– Commission to transfer the deal on the next day.
How to Calculate Profit
The Forex trade result consists of the difference between the opening price and the closing price of the asset. In long trading, the trader earns a profit from the price’s growth. The short trading is the opposite, with the profit earned from the lowering of the price.A simple formula will help you with that:
(Difference between the opening and closing of the trade / Current price) * Investment’s volume *Multiplier - Commission = Profit.
For example, a trader opened a long trade for USD/JPY. The opening price is 105,000. The closing price is 105,500. $100 was invested. Multiplier equals x500. Just like that, the trade volume is $50,000, with the opening commission of $4.
((105,500 - 105,000) / 105,500) * 100 * 500 - 4 = $232.9
If the multiplier is x1, then you can skip the part with multiplying by it.
How to Determine Potential Profit Quickly
Set up the multiplier and the investment. If you want to open a long trade, then point your mouse on the trade opening button “Up”. Now, pay attention to the profitability scale on the chart. It will help you to find out the amount of profit (or how much you will lose) you will receive if the asset reaches a certain price.Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Trades made on Forex are not limited in time. A position can be closed manually or automatically upon reaching the values specified when setting a Stop Out, Stop Loss, or Take Profit.
Topping Up a Trade
In your trading you may come across instances when the price chart approaches the Stop Loss level, but you’d like to keep the trade open for longer, to give it a chance to go from lossmaking to profitable. In such a case, you can add money to the trade (“top up”) to postpone the Stop Loss closure.How it works:
1. Open a Forex trade with a multiplier greater than x1.
2. Set a Stop Loss level on the chart.
3. Drag the SL level towards -100%/-50% of the transaction amount (depending on the Stop Out level of that asset).
4. A confirmation dialogue will appear with the new terms for your trade. Youll be offered to increase the trade amount and lower the multiplier. The total volume of the position will stay the same.
5. Confirm the changes. The required amount will be added to the trade from your account balance. The Stop Loss will be set at a new level and the trade will remain open.
Additional information:
- Maximum level for trade top-up is limited by the amount available in the trading account. One can not add more money to a trade than what they have on the balance.
- Maximum level for topping up a trade is limited by multiplier x1. As soon as the multiplier is down to x1, you can not add any more money to the trade.
- Maximum amount of trade top-up can be more than the maximum preset transaction amount.
- There are no commissions for topping up a Forex trade.
