Dividend Adjustments

Dividends are payments made by companies to shareholders as a distribution of profits. After a share pays dividends, its price typically falls by the same amount.

Indices reflect the weighted average share prices of the underlying companies. When one or more constituent companies pay dividends, the index value decreases by the weighted average value of those dividends.

When trading CFD indices, dividend adjustments are applied to open index positions when dividends are paid in the underlying market. To stay informed about upcoming dividend adjustments, please check the Trading Notices page regularly.

Spreads

CTWO Commodities offers floating spreads on all indices across all account types. The spreads shown in the contract specifications table represent the average spread from the previous trading day.
For live spreads, please refer directly to the trading platform.

Please note that spreads may widen during periods of lower market liquidity, such as rollover times.

Chart Prices

CTWO Commodities offers a variety of trading accounts designed to meet different trading needs and preferences.

  • Accounts with raw pricing include additional commissions.

  • Accounts without commissions have mark-ups incorporated into the prices.

By default, charts in the MetaTrader trading platforms display raw pricing, while the Market Watch window shows pricing corresponding to the trader’s selected account type.

Swaps

A Swap Long is applied when keeping buy positions open overnight, while a Swap Short applies to sell positions. Swaps occur daily at 23:59 server time, excluding weekends, until the position is closed.
Triple swaps are charged on Wednesdays to cover financing costs over the weekend.

Dynamic Leverage

CTWO Commodities provides dynamic leverage on indices for most account types. The leverage values shown in the contract specifications table represent the maximum leverage available for each instrument.
This maximum leverage adjusts automatically based on your net open positions. For full details, please refer to the Dynamic Leverage page.

Fixed Leverage

CTWO Commodities offers fixed leverage for selected account types. In such cases, the maximum leverage shown in the contract specifications table remains constant regardless of your net open positions.
Fixed leverage applies primarily to Cent and Micro account types.

Higher Margin Requirements (HMR)

To manage risk during periods of potential high volatility, CTWO Commodities applies higher margin requirements to protect open positions.

These HMR periods require additional margin to open new orders but do not affect the margin of existing positions.

Closing a hedged position during HMR periods may fail if there is insufficient free margin to cover the higher margin applied to the remaining leg of the hedge.

HMR periods include:

  • Economic News Periods: From 15 minutes before major news releases until 10 minutes after.

  • Weekends & Holidays: From 2 hours before market closing on Friday until 1 hour after market opening on Monday. The same rule applies during trading holidays.

Stop Level

The stop level represents the minimum distance (in pips) between the current market price and a pending order price.
Stop level values listed in the contract specifications table are subject to change and may not be available for traders using certain high-frequency strategies or Expert Advisors.
