Leverage and Margin

We apply dynamic leverage.

The account is available in three different currencies: USD / JPY / BTC.
The leverage offered will vary depending on the total amount of your account balance, bonus credits and unrealized profits and losses including swaps.

• In the case of BTC accounts: The JPY and BTC in the account will be converted into USD at the rate at the time of the decision and the leverage will be changed if the USD conditions are met.
• In case of USD account: Leverage will be changed when USD conditions are met.
• In case of JPY account: Leverage will be changed when the JPY conditions are met.

• The leverage will be increased only when the position is not held.
• The leverage will decrease even when the position is held.
  (When leverage decreases, priority will be given to the appropriate leverage to ensure that the margin maintenance ratio is at least 200%, rather than the amount requirement above)
• Leverage may be limited at the discretion of the financial institutions engaging cover deals.

• Leverage on demo account is fixed at 888x.
• About limited account
  When the accumulated profit + unrealized profit reaches more than 500,000 JPY (JPY account) or 5,000 USD (USD account), the settlement will be forced.
  If there is no deposit (transfer of funds to the limited account) for more than one week after the account is opened, the limited account may be frozen or deleted.
  It is not possible to transfer funds that would increase the balance of your MT5 (Limited Account) above 100,000 JPY (JPY Account) or 1,000 USD (USD Account).
  If you transfer funds from your Bitterz Wallet to your MT5 account, you will not be eligible for the deposit bonus.
  Credit bonus cannot be transferred to MT5 (Limited Account) and will be forfeited if funds are transferred from MT5 (Standard Account) to MT5 (Limited Account).
  Limited accounts are not eligible for bonus. (No deposit bonus or account opening bonus will be given. )

Margin Call, Stop-Out

To protect your balance, if the margin maintenance ratio falls below a certain level, your open positions get automatically closed.

If your margin maintenance ratio falls below 150%, we will notify you with a margin call.
If your margin maintenance ratio falls below 100%, we will automatically close your open positions. (Stop-Out).

Negative Balance Protection

Due to sudden market fluctuations, your account may shrink before stop-outs are triggered resulting a 100% loss of account equity.

With Negative Balance Protection any losses that exceed your account balance will be reset to 0.
This applies for all customers even if you have not received bonus credits. Reset to 0 should be done within 60 minutes.

Keep in mind that we will not require additional funding when negative balance occurs.
