**For TN Trader/TradingView accounts, all FX, index, commodity and bond markets use fixed bid-offer spreads that adjust at set times during the day, typically reflecting in- and out-of-hours conditions. Equities use a fixed add-on spread applied to the underlying bid-offer, which is variable. For detailed pricing, refer to the market information section.

***Tax rules can change and will vary depending on your personal circumstances. They may also differ if you’re trading from outside the UK.

FAQs

/

We offer leverage up to 30:1 on major FX pairs, 20:1 on gold, equities and indices, and 10:1 on commodities, in line with FCA regulations. Your leverage depends on the market you choose, and all products come with negative balance protection.

/

At Trade Nation, margin is calculated based on the position size and the specific market you’re trading. The platform shows the “Estimated Margin” when you enter a trade.

For example, if you opened a Rolling Cash index trade where the margin requirement is 5%, then a nominal position value of £55,000 would only require about £2,750 in margin.

The stop-out level (automatic closure of positions) is triggered when your margin level falls to 50%. In the above example, this would be £1,225.

If your equity falls to 50% of the required margin, our platform will automatically begin closing positions to protect you from larger losses. This built-in protection helps reduce the risk of early liquidation or negative balances.

/

You can spread bet on our in-house platform, TN Trader, or on TradingView.

/

We’re regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

No. You can trade with zero commissions across FX, indices, shares and commodities. Costs are built into our competitive, fixed spreads.

For positions held overnight, some low-cost financing fees may apply past market close. 

For long positions: Trade Nation uses the 1-month interbank rate plus a 2.5% charge for the relevant currency market. 

For short positions: If the interbank rate is below 2.5% then a net charge applies; if above 2.5% you could receive a credit. 

Futures markets are not subject to overnight funding.
