What are crypto CFDs?
A crypto CFD is a contract that allows traders to trade on the difference in a cryptocurrency’s price from when you first open a position to when you close it. This means you can make trades on whether you think a crypto will go up (or down) in value. As you are speculating on prices through a contract, you will not directly own the crypto coins or need a special “hot wallet” to hold your coins.
Typical crypto margins
The table below shows our typical crypto CFD margins. Please note this chart represents typical pricing and margins might change due to market conditions. All Crypto CFDs are in notional value which is calculated by multiplying the units in one contract by the spot price.

Crypto FAQs
What are crypto CFDs?
A crypto CFD is a contract that allows traders to trade on the difference in a cryptocurrency’s price from when you first open a position to when you close it. This means you can make trades on whether you think a crypto will go up (or down) in value.
As you are speculating on prices through a contract, you will not directly own the crypto coins or need a special “hot wallet” to hold your coins.
What crypto can I trade?
On our Premier accounts, all cryptocurrencies are available with our tightest spreads, with commission applied.
On our Standard accounts, you can trade all Group 1 instruments with leverage up to 1:100. BTCUSD, ETHUSD, XRPUSD, ADAUSD, SOLUSD and BNBUSD can be traded commission-free, while standard commission still applies to other cryptocurrencies.
Where can I trade crypto CFDs?
Open an trading account to trade cryptocurrency CFDs on our powerful and secure trading platform, MT5.
What’s the main difference between crypto CFDs and crypto coins?
CFD (or ‘Contract for Differences’) trading involves different types of contracts covering a diverse set of financial instruments such as indices, commodities or crypto - whereas crypto coins refer to assets held as virtual currency.
Crypto coins normally need to be held in a special wallet and their value is affected by market events. As you don’t own the asset directly with a crypto CFD, you can open a position for a crypto coin’s price increasing (go long) or decreasing (go short). This allows the trader to capture potential profits on the rise or fall of prices - and to increase a position at a fraction of the deposit by using leverage. Always remember that prices can move up or down, so it’s important to always trade within your means and use appropriate risk management.
When can I trade crypto CFDs?
Crypto trading hours are as follows:
Sunday - Friday: 00:01 - 23:59 GMT +3
Saturday: 00:01 - 13:00, 15:00 - 23:59 GMT +3
Leveraged crypto break (EOD rollovers): 23:59 - 00:01 GMT +3
Trading hours may be affected by public holidays or global events.
Stay updated by checking our Market Holiday Hours page.
How does margin work on Crypto CFDs?
Margin is charged as shown in the table above.
We increase the margin to 5% for our Group 1 cryptocurrencies starting one hour before our maintenance break on Saturday morning, and this remains in effect until the end of the break.
Also note that we charge margin for cryptocurrencies on a ‘larger leg’ basis. This means that if you are partially hedged, margin will be charged on the larger position.
For example, if you are long 0.5 BTCUSD and short 0.2 BTCUSD, margin will be charged on the 0.5 BTCUSD long exposure. If you are fully hedged (equally long and short), margin will only be charged on one side.
What commissions will I pay when trading crypto?
If you have a Standard or Classic account, you can trade BTCUSD, ETHUSD, XRPUSD, ADAUSD, SOLUSD and BNBUSD without any commission.
All other cryptocurrencies have a commission of 8 bps on Standard accounts and 10 bps on Classic accounts.
On Premier accounts, all cryptocurrencies are available with our tightest spreads and a 4 bps commission.
