What is Free Margin and how does it affect the amount I can withdraw?

Free Margin is the amount calculated from the value of the equity of the account, less the used margin of open positions.

Account equity – used margin = Free Margin

This is a dynamic calculation that changes with the changing values of the open positions.

If you request a withdrawal with a value higher than your Free Margin, you will be notified of the maximum amount you can withdraw based on your current Free Margin calculation.

💡 If a bonus has been applied to your account and you haven’t met the required trading volume, you’ll need to manually deduct the bonus amount, as outlined in the bonus terms and conditions.
