These terms and conditions (also referred to as the "Agreement") are entered by you as the person or entity (the "Client"), that has applied to open a Trading Account with the Company.
In these terms and conditions, "we" "us" or "our" refers to the Company and "Client", "you" or "your" refers to the person or entity that wishes to use the Trading Services.

However, there may be circumstances where our exchange rates displayed on our Trading Platform differ to those on other platforms or exchange markets.

3.1.1 When you purchase assets via your Trading Account, you must first either (i) transfer sufficient flat currency to our designated account to fund the purchase; or (ii) already hold a sufficient flat currency in your Trading Account to fund the purchase ("Purchase Funds").
3.1.2 Purchase Funds may be paid to us by bank transfer (e.g. SEPA transfer or UK Faster Payments bank transfer), or by any other methods permitted by us from time to time and in any currency acceptable to us. At registration, you will be provided with a unique reference number which you will be required to provide when purchasing funds. This enables the Company to credit your Trading Account with the corresponding amount once Purchase Funds are received.
3.1.3 When you transfer Purchase Funds by way of bank transfer, you should only do so from a bank account previously notified to us and associated with your Trading Account and which is located in your country of residence and registered under your name. On making a payment to us, you should send us an authentic swift confirmation, including full bank account details. If either of these conditions are not met, i.e., if the Client's bank details do not conform to the Client's details as registered with us or if you fail to provide the swift confirmation, this may result in the Purchase Funds not being credited to the Client's Trading Account and the return of the funds from the Company to the Client (net of any transfer fees applied).
3.1.4 Purchase Funds are treated by the Company as its own for the purpose of securing or covering the Client's present, future, actual, contingent or prospective obligations arising from instructions received by the Company from the Client, subject only to any contractual obligation of the Company to pay or return money to the Client according to these terms and conditions. Purchase Funds paid to the Company by the Client, together with any profit or other benefits the Client may be entitled to under these terms and conditions, or any specific arrangement with the Company, are not held on trust or in any form of client asset account and Client's entitlement to same is as an unsecured creditor of the Company.
3.2.1 You may give us an instruction during normal business hours to pay the balance of any fiat currency owing to you and shown as such in your Trading Account (instructions received outside of business hours or on a non-business day, will be processed at the next business day). Repayments shall only be made in the same currency and to the same source from which the funds were originally transferred, unless the Company has accepted a request by the Client to return of funds to a different account in the name of the Client or by a different payment method. Fees, charges or commissions applied by banks, payment institutions etc. to process the payment shall be for the Client's account.
3.2.2 If the Client gives an instruction to the Company to withdraw funds from the Trading Account, the Company shall withdraw the specified amount (less any transfer charges) within five business days once a duly executed instruction has been received and at the moment of payment, the Client has no outstanding obligations to the Company (for fees or to settle a purchase of assets). The Company may cancel the Client withdrawal order, if and to the extent that, according to the Company's discretion, the funds remaining in the Trading Account (after the withdrawal) would not be sufficient to secure any outstanding open position(s) in the Trading Account.
3.2.3 The Company shall have the authority to reduce any balance on the Client's Trading Account for all applicable fees and charges. If the Client has the obligation to pay any amount to the Company which exceeds the amount held in the Client's Trading Account, the Client shall immediately pay such amount upon Company on demand.

If any order is received by the Company by telephone, computer or other way, the Company may ask the Client to confirm such order in writing. The Company shall be under no obligation to act upon such order until such confirmation is received. Orders for the simultaneous sale and purchase of assets on behalf of the same Client may, at our absolute discretion, be netted so that there is a single transaction (one shall cancel another).
3.3.3 The Client authorises the Company to rely and act on any trade placed via the Trading Platform, or other order, written request or instruction or other documented communication given or made (or purporting to be given or made) by the Client or any person authorised on the Client's behalf, without further enquiry on the part of the Company as to the authenticity, genuineness, authority or identity of the person giving or purporting to give such order, request, instruction or other communication.
3.3.4 The Client will be responsible for and will be bound by all obligations entered into or assumed by the Company on behalf of the Client in consequence of or in connection with such orders, requests, instructions or other communication.

Such limits and/or parameters may be amended, increased, decreased, removed or added to by the Company and may include (without limitation): (i) controls over maximum order amounts and maximum order sizes; (ii) controls over total exposure of the Company to the Client; (iii) controls over prices at which orders may be submitted (including, without limitation, controls over orders which are at a price which differs greatly from the market price at the time the order is submitted to the Company's order book); (iv) controls over any electronic services provided by the Company to the Client (including, without limitation, any verification procedures to ensure that any particular order(s) has come from the Client); or (v) any other limits, parameters or controls which the Company may be required to implement in accordance with applicable regulations. The Company may, in addition, require the Client to limit the number of open transactions which the Client may have with the Company at any time. The Company shall notify the Client of the limits and restrictions applicable prior to Client placing an order.
3.3.7 The Company is entitled, by its own discretion, to cancel any order that has been executed for reasons including but not limited to an error caused by any system malfunction or error of any exchange or pricing source. The Company's record will serve as decisive evidence to the correct rates in relevant markets and the wrong rate quote given to the Client, and the Company is entitled to correct or cancel any Client order based on the correct rates.
3.3.8 The Client can see their open trades and funds situation at any time by accessing their Trading Account via the Trading Platform and by viewing past trade reports generated by the Company.

We will use all reasonable endeavours to provide our Trading Services to you on a best execution basis.

3.5.2 We will price the trade based on the prevailing market prices available to us and inform you of either the amount of fiat currency you will receive (where the value of the trade is expressed in terms of a quantity of assets to be sold); or the quantity of assets you will need to sell (where the value of the trade is expressed in terms of the amount of fiat currency to be received) based on this price. We will notify you our applicable charges for the transaction.
3.5.3 We will provide either an indicative price or a firm price depending on whether we are in receipt of cleared assets in our custodian(s). Only an indicative price can be provided if we are not yet in receipt of the assets.

3.7 We retain the right to refuse to accept any request to trade from you at any time in our absolute discretion.
3.8 If, at any time, the Company and you have payment and delivery obligations with respect to multiple completed trades in the same assets, we may net such completed trades against each other as follows: (i) any assets that you are required to deliver will be netted against any assets that we are required to deliver; (ii) any fiat currency that you are required to pay will be netted against any fiat currency that we are required to pay; and (iii) a net number of units of the relevant assets will be delivered by either you or us (as relevant) against a net purchase price to be paid by the other party.

1. Prior to applying for a Trading Account, the Client should consider carefully whether trading in the assets markets and the use of other services offered by the Company, (hereinafter: "trading") is suitable for them in the light of their circumstances and financial resources and the risks described herein.
2. Trading in the assets markets is considered highly risky and speculative. Assets markets for trading are characterized as highly volatile markets with inherently high risk, and such volatility may cause high losses within a short period of time. The Company is not and will not be responsible for the trades executed, or not executed, by the Client.
3. The Client is ultimately responsible for all the losses suffered in their Trading Account. Therefore, the Client should be prepared to lose all funds which they have deposited. The Client is also responsible for losses that exceed its profits and funds placed with the Company. The Client should never fund their trading activities with retirement savings, loans, mortgages, emergency funds, funds set aside for purposes such as education or home ownership, or funds required for current income or present or future medical expenses.
4. Competition and sophistication - trading requires some knowledge of the relevant markets, trading techniques and strategies. Therefore, a previous investment and trading experience is necessary. No guarantees are offered or represented by the Company regarding the returns that can be expected from trading.
5. Rules and regulations - the Client must know and follow the rules and regulations applicable to the Company's trading services as set forth in the documents and Agreements delivered to and signed or approved (by way of internet approval) by the Client. Not following the rules and regulations applicable to trading or any other applicable regulation may result in forced closure of positions ("trades"), temporary freezing of the Client's account, closing the account and/or other actions necessary for the protection of the Company.
6. Knowledge of our software programs - the Client must be knowledgeable in the use and functionality of the trading software provided by the Company accessible via the Trading Platform, or by any third- party provider, in order to correctly interpret account information and to be able to request the placement of orders correctly. The Client shall be responsible for all orders placed in their account, regardless of their understanding of the system's functionality. If the Client is not in complete understanding of the way the system operates, they should not trade before obtaining the required knowledge.
7. Overnight positions are considered risky. Holding large positions, especially after the close of the relevant market (or in any case of cease of commerce, corporate events, freeze of trading on a security etc.), may result in considerable losses. Opening prices (next day or renew of commerce) can be significantly different from the previous closing prices; such price changes may also significantly change the result of stop-loss orders.
8. The Company makes no warranty regarding the effectiveness, accuracy or efficiency of third-party Trading Platforms or exchanges. From time to time, the Client may have difficulty accessing their Trading Account data due to a possible myriad of technical problems. The Company makes no warranty of merchantability, no warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, and no other warranty of any kind, express or implied, regarding this service, data or information provided thereby, or any aspect regarding the order entry or execution services, except as required by applicable law, regarding possible damages, including, but not limited to, lost profits, trading losses or damages that result from reliance on inaccurate data, or delay or loss of access to customer account execution services.
9. The Trading Services provided are intended to provide professional and non-professional traders with a mechanism for execution of trades. Nothing in this service constitutes investment advice or a recommendation by the Company or its affiliates to buy, sell or hold a particular assets discussed therein or the suitability for making any such investment.
10.
