Scope Markets: account choices, fractional CFDs, leverage tiers and managed trading services

A detailed reference to Scope’s international account structure, product access, platform services, copy/PAMM/MAM mechanics, holding costs and payment conditions.

By Editorial deskOperating status: ActiveSources checked Published Updated
Profile scope

Account and fee tables describe RS Global’s international offer. Group entities are identified separately; residence restrictions and account/platform discrepancies are material.

  • Scope Invest’s fractional-stock positions are expressly executed as CFDs.
  • Friday margin reductions can be substantial and differ across product and notional groups.
  • Copying, PAMM allocation and MAM services have distinct controls and fee arrangements.

This profile covers RS Global Ltd’s international retail FX and CFD offer. Other Scope group companies have separate local permissions and agreements.[1][3]

All four cards show 20% stop-out and demo access. Classic, Cent and Pro advertise leverage up to 1:3,000. The Cent card does not define a cent-lot conversion, so its cash denomination cannot establish its contract exposure.[4]
