The FXOpen Team
FXOpen is delighted to announce that we have lowered the minimum trade size to 0.01 from 0.1 lot on index CFDs. This means less margin is required to place a trade, and it allows traders to trade index CFDs in a smaller size.
Combined with our recently launched commission free trading on index CFDs, and the increasingly tight spreads offered, we are determined to ensure our clients have the most affordable, convenient and beneficial trading experience possible with FXOpen.
Below you can see the average spreads for some of the most popular global indices:
| Market | Average spread |

| UK 100: | 0.8 pips |
| Germany 40: | 0.8 pips |
| US Tech 100: | 1.1 pips |
| Wall Street 30: | 1.6 pips |
