Afterprime’s margin and leverage framework is designed to give professional traders the flexibility they need. We offer scalable leverage that respects both capital and risk, aligned with how institutional desks manage exposure.
CFDs are leveraged products, you only need to deposit a fraction of your trade's total value as margin, giving you greater market exposure with less capital.
| Asset Class | Margin | Leverage |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | 1% | 1:100 |
| Metals | 1% | 1:100 |
| Commodities | 1% | 1:100 |
| Indices | 1% | 1:100 |
| Crypto | 33% | 1:3 |
Legacy brokers dangle more than 1000:1 leverage as bait. It creates churn, not sustainability.
The result is predictable: blown accounts that fuel B-book profits. Afterprime rejects that approach. Our structure rewards discipline and longevity—because aligned flow has more value than client attrition.
A margin call alerts you when available margin is running low. If losses continue and your equity hits the stop-out level, open positions will start closing automatically to prevent further losses.
| Asset Class | Margin Call | Stop Out Level |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | 120% | 80% |
| Metals | 120% | 80% |
| Commodities | 120% | 80% |
| Indices | 120% | 80% |
| Crypto | 120% | 80% |

Leverage is a tool, not a marketing hook. Afterprime’s framework reflects that discipline, margin requirements are fair, leverage is scalable, and the focus is on survival first.”

Execution you can measure. Rewards shared with you.
Margin is the capital you need to deposit to open and maintain leveraged positions.
Leverage depends on the asset class — more volatile assets often have lower maximum leverage.
Yes, but rarely. During high volatility or market events, margin requirements may increase to manage risk. We will always notify you in advance before a change is made.
If your equity drops below maintenance margin, your position may be liquidated to prevent further loss.
Yes. You may choose to use less leverage than the maximum allowed, depending on your risk preference.
Yes. Some asset categories carry different margin and leverage caps due to their volatility profiles.
Your trading platform shows real-time margin used, free margin, and liquidation thresholds — so you always know your risk exposure.
