FXTF has joined Golden Way under its umbrella, improving trading rules! If you’re starting MT4, now is a great time!!
In December 2018, FX Trade Financial (FXTF)’s parent company shifted to the Hong Kong–centered financial group “Golden Way.” With this move, a new system for beginners and changes to existing MT4 trading rules are being implemented or planned. Here we introduce the main changes among them.
Partial Changes to FXTF MT4 Trading Rules
The trading rule changes covered here have been in effect since Monday, January 28, 2019. In the future, leverage changes for some currency pairs (ZARJPY) are scheduled for April 1.
1. Stop-out rules (lowering the trigger point)
The trigger point for forced stop-out has been lowered from 100% to 50% of required margin maintenance.
FXTF MT4
In the past (2015–2016), due to rapid market moves such as the Swiss franc shock that increased the risk of unrealized losses, FXTF temporarily raised the maintenance margin from 50% to 100% for investor protection. However, currently the volatility of most currency pairs (with few exceptions) has been declining, and after considering both safer investing and improved convenience for users, the stop-out level has been lowered this time.
Lowering the maintenance margin from 100% to 50% enables larger trades and improves user convenience. Trades with the same margin as before can better withstand unforeseen events like crashes, potentially allowing more active trading.
However, note that this level lowering applies to times outside FXTF’s maintenance margin judgment times (15:30–15:35).
2. Increase in maximum order size for the 1,000 currency unit tier
The maximum order size for the 1,000-currency tier increases from 200,000 units (2 lots) to 1,000,000 units (10 lots).

This also improves convenience for large trades. Previously, placing a 1,000,000 unit trade required at least five orders. With this change, you can execute it in a single order, enabling smoother large trades. The procedural hassle and delays in execution in important moments may also have a positive mental effect beyond time efficiency.
3. Planned leverage changes for some currency pairs
From Monday, April 1, 2019, for individual users using FXTF MT4, the leverage for ZARJPY will change from 25x to 12.5x. Consequently, required margin will increase, so please manage your account funds carefully.
