Trading Etiquette

1. General instructions

  • When a client is unable to trade via his platform, he/she can give instructions over the phone. All instructions must be given in English.
  • Gold and VIP clients are offered unrestricted phone access to the Dealing Desk for trade execution
  • The conversations below are examples of how to conduct a telephone transaction. Clients must adhere to the Telephone Trading Etiquette when giving instructions over the phone.
  • If the Client can’t provide the order number, the dealer may accept the instruction if all other details are given correctly to identify the order.
  • If the conversation has ended for any reason, without being complete in accordance with the Telephone Trading Etiquette, the Client is responsible for his/her orders and/or instructions.
  • The Client would normally have about 3 seconds to agree to a price quoted by the dealer, or might receive a range in which the order may be executed, depending on market conditions. If the client fails to reply and the price changes, the dealer has the right to re-quote the updated price.
  • When trading over the phone, the Client receives the same prices available on the trading platform.
