Dear customer:

 

Important Announcement on Adjusting the Trading Margin (Margin)

 

Hello! Thank you for your continuous support and trust in Mingde Finance. To continuously provide a stable and reliable trading environment and ensure the safety of clients' funds under extreme market fluctuations, our company will make structural adjustments to the calculation rules of trading margins (deposits) for some CFD products.

 

1) Adjust the background and purpose

Recently, the global precious metals and non-ferrous metals markets (such as gold, silver, palladium, platinum, copper, etc.) have been affected by multiple macroeconomic factors and geopolitical events, with price volatility significantly intensifying and intraday instantaneous fluctuations expanding. Although this kind of market environment contains trading opportunities, it also correspondingly increases the risk exposure of the account.

To implement our responsible financial service philosophy and achieve the following key goals, our company has decided to carry out this margin adjustment:

  1. Risk management first: By implementing more refined margin requirements, we pre-manage the potential margin call risks that clients may face in a highly volatile market, protecting clients from unexpected significant losses caused by extreme market fluctuations.
  2. Ensure platform stability: Guarantee the overall stability of the trading system, prevent chain reactions caused by individual oversized positions during sharp fluctuations, and thereby maintain a fair and orderly trading environment for all clients.
  3. Advocate rational trading: Encourage clients to rationally allocate positions and funds based on market volatility, and promote long-term stable trading habits.

2) Adjust the effective time

This new margin calculation rule will come into effect officially at the opening on January 12, 2026.

 

3) Adjust the details and calculation methods

The new rule will adopt a hierarchical progressive calculation method based on the total number of positions held by the client for the same product. The margin standards for each level are as follows:

 

Holding lot range (for the same product) Margin requirement for each lot(USD)
0 - 10 lots 1,000
>10 - 20 lots 1,500
>20 - 30 lots 2,000
>30 - 40 lots 2,500
>40 - 50 lots 3,000
Note: This is the standard margin requirement. The company reserves the right to make temporary adjustments based on market conditions.

 

【 Calculation Example 】 :
Suppose a client trades XAUUSD (spot gold), and the current new position or open position volume is 12 lots. The margin required is calculated as follows:

  • Lots 1 to 10: Calculated at 1,000 USD per lot → 10 lots × 1,000 USD = 10,000 USD
  • Lots 11 to 12: The number of lots in this part falls within the range of more than 10 to 20 lots. Calculated at 1,500 USD per lot → 2 lots × 1,500 USD = 3,000 USD
  • The total margin required for this client to trade 12 lots of XAUUSD is: 10,000 USD + 3,000 USD = 13,000 USD

【 Key Points 】

  • This calculation is hierarchical progressive, and not all hands are calculated according to the highest standard.
  • This rule mainly targets the total position of a single product. The holding numbers of different products are calculated independently and do not affect each other.

The trading platform will automatically calculate and display the required margin in real time based on your positions. You don't need to calculate it manually.

 

4)  Advice for customers

  1. Re-evaluate positions: Before establishing a new position, please be sure to carefully assess the available margin ratio in accordance with the new margin rules and in combination with the net value of your account.
  2. Pay attention to account alerts: Please closely monitor your account margin level to ensure that your account has sufficient funds to withstand market fluctuations.
  3. Risk management tools: Make good use of risk management tools such as stop-loss orders to set clear risk boundaries for your positions.

We understand that any rule adjustments may take you time to adapt. This adjustment is based on long-term risk management considerations and aims to accompany you through market cycles to achieve a sustainable trading journey.

 

If you have any questions about this adjustment or need further details, please feel free to contact your account manager or our customer service team at any time.

 

Thank you again for your understanding and support!
