Risk Management and Position Sizing
Managing risk is vital, especially when trading with a minimum deposit. We recommend risking no more than 2% of your account balance per trade, equating to $2 risk on a $100 deposit. Our platforms feature guaranteed stop losses, negative balance protection, and margin call alerts to safeguard capital during volatility.
- Use stop-loss orders to limit potential losses
- Calculate position size with built-in tools
- Apply leverage cautiously, especially for beginners
- Diversify to spread risk across multiple instruments
- Regularly review open trades and adjust risk accordingly
Position calculators automatically determine lot sizes based on risk tolerance and account size, streamlining trade setup for Indian clients.
Instrument Selection for Small Accounts
Major Currency Pairs
We provide access to 70+ forex pairs, with major pairs like EUR/USD and GBP/USD offering the tightest spreads and best liquidity. These pairs suit Indian traders with smaller accounts due to their lower volatility and reliable pricing during London and New York sessions.
CFD Trading Options
CFDs on stocks, commodities, and indices offer exposure to global markets without owning assets outright. Minimum trade sizes start at 0.01 lots, allowing flexible participation for accounts with limited capital. Commodity CFDs such as gold and oil diversify portfolios beyond forex exposure, while index CFDs track broad market trends.
| Instrument Category | Minimum Trade Size | Typical Spread | Trading Hours (IST) |

| Major Forex Pairs | 0.01 lots | 1.2-2.0 pips | 24/5 |
