v. Leverage USDTRY 1:25, EURTRY 1:15. Swaps will be charged on these currency pairs even if a swap-free setting is enabled. We reserve the right to stop out accounts trading these currency pairs at 10%.
Margin Requirement Calculation Formulas:
Example for calculating the margin requirement for ICM Direct trades is as follows:
Required Margin = (Trade Size (lot size) / leverage) * account currency exchange rate (if different from the base currency in the pair being traded).
Example:
Trading 1 lot of GBP/USD using 1:200 leverage with an account currency denominated in USD
1 lot = 100,000
Leverage = 200
Base currency/Account currency exchange rate = 1.58
100,000/200 = 500
500 * 1.58 = 790
Required margin on this trade is $790.Swap Policy
ICM offers Islamic accounts to clients following the Muslim faith. Forex Islamic accounts are also known as swap-free accounts as they imply no swap or rollover interest on overnight positions, which is against Islamic faith.
ICM reserves the right to discontinue an Islamic/SWAP-free account without warning. ICM will invoke this right in case of suspicion of abuse, in which case ICM may, at its sole discretion, decide to close all open positions in the account and deduct or add swaps for all transactions currently and/or previously made in the account and decline from accepting any further requests from the Client to be exempted from SWAP. -
