OANDA fxTrade Canadian Margin Requirements
Pair-by-pair margin requirements, by account home currency
The Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) establishes margin rates. Margin requirements vary given the base currency of your account.
Warning: These figures are subject to change when IIROC requirements are updated. To avoid margin closeouts, ensure you have sufficient additional margin in your account at all times to address updated margin requirements. Please note that OANDA offers a maximum leverage of 50:1 for major currency pairs (and 20:1 for minor currency pairs). We also enable our clients to cap their leverage at 40:1, 30:1, 20:1, or 10:1—we recommend 20:1 or lower.
You need sufficient margin (collateral) in your trading accounts to cover any losses you might incur on your positions. See OANDA's margin rules for information on margin, margin closeouts, and how they can affect you.
