to us charging commission in foreign currency) and charges from exchanges, clearing houses, information providers or other third party providers that are passed on to you by us. 

7.4 Amounts due under this clause are debited from your Account at Close of Business on the day the commission, charge or other Cost is incurred by you.

8.3 We may vary interest rates without notice when changes are to your advantage, or are due to external circumstances beyond our control.

Any action that we take under this clause will be effective from a date that we set and may be retrospective. Once we make an adjustment to your Contract or Order, it is binding on you. 

13.3 We will assess the value of your open Contracts and calculate the amount of interest that would apply to the amount of money necessary to take out a position in the Underlying Instrument with the same value, each day. We will normally apply a different interest rate depending on whether you are the Long Party or the Short Party.
