Important Market Update – Notice on the Implementation of Higher Margin Requirements (HMR) for Weekends and Market Openings

Dear Valued Clients,
 
Greetings!

Recently, the international market has witnessed a significant surge in volatility driven by multiple factors including geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic policy changes, leading to elevated trading risks in the market。

To safeguard the security of your trading account and mitigate potential risks arising from market fluctuations and gap openings after weekends, Maxain will implement the High Margin Requirement (HMR) policy prior to the weekly market close on weekends and following the market opening on Mondays, with corresponding adjustments to the maximum leverage ratios for relevant tradable products。

1. HMR Implementation Period
HMR Effective Time: 1 hour prior to the weekly market close (Server Time) on weekends

HMR Expiry Time: 1 hour after the market opening (Server Time) on Mondays

2. Affected Products and Maximum Leverage Limits

During the aforementioned HMR period, the maximum leverage ratios for the following products will be adjusted as follows:

SymbolMaximum Leverage During HMR
Gold(XAUUSD)1:100
Silver(XAGUSD)1:50

3. Important Reminders

  • Impact on Open Positions: The HMR policy applies not only to newly opened orders but also to existing open positions during the HMR period. If the margin level of your account becomes insufficient due to the reduced leverage, your positions may be subject to forced liquidation。
  • Fund Management: We strongly recommend that you check the margin level of your account in advance before the HMR takes effect, and close partial positions or add additional funds to your account as appropriate。
  • Automatic Restoration: The leverage ratios for the affected products will be automatically restored to your original account settings 1 hour after the market opens on Mondays。


4. Risk Warning
During the weekend market close, global macroeconomic developments, geopolitical events and other factors may trigger sharp price fluctuations of relevant products upon market reopening. The market may also experience low liquidity, widened spreads and other conditions, and trading with high leverage entails significant risks. We advise you to reasonably control your account positions, ensure sufficient margin in your account, avoid the risk of margin shortage caused by market fluctuations, and conduct trading operations with prudence during the HMR implementation period as well as prior to the release of major policies and news。
