Trading Interface and Order Management
Platform Navigation
Access cryptocurrencies through the Market Watch pane by expanding the “Crypto” section. Right-click on pairs to add or remove from your watchlist. Use the Symbol Properties dialog to check contract details like spread, swap charges, and margin requirements.
To open trades, double-click on a crypto pair or click the New Order button (shortcut F9). The order entry window displays live bid/ask prices, volume options, and allows selection of position size. Choose market execution for instant trades or pending orders to specify entry prices.
Order Types and Execution
FxPro supports market, limit, stop, and stop-limit orders for crypto. Market orders execute quickly with typical slippage under 0.2 pips on major pairs. Limit orders guarantee execution at specified prices or better.
Stop-loss orders automatically close losing positions to limit risk. Take-profit orders lock in gains at preset levels. Trailing stops dynamically adjust with market movements to protect profits.
| Order Type | Execution Method | Typical Slippage | Minimum Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Market | Immediate | 0.2 pips | N/A |
| Limit | At price or better | None | 5 pips |
| Stop | Market at trigger | 0.3 pips | 10 pips |
| Stop-Limit | Limit at trigger | None | 15 pips |
Risk Management Tools
Our platform features position sizing calculators to assist traders in determining appropriate lot sizes based on risk preferences and equity. We recommend limiting risk to 1-3% of account balance per trade to maintain sustainable crypto exposure.
Due to cryptocurrencies’ volatility, stop-loss orders are essential. Bitcoin can fluctuate 5-10% daily; therefore, stop-loss settings should be 2-5% from entry for short-term trades and up to 15% for longer holdings.
- Use position correlation data to reduce simultaneous exposure to highly correlated crypto assets.
- Diversify portfolios by including DeFi tokens, blockchain platform coins, and payment cryptos.
- Regularly review margin requirements and free margin to avoid forced liquidations.
- Leverage conservative settings between 1:2 and 1:10 to control risk levels.
- Enable alerts for margin call notifications within the platform.
