FX trading is a true 24-hour market. It has minimal transaction costs, low capital requirements, and greater liquidity.
At City Index, you can take advantage of the volatility and liquidity of the world’s largest market, trading spot FX on margin - in USD. Match your trading style with our customisable trading platform, wide range of FX pairs, adaptable lot sizes, interactive charting packages and variable leverage retail forex offering.
Leverage to Suit
At City Index, you can choose from a leverage ratio of 20:1 to 50:1. This enables you to select which leverage ratio you want for your trades, to help better fit your person trading style. This means that our leverage levels can help cater for all retail forex traders regardless of style, strategy or risk evaluations, thus giving you greater scope to manage risk and control your trading in line with your risk appetite.
Transparent pricing
Transparent pricing takes away the tricky calculations. Our consistent fixed tight spreads can reduce your trading costs and, more importantly, you will always know the spread at which you can trade, even when low liquidity may widen underlying forex spreads. At City Index, the spreads at which you trade will remain the same throughout, giving you a distinct trading edge over other forex traders.
With no hidden fees and charges and, no commission, you will always know the cost of a trade upfront, before you place it. You can also use the City Index Roll Over Calculator to identify any roll over costs that your trades might induce before you actually place the trade, increasing price and trade transparency further.
Micro or mini?
At City Index, it is possible to set your own lot size. You can trade micro or mini lots of 1,000 to 100,000, depending on your strategy. Flexible rather than standard fixed lot sizes allow you to have a more powerful management of risk exposure, ensuring a fully customisable trading experience.
Trade the opportunity as you see it
Real-time prices ensure that there is no price lag, allowing for immediate execution to maximise your profit potential, even in volatile markets. With your City Index forex trading account, you can rely on no delay, one-click multiple location trading - chart direct, floating rate or buy/sell tickets - that doesn’t lose valuable time via order tickets and dealer processing.
Flexible risk management
Protective trailing stops move with the market to help safeguard against adverse developments without stifling your potential profits. They trail the market and can protect an open position being sold out before the market rebounds, without limiting would-be upsides.
Advanced charting
The powerful FX AccuCharts package delivers high performance, real-time data that gives FX traders the best possible technical analysis opportunities necessary to make trading decisions. This highly valued charting solution comes fully integrated within the GTS trading platform (free of charge) allowing you to build your own indicators.
