Stop Level

The stop level is the minimum distance (difference in pips) between the current market price and the pending order price. The stop level values in the contract specifications table are subject to change and may not be available for traders using certain high-frequency trading strategies or Expert Advisors.

Spreads

Tronex offers floating spreads on all indices for all account types. Therefore, the spreads in the contract specifications table represent the average spread based on the previous trading day. For live spreads, please refer to the trading platform. Please note that spreads may widen when the markets experience lower liquidity, including rollover time.

Fixed leverage

Tronex offers fixed leverage on certain account types. In this case, the maximum leverage displayed in the contract specifications table will NOT change based on your net open positions. The fixed leverage applies to Cent & Micro account types.

Chart prices

Tronex offers a variety of trading accounts to suit each trader’s needs and preferences. We offer accounts with raw pricing on which additional commissions are charged. Other account types have no commission but instead have mark-ups incorporated in the prices. By default, the chart in the MetaTrader trading platforms will display the raw pricing, while the market watch will display the pricing of the account type that the client is trading on.

Dividend adjustments

Dividends are paid by companies to shareholders as a means of distributing profits. After a share pays dividends, its price typically falls by the same amount. Indices reflect the weighted average share price of a group of underlying shares. When one or more companies whose shares are part of an index pay dividends, the index price will also decrease by the weighted average value of the dividend(s). Therefore, when trading CFD indices, dividend adjustments are applied to open indices positions when dividends are paid in the underlying market. It is important to follow the latest updates on the Trading Notices pages to stay informed about upcoming dividend adjustments.

Higher margin requirements

We apply risk management measures to protect positions from possible high volatility during key events and specific time periods that impact the general volatility of the market. Higher amounts of margin are required to open an order during these periods, known as HMR (Higher Margin Requirements) periods. The higher margin requirements will apply only to positions opened within these periods. The margin requirements of existing positions will not be affected. Closing an open hedged position during HMR periods can fail if there is insufficient free margin to cover the higher margin requirements, specifically the higher margin requirements on the latter half of a hedged order at the time of closing. The HMR periods include: Economic News Periods: All forex trading that happens from 15 minutes before major news releases until 10 minutes after will be subject to higher margin requirements. Weekends & Holidays: All forex trading that happens from 2 hours before markets close on Friday and for 1 hour after markets open on Monday will be subject to higher margin requirements. The same rule applies to trading holidays.

Dynamic Leverage

Tronex offers dynamic leverage on indices for most account types. The leverage values in the contract specifications table represent the maximum leverage for each trading instrument. The maximum leverage will change based on your net open positions. For more details, please check the Dynamic Leverage page.

FAQs

What is indices trading?

Indices trading involves buying and selling contracts based on the performance of a specific stock index, such as the S&P 500, Dow Jones, or NASDAQ. Traders speculate on the price movements of the index, which reflects the overall performance of a group of stocks within a particular market or sector.

What are stock indices?

Stock indices are statistical measures that represent the value of a group of stocks. They are used to gauge the performance of a specific segment of the stock market. Examples include the S&P 500 (representing 500 large U.S. companies) and the FTSE 100 (representing the 100 largest companies listed in the UK).

How do indices differ from individual stocks?

While individual stocks represent ownership in a specific company, indices represent a collection of stocks and reflect the overall market or sector performance. Indices provide a broader view of the market and are less volatile than individual stocks.

How does indices trading work?

Indices trading works by speculating on the price movement of a stock index. Traders can buy or sell index CFDs (Contract for Differences) or futures contracts based on the direction they believe the index will move. If the index price goes in the trader’s favor, they make a profit; if it moves against them, they incur a loss.

What is a CFD in indices trading?

A CFD (Contract for Difference) is a financial derivative that allows traders to speculate on the price movement of an index without owning the underlying assets. When trading index CFDs, traders can profit from both rising and falling markets.
