Leverage Change Notice : the US Presidential Election

07 Nov 2016

Dear Client / Trader,

As noted in our previous email, with the upcoming US Presidential Election, we anticipate higher uncertainties in the global financial markets. The US Presidential Election is to be held on Tuesday, 8th November 2016. Immediately before and after the election the global financial markets will likely experience higher volatility with ​wider spreads and periods of reduced liquidity. To protect the best interest of our clients, we would like to inform you that we will increase the margin requirements on all clients' live account(s) temporarily setting the leverage ratio to 100:1 (margin requirements to 1%) from midnight (GMT-5) ​7th November 2016. Please note that the required margin can further increase depending on the market situations.

This will add additional margin requirements to maintain your open or existing position(s) and will also affect new trades. So, please note that you should take appropriate measures to mitigate your trading risk as it is designed to protect you from higher risk arising from higher volatility.

In addition, please keep in mind that under certain circumstances Land​ Prime​ ​has the right to control or close your open position(s) to meet the minimum margin requirements.

These temporary risk parameters may persist over the weekend depending on the market reaction to the election results.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know.

Best Regards,
Land Prime Account Team.

As you may know, UK's EU referendum is being held on Thursday, 23 June to decide whether Britain should leave or remain in the European Union and we call it 'Brexit' that is a shorthand of saying the UK leaving the EU - Brexit: merging the words Britain and exit, as it was referred to Grexit for Greece Exit. In the above situation the global financial markets will likely be high volatile creating wider spreads and periods of reduced liquidity with a big gap risk. As Land Prime has the duty to protect against our clients’ interest, we would like to inform you that we will increase the required margin of all clients' live account(s) during some specific times hereby the leverage will be set to 50:1 meaning the margin requirement to 2% from 00:00 15th June 2016(server time, GMT-5). This will add additional margin requirements to maintain your opened or existing position(s) and will also affect both new and opened one(s) so, please be noted that you should take appropriate measures and these measures are to decrease your trading risk and protect you from this rare event that has high volatility. In addition please keep in mind that under certain circumstances Land Prime has the right to control or close your open position(s) if there is not enough margin in clients' account(s). These temporary risk parameters may persist over the weekend of 25th and 26th of June depending on the market reaction to the referendum result, and we hope it helps you mitigate the risks. If you have any further questions or concerns, please let us know. Best Regards, Land Prime Account Team.   01 Jul 2016 Notice of Leverage change 01 July 2016 Dear Client / Trader, We would like to inform you that as a result of the UK decision to leave the EU and the market situation, the leverage will be changed to the original one on 4th July.
