Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 1 January 2026  ·  TradesFinders Ltd

Risk warning: Trading CFDs, forex, and cryptocurrencies involves significant risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Losses can exceed your initial deposit. You should only trade with money you can afford to lose. Make sure you understand the risks and seek independent advice if necessary.

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern the relationship between you and TradesFinders Ltd ("TradesFinders", "we", "us") when you use our services. By opening an account or using our platform, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms in full.

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms form a binding legal agreement between you and TradesFinders Ltd. They apply to your use of our website, trading platforms (including our WebTrader and any mobile applications), and all services we provide.

Additional terms may apply to specific products or features — such as our Copy Trading service or AI Trading tools. Where there is a conflict between these Terms and product-specific terms, the product-specific terms take precedence for that product.

2. Eligibility

To open an account with TradesFinders, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, if higher)
  • Be a natural person or a legally incorporated entity
  • Not be a resident of or located in a jurisdiction where the use of our services is restricted or prohibited by law
  • Not be listed on any sanctions lists maintained by OFAC, the EU, UK HM Treasury, or the UN Security Council

We reserve the right to decline any application at our sole discretion. Residents of the United States, Canada, North Korea, Iran, Russia, and certain other sanctioned territories are not eligible for accounts with TradesFinders Ltd. Local regulated entities may serve certain of these markets.

3. Your account

3.1 Account opening

You must provide accurate and complete information during account registration. We are required by law to verify your identity before you can trade or withdraw funds. This process (KYC) requires you to submit a valid government-issued photo ID and proof of address dated within 90 days.

3.2 Account security

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential. You must not share your username, password, or two-factor authentication codes with anyone. If you suspect unauthorised access, contact us immediately. TradesFinders will never ask for your password.

3.3 Single accounts

You may only hold one individual live account with TradesFinders (unless you are registered as a company). Duplicate accounts may be closed at our discretion and any profits generated in a duplicate account may be voided.

4. Trading and orders

4.1 Order execution

We execute client orders on a best execution basis in accordance with our Order Execution Policy. Orders are generally filled at the price shown at the time of submission, subject to available liquidity. During periods of high volatility or low liquidity, slippage may occur.

4.2 Quotes and pricing

Prices quoted on our platform are indicative and subject to change. A transaction is completed only when we have confirmed your order. The prices shown are derived from the rates provided by our liquidity providers.

4.3 Order types

We support market orders, limit orders, stop orders, and stop-limit orders. Pending orders (such as limit and stop orders) are only executed if the market reaches the trigger price. We cannot guarantee execution at the exact trigger price in gapping markets.

5. Fees and charges

Our primary revenue comes from the spread — the difference between the buy and sell price. We do not charge commissions on standard accounts. The following charges may also apply:

  • Overnight financing (swap rates): applied to positions held open past the daily rollover time (usually 22:00 GMT). Rates are published in the platform and updated weekly.
  • Inactivity fee: a monthly charge of $10 (or equivalent) applies to accounts that have had no trading activity for 12 consecutive months.
  • Withdrawal fees: withdrawals by bank transfer are free. Third-party payment processors may charge their own fees, which are passed on to you.
  • Currency conversion: where your account currency differs from the instrument currency, a conversion spread of up to 0.5% may apply.

TradesFinders reserves the right to amend its fee schedule. You will be given at least 30 days' notice of any material fee changes.

6. Client funds

Client funds are held in segregated accounts at top-tier banking institutions, separate from TradesFinders' own operating funds. This means your money cannot be used to meet our business obligations.

Deposits should be made using payment methods registered in your own name. Third-party deposits are not accepted and will be returned. The minimum deposit is $100 (or equivalent). There is no minimum deposit for demo accounts.

Withdrawals are processed within 1–3 business days. We may request additional verification documents before processing large or unusual withdrawal requests, in line with our AML obligations.

7. Leverage and margin

Leverage allows you to open positions larger than your account balance. While this can amplify profits, it equally amplifies losses. Available leverage varies by instrument and account type:

  • Forex majors: up to 1:500 (professional) / 1:30 (retail, EU/UK)
  • Forex minors and exotics: up to 1:200 / 1:20 (retail)
  • Equity CFDs: up to 1:20 / 1:5 (retail)
  • Crypto CFDs: up to 1:10 / 1:2 (retail)
  • Indices: up to 1:100 / 1:20 (retail)

Margin calls are triggered when your account equity falls to 80% of the required margin. Positions are automatically closed (stop-out) when equity falls to 20% of required margin. You are responsible for monitoring your margin level at all times.

8. Risk disclosure

Trading in leveraged financial instruments carries a high level of risk. You should consider the following before trading:

  • You can lose all or more than your invested capital
  • Past performance is not indicative of future results
  • Market conditions can change rapidly due to economic events, political developments, or changes in liquidity
  • Crypto assets are highly volatile and not regulated in the same way as traditional financial instruments
  • Technology failures, internet outages, or platform downtime may affect your ability to trade or close positions

We provide a full Risk Disclosure Statement during account opening, which you must read and acknowledge before trading.

9. Prohibited conduct

You agree not to engage in any of the following:

  • Using automated scripts, bots, or high-frequency trading strategies without our prior written consent
  • Exploiting technical errors, latency, or pricing anomalies (including "tick scalping" or "latency arbitrage")
  • Opening positions with the primary purpose of taking advantage of an error in our quoted price
  • Using the account for money laundering, terrorist financing, or any other illegal purpose
  • Providing false information during registration or KYC
  • Attempting to circumvent our security systems or gain unauthorised access to our platform

If we determine that any trading activity violates these conditions, we reserve the right to void transactions, close positions at current market rates, suspend the account, and recover any funds obtained through prohibited conduct.

10. Termination

You may close your account at any time by contacting us in writing. We will close all open positions and return any remaining balance, after deducting any outstanding fees, within 5 business days.

TradesFinders may terminate or suspend your account with immediate effect if: you breach these Terms, we are required to do so by law or a regulator, or we have reason to believe your account is being used for illegal activity.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TradesFinders shall not be liable for: losses arising from market movements, indirect or consequential losses, losses due to platform downtime or technical failures beyond our control, or losses resulting from your failure to monitor open positions.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

12. Complaints and disputes

If you have a complaint, please contact us at complaints@tradesfinders.com. We will acknowledge your complaint within 2 business days and aim to resolve it within 15 business days. If you're not satisfied with our response, you have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) in the UK.

13. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes that cannot be resolved through our complaints process will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, unless your local consumer protection laws provide you with a right to bring proceedings in your home jurisdiction.

Clients served by our other regulated entities (CySEC, DFSA, FSA Seychelles) are subject to the laws of their respective jurisdiction as specified in their client agreement.
