Accounts & headline costs
Sections ↑KCM Trade’s global account-choice page identifies STP and ECN. STP has a directly stated USD 1,000 initial deposit. The revised ECN article is mainly educational: its USD 30,000 example is explicitly qualified, so it should not be treated as an unconditional current account quotation.[4][6]
Principal account choices
| Attribute | STP | ECN |
|---|---|---|
| Entry deposit | USD 1,000 | Higher than STP; article illustrates USD 30,000, subject to confirmationSource 5Source 6 |
| Account currency / platforms | USD; MT4 / MT5 | USD; MT4 / MT5 in qualified exampleSource 5Source 6 |
| Execution / hedge margin | Market execution; 0% hedged margin | Market execution; 0% in exampleSource 5Source 6 |
| Commission / maximum ticket | No commission; 20 lots | Example: no commission; 20 lotsSource 5Source 6 |
| Account-page stop-out | 50% | 50% in example; conflicts with dedicated 20% guidanceSource 5Source 6 |
Headline FX pricing — linked STP table
| Instrument | Lowest spread | Contract / pip value | Order size |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | 3.4 pips | 100,000 EUR; USD 10 per pip per lot | 0.01–20 lotsSource 37 |
| USD/JPY | 4.6 pips | 100,000 USD; JPY 1,000 per pip per lot | 0.01–20 lotsSource 37 |
| GBP/USD | 3.6 pips | 100,000 GBP; USD 10 per pip per lot | 0.01–20 lotsSource 37 |
These are the public table’s STP minima. They have no typical-spread sampling window. The MT5 page’s general “from 0.6 pips” headline is not a substitute for these pair-specific rows, and execution can differ from a displayed quote.[42]
Practice and account control
| Topic | What the current help establishes |
|---|---|
| Demo | Virtual funds; no limit on demo-account count. KCM says trading conditions mirror real accounts, but no live fill or liquidity equivalence was tested.Source 7 |
| Leverage selection | CRM shows Actual leverage; changes require an email to customer service.Source 10 |
| Statements and read-only access | CRM offers trading-history statements; a separate read-only password permits viewing without trading.Source 10 |
Products & market access
Sections ↑Product families and the form of exposure
| Market | Published offer | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | Major, minor and exotic currency pairs | The linked current table contains 43 rows; enabled symbols must be checked in the account.Source 32Source 37 |
| Metals | Gold and silver, including cross-currency contracts | Lot quantity and leverage vary by symbol; one gold lot is not universally 100 ounces.Source 33 |
| Energy | Oil CFDs; product page also mentions Brent | The linked table identifies Texas crude spot and futures; a current Brent contract row was not recovered.Source 34 |
| Indices | Regional equity benchmarks | CFDs track price exposure; they do not confer ownership of an index portfolio.Source 35 |
| Stocks | Share CFDs | The share is the reference asset; the CFD does not establish direct share ownership, voting or custody rights.Source 36 |
Gold, silver and exact oil contracts
Selected precious-metal specifications
| Symbol | Contract quantity | Published lowest spread | Published maximum leverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| XAUUSD | 100 troy ounces | 2.5; spread unit not stated in header | 400–1,000Source 38 |
| XAUJPY | 100 troy ounces | 95; unit requires confirmation | 1,000Source 38 |
| XAUCNH | 1,000 grams | 3.2; unit requires confirmation | 200–1,000Source 38 |
| XAGUSD | 5,000 troy ounces | 3.8; unit requires confirmation | 200Source 38 |
These metals rows specify 0.01–20 lots and 20% forced close-out. The column headed maximum leverage gives ranges for some symbols, without a complete equity-tier schedule. The gold spread number is therefore preserved without converting it into an unsupported dollar-per-ounce charge.[38]
WTI and the energy-table futures entries
| Symbol | Exact published description | Lot size | Lowest spread / leverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| XTIUSD | US Texas Crude Oil Spot | 1,000 barrels | 4; maximum 1:100Source 39 |
| USOil. | US Texas Crude Oil Futures | 1,000 barrels | 5; maximum 1:100Source 39 |
| DXUSD. | US Dollar Index Futures | 1,000 USD contract | 4; maximum 1:50–1:100Source 39 |
XTIUSD is the spot WTI exposure; USOil. is a distinct futures-based symbol. The current table gives 0.01–20 lots and a 20% close-out field, but its spread unit and current futures expiry/roll dates are not complete. The dated contract must be checked before carrying a position through rollover.[39]
Index and share contract examples
| Exposure | Quantity and size | Leverage / qualification |
|---|---|---|
| US30; US100; US500 | 10, 20 and 50 index units per lot respectively; 0.01–20 lots | Maximum 1:100; 20% forced close-out in CSVSource 40 |
| Other index rows | CN50, HK50, AUS200, EU50, UK100 and JP225; legacy DAX30 label remains | Ten rows overall; retain the actual platform symbol instead of assuming a renamed contractSource 40 |
| Share CFDs, including #AAPL and #AMZN | One share per lot; minimum 1, maximum 500 | Maximum 1:10, 20% close-out; spread entries N/ASource 41 |
| Share schedule breadth | 176 published stock rows | The session table mixes GMT+3 trading and GMT+2 rest headings; confirm current server hoursSource 41 |
The services document lists broader derivative and ancillary permissions, including execution, safekeeping and credit related to transactions. It does not establish a currently available exchange-options account, cash-share custody service or consumer lending product. The practical retail catalogue should follow the enabled CFD instruments.[58]
Trading interfaces and automation
| Interface | Available function | Practical restriction |
|---|---|---|
| MT4 / MT5 | Both named in account help; current download hub focuses on MT5 | Use the actual server and platform enabled for the accountSource 5 |
| MT5 devices / browser | Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and a linked WebTerminal | Installation and live trading were not testedSource 42 |
| FIX API | Current MT5 page advertises professional FIX connectivity | Minimum balance, connection fees, session limits and onboarding criteria were not published thereSource 42 |
| Expert Advisors | Mobile help says EAs run on desktop terminals, not the mobile terminal itself | A phone app is not a continuously running EA hostSource 29 |
| Logging out | Positions remain open after terminal logout; server-side stop-out can still operate | An EA/script needs a running environment; VPS can provide it, but free hosting was not establishedSource 28 |
Spreads, financing & other charges
Sections ↑Trading-cost components
| Component | Published treatment | What remains account-specific |
|---|---|---|
| STP spread | Use the pair-specific lowest spreads above | A minimum is not a guaranteed or average all-in costSource 37 |
| ECN pricing | Qualified article mentions spreads from 0.6 pip and no commission | Obtain binding pair pricing and any current raw-spread commission tariffSource 6 |
| Legacy raw-spread clause | Linked product PDF allows flat commission on opening and closing raw-spread trades | No numeric raw-account commission is supplied there; it does not replace the specific STP no-commission statementSource 52 |
| Profit/loss conversion | Product PDF converts non-account-currency results into the account currency | A current fixed conversion markup was not recoveredSource 52 |
Overnight and corporate-action adjustments
| Charge / credit | Documented method | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Ordinary swaps | Direction-specific overnight debit or credit; rates are checked in the terminal | Interest can change and must be read for the actual symbol and trade dateSource 14 |
| Weekend financing | Help describes Wednesday triple rollover for most FX/metals and ordinary daily energy charging | Holidays and individual instruments can change the number of financing daysSource 14 |
| Futures expiry | Linked product terms allow price-difference adjustment and a contract rollover fee | Obtain the actual expiry date, replacement contract and fee before holding through the eventSource 52 |
| Index dividends | Long positions credited, short positions debited; lots × contract size × dividend rate | Adjustment occurs at the relevant index session’s opening; this is a CFD adjustmentSource 16 |
Conditional swap-free treatment
| Feature | Current policy |
|---|---|
| Eligibility | Algorithm assesses trading behaviour; mainly intraday activity with limited overnight holding.Source 15 |
| Account scope | Eligible client accounts except ECN; selected instruments only.Source 15 |
| Excluded markets | Cryptocurrency, oil and stocks excluded from this policy. Their mention does not itself prove every such symbol is live.Source 15 |
| Withdrawal of status | Frequent or prolonged overnight exposure can remove eligibility without notice; criteria and covered instruments can change.Source 15 |
| Unresolved tariff | No complete fixed grace-period or replacement administration-fee table was established. Confirm the effective instrument status before holding overnight.Source 15 |
Agreement §23.8 permits position closure and swap/profit adjustments where fraud, manipulation or swap arbitrage is suspected. Swap-free eligibility is therefore conditional.[50]
Non-trading charges and exceptions
| Trigger | Documented consequence |
|---|---|
| Ordinary funding help | Help says no deposit or withdrawal fees; the specific contract exceptions below qualify that general statement.Source 17 |
| Withdrawal without trading / prolonged inactivity | Agreement §7.5: up to 10% of the withdrawal amount if no trading since the last deposit and/or no trading across all accounts for six consecutive calendar months. Both amount bands have the same maximum.Source 50 |
| AML suspicion | Public disclosure allows a freeze and an administrative compliance fee up to 10% of account funds. This is a separate basis from the withdrawal charge.Source 49 |
| Payment-card conversion | Transactions processed in USD; a non-USD card issuer may apply conversion charges.Source 54 |
Platforms, execution & margin rules
Sections ↑Execution model and order handling
| Issue | Current documented position |
|---|---|
| Contracting counterparty | The Mauritius execution policy makes KCM principal and sole execution venue, even if it hedges through liquidity providers. Positions close with the same company.Source 51 |
| Pricing | Help describes an in-house model using liquidity-provider feeds and says KCM supplies liquidity to unmatched orders. STP/ECN labels do not independently establish pure agency.Source 26 |
| Market orders / depth | Execution policy permits volume-weighted fills and partial execution at different prices when liquidity is insufficient.Source 51 |
| Stops and limits | Stops trigger market orders; limits execute at the limit or better. Pending orders may be modified or cancelled before their trigger is reached.Source 51 |
| Slippage | Better or worse fills can affect market and pending orders, especially in gaps or volatile conditions.Source 27 |
| Large orders | Public disclosure warns orders of four lots or more may use deeper liquidity and give execution priority over price.Source 49 |
Margin figures that need written reconciliation
Published thresholds — do not combine into one promise
| Source / scope | Current statement | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Dedicated margin help, August 2026 | Standard 20%; ECN 20% stop-out | Dedicated guidance for both listed account typesSource 12 |
| Qualified ECN account example | 50% stop-out | Inconsistent with the dedicated helpSource 6 |
| October agreement §7.6 | References MT4 stop-out of 50% | Confirm the signed account ruleSource 50 |
| Still-linked product PDF | 100% margin call; 50% MT4 stop-out; default 1:100 with appropriateness-based increase to 1:400 | Older policy differs from current product-page and CSV leverageSource 52 |
| Current contract-specific maxima | FX/metals may show up to 1:1,000; oil/indices 1:100; stocks 1:10 | A group-level 1:1,000 headline does not apply to every assetSource 37Source 38Source 39Source 40Source 41 |
The published thresholds cannot all be treated as the same account rule. Obtain the current call level, liquidation trigger, closure sequence and equity-tier schedule for the assigned server before funding. A stop-out threshold describes when liquidation may begin; it does not guarantee the execution price.[12]
Outages, sessions and order availability
| Scenario | Documented rule or unresolved instruction |
|---|---|
| Order channel | Agreement §11.2 accepts instructions only through the Client Terminal.Source 50 |
| Platform failure | Execution policy permits non-execution or price changes following technical failure; no guaranteed execution is established.Source 51 |
| Backup access | The official MT5 hub links a browser terminal. No verified telephone-dealing authorisation or emergency order procedure was recovered.Source 42 |
| Server update notice | A July 2026 page confirms an MT5 update topic but gives no usable old/new server mapping in its retrievable content. Confirm current credentials directly.Source 31 |
| Session interruption | The older product PDF contains inconsistent wording about session-break actions; current instrument trading hours and platform status must be checked.Source 52 |
Deposits, withdrawals & account balances
Sections ↑Payment routes
| Method | What is publicly described | What to check in CRM |
|---|---|---|
| Local bank / electronic payment | Region-dependent mobile banking and electronic payment services | Actual bank, supported currency and available countrySource 18 |
| Visa / Mastercard / JCB | Cards, with 3-D Secure where supported | Country eligibility and issuer costsSource 18 |
| USDT | QR-code / wallet payment workflow | Supported network, address, confirmations and conversion rateSource 18 |
| Bank cashier route | Instruction/PDF workflow described in help | Beneficiary name and reference from the actual payment instructionSource 18 |
Published UnionPay example
| Attribute | Value / qualification |
|---|---|
| Deposit minimum / maximum | USD 420 / USD 6,800Source 25 |
| Withdrawal minimum / maximum | USD 100 / USD 1,000,000Source 25 |
| Published processing | Deposit average up to 30 minutes; withdrawal average up to 24 hoursSource 25 |
| Method fee | Help lists free processing; contractual non-trading and compliance exceptions still require checkingSource 25 |
| Account minimum differs | A method minimum does not replace the USD 1,000 STP initial-funding conditionSource 4 |
Timing and source-of-funds conditions
| Issue | Published rule | Practical consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Instant processing | Means initiation within seconds; payment-provider completion can take longer | Do not treat it as a universal bank-receipt guaranteeSource 19 |
| Out of hours | Deposits/withdrawals available 24/7; non-instant requests targeted within 24 hours | Manual verification can delay weekend or holiday requestsSource 22 |
| Third-party deposits | Only the customer’s own payment method accepted | Name must match the verified trading profileSource 20 |
| Multiple cards | Deposits are tracked separately and withdrawals allocated proportionally | Keep records of each source; the newer card terms qualify how profits can be paidSource 21 |
| Open positions | Withdrawals limited by free margin and outstanding exposure | Withdrawing funds can reduce the protection against stop-outSource 23 |
| Balance / equity | Balance excludes open-position P/L; equity includes it; free margin deducts used margin | Cash shown as balance may not be fully available for withdrawalSource 24 |
Current card terms and payment disputes
| Term | October 2026 linked policy |
|---|---|
| Return of deposits | Refund/withdrawal to the original payment source up to the deposited amount.Source 54 |
| Profits / excess | Amounts above cumulative card deposits may use another approved method in the same client’s name.Source 54 |
| Chargeback process | Policy asks customers to contact support first. A chargeback can trigger position closure without notice, withdrawal/deposit restrictions, account termination and reimbursement of costs.Source 54 |
| Card security claims | Policy describes encryption, PCI DSS controls, applicable 3-D Secure and no retained CVV/CVC. These controls were not independently audited.Source 54 |
Cash, credit and reward benefits
| Category | Documented treatment | Remaining question |
|---|---|---|
| Trading cash | Available withdrawal depends on free margin and liabilities | Unrealised profit and cash balance are not equivalent to an unconditional withdrawal entitlementSource 24 |
| Promotional credit | Agreement §27 allows benefit removal; resulting margin reduction may trigger stop-out, with resulting liability disclaimed | No complete current scheme withdrawal, turnover or expiry terms recoveredSource 50 |
| Merchandise redemption | Thailand page’s banner ended 30 April 2026; rewards were points for merchandise/travel | Expired USD 20 qualifying deposit is not a current general account minimum or cash bonusSource 46 |
Inactivity, dormancy and reactivation
| Published test | Effect / distinction |
|---|---|
| MT4 help: 180 days without trading | Real account archived; restoration by email to customer service.Source 13 |
| Public disclosure: more than 180 days without login AND aggregate balance below USD 10,000 equivalent | Dormant account cannot trade; statements stop. Reactivation requires an instruction form and regional documents sent to support.Source 49 |
| Agreement: six-month inactivity formulations | Separately defines dormant/inactive accounts by trading or transaction inactivity.Source 50 |
| Fee versus access | Help’s archive rule does not establish a monthly inactivity charge; the conditional withdrawal fee is separately described above.Source 13 |
Client protection & insurance scope
Sections ↑Protection mechanisms and their limits
| Mechanism | Evidence | Practical scope |
|---|---|---|
| Client money separation | Company describes segregated money at major banks and annual BDO audits | No bank reconciliation, audit opinion or current client-money balance was independently inspectedSource 1 |
| Loss beyond equity | October agreement §8.5 requires the excess over equity to be paid within two business days | Unconditional negative-balance protection cannot be inferredSource 50 |
| Counterparty / insolvency risk | Risk disclosure discusses the company and third-party failure exposure | Segregation is not a guarantee of immediate full recoverySource 59 |
| Australian routing | Australian residents are directed to the separate KCM Trade Plus operation | Its protections and account conditions cannot be imported into the Mauritius profileSource 1 |
Professional-indemnity announcement
| Field | What the company actually establishes |
|---|---|
| Announced limit / effective date | USD 1 million professional-indemnity coverage, effective 1 July 2026; announcement dated 18 May.Source 47 |
| Purpose | Company presents it as additional risk-control protection within its regulated framework. It is not a promise to reimburse trading losses.Source 47 |
| Limit scope | Per-client, per-claim and aggregate allocation are not stated in the retrieved announcement.Source 47 |
| Policy evidence still needed | Named insurer, insured entities, policy wording, exclusions, deductible, period and claim route. Do not read USD 1m as each client’s guaranteed compensation.Source 47 |
No current statutory compensation-fund entitlement for this Mauritius account was established from the inspected material. The named regulator, the broker’s insurance claim and an individual’s enforceable recovery rights are separate questions. The signed entity and applicable claim terms determine the available route.[1]
Conflicts and information controls
| Area | Published treatment |
|---|---|
| Conflict policy | Identifies risks from company, employee and connected-party interests; describes organisational separation, oversight and disclosure where controls are insufficient.Source 57 |
| Residual conflicts | The policy does not eliminate the commercial conflict created when the company is the client’s CFD counterparty. Ask for the relevant disclosure where a specific conflict affects service.Source 57 |
| Privacy | Linked policy retains a 2020.03.V1 footer. It describes collection/disclosure and tells clients to report changed personal details to support. Current retention and recipient details need confirmation.Source 56 |
Opening, support & trade complaints
Sections ↑Opening and verification requirements
| Stage | Published requirements |
|---|---|
| Identity | Age at least 18; government-issued photo identification with at least one month remaining, full name/date of birth, all four edges and both sides if relevant.Source 8 |
| Address | Name and address matching the account; document issued within six months. Examples include utility bill, bank statement or local tax bill.Source 8 |
| Activation | Verified email/phone, personal and economic profile, accepted identity/address documents and the account’s deposit requirement.Source 9 |
| ECN additional review | Help requires proof of wealth for the ECN account. This account label alone is not proof of legal professional-client classification.Source 9 |
| Ongoing review | AML policy permits risk-based checks of occupation, income, wealth, payment origin and unusual transactions. Further evidence may be requested.Source 55 |
| Two-factor login | CRM Profile → Two-factor authentication supports a time-based one-time-password authenticator.Source 11 |
Official service channels
The Signal Centre page targets replies within 24 hours on business days. This is a service target, not a verified response test or a guarantee of round-the-clock dealing assistance. Published site languages also do not establish staffed support in each language at every hour.[43]
Complaint procedure
| Step | Current linked procedure |
|---|---|
| Submission | Write to [email protected] in English or Chinese; include name, account, affected trade numbers, time/date and issue. Screenshots can help.Source 53 |
| Acknowledgment | Within three business days, with handler and complaint reference.Source 53 |
| Initial response / escalation | Initial response within ten business days; delays explained. At two months, give reasons and an estimated resolution time.Source 53 |
| Target and follow-up | Endeavour to resolve within three months; customer has five weeks to respond to the final answer before the case is treated as resolved.Source 53 |
| External route | Procedure refers to a Financial Ombudsman, without a complete named-body jurisdiction or current filing route in the inspected text. Obtain the applicable referral details.Source 53 |
Agreement §§25.7–25.8: a disputed position cannot be managed during review; KCM need not notify its reopening after resolution, and the client bears that position risk.[50]
KCM’s settings guide says support does not ask for the trading password; ownership checks use a support PIN. Retain the account/server, trade identifier and exact event time when reporting an access or execution problem. A complaint is not itself an instruction to close an open position.[10]
Copy trading, research & additional services
Sections ↑KCMTrade Copy — Pelican migration and control
| Question | Published answer |
|---|---|
| Service migration | Pelican replaces Brokeree; performance history transfers once the Master account is set up. This is a service migration, not evidence of a contracting-entity transfer.Source 44 |
| Registration | Separate app registration and email verification; link the trading account. One MT account is Master or Copier, not both.Source 44 |
| Following / settings | Multiple Masters may be followed; settings changes apply to new positions only.Source 44 |
| Password change | Changing the MT password disconnects copying until credentials are updated in the app.Source 44 |
| Fees | Master sets profit-sharing terms; settlement is processed daily at 00:00–01:00 London time.Source 44 |
| Stopping / exposure | Copying can be stopped, but full handling of existing positions and attached orders after disconnect is not specified. Check these explicitly; disconnection does not establish that the account is flat.Source 44 |
Separate MetaTrader Signals service
| Term | KCM’s published guide |
|---|---|
| Account / charging model | Requires an MQL5 account; a provider charges a fixed monthly subscription. This differs from KCM Copy’s profit-share model.Source 30 |
| Cancellation responsibility | Subscription payment is frozen initially. Subscriber cancellation pays the provider immediately; provider cancellation returns payment to the subscriber.Source 30 |
| Exit and hosting | Unsubscribe through My Statistics/My Subscriptions. Guide mentions an additional USD 15 VPS charge in its mobile workflow; confirm current vendor fee and existing-position treatment.Source 30 |
Research and decision-support tools
| Service | Verified described function | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| AI Mentor | Analyses trading history and economic data; provides account feedback and reports through customer access | Generated insights are reference material; no guaranteed result or automatic trading capability establishedSource 45 |
| Signal Centre | Analyst/AI trade concepts with direction, entry, targets and stops; filters for assets, conviction and language | A research level is not an executed order or guaranteed fillSource 43 |
| Calendar integration | Signal Centre and economic calendar plugin for MetaTrader | Confirm installation, compatibility and whether subscriptions or account eligibility applySource 43 |
| Introducing-broker route | Official site links a partnership programme | Current commission grid, client allocation, payment threshold and clawback rules require a separate agreementSource 2 |
| Corporate / institutional service | Company history describes institutional liquidity origins | A current corporate-account tariff, custody agreement or managed-portfolio service was not established by that historySource 2 |
Company, brand history & geographical scope
Sections ↑Identity and evolution
| Event / scope | Established information |
|---|---|
| Origins | Company history dates institutional business to 2016 and retail expansion to 2019.Source 2 |
| Brand change | Kohle Capital Markets announced the KCM Trade name on 17 April 2023, effective immediately. The announcement alone does not prove client-contract novation.Source 48 |
| Group structure | Current site names KCM Group Holdings Limited as parent. Offices and sponsorship locations do not establish local financial-services authorisation.Source 2 |
| Residence exclusions | Global site lists USA, Canada, Japan, North Korea, Iran, Syria and Sudan among excluded jurisdictions; list is non-exhaustive.Source 3 |
The current company name, accepted client agreement and receiving payment beneficiary should agree. Australian residents are directed to a separately contracted site; brand familiarity or shared tools do not establish identical client classification, leverage, complaint rights or money protections across those routes.[1]

Additional evidence, conflicts & practical checks
Sections ↑Items to obtain before relying on the offer
| Priority | Exact unresolved item |
|---|---|
| Account and cost quotation | Binding ECN deposit, current commission basis and typical-spread evidence; the public ECN article is a qualified illustration.Source 4 |
| Current instrument schedule | Reconcile product CSVs with the older PDF: close-out levels, leverage, session breaks, oil expiry/rollover fees and non-FX spread units.Source 59 |
| Credit and copied exposure | Accepted bonus conditions and the copy provider’s treatment of existing positions, pending orders, fees and termination.Source 46 |
| Insurance and recourse | Complete policy and claim-route information; the public USD 1m announcement alone does not establish an individual entitlement.Source 47 |
| Terms and communications | Website terms can change and warn that ordinary email is not fully secure; retain the agreement and relevant account schedule.Source 60 |
Research checked the current public pages, their linked contract documents and downloadable product schedules on 11 October 2026. No account was funded, no spread was sampled, and no trade, withdrawal or support response was tested. Current contractual conflicts are material evidence limits, not price observations.[60]
October 2026 account and disclosure cross-check
Sections ↑The following supplementary details were checked against the broker’s published account or group disclosures for the 22 October 2026 research edition. They should be interpreted within the legal-entity, country and account qualifications explained above.[61][62][63]
22 October research — supplementary checkpoints
| Research area | Dated finding or qualification |
|---|---|
| Account, price or operational terms | The current STP page states a $1,000 minimum, no commission, 200+ instruments, a 20-lot per-trade maximum and 50% stop-out.Source 61Source 62 |
| Regulation, protection or further conditions | KCM says MT4 service will end after market close on 30 October 2026, making MT5 migration a near-term account-management requirement.Source 63 |
