Dear traders!

We'd like to inform you that due to a short selling restriction put in place by French regulators, our France 40 Equity Index CFD has changed. On the MT4 platform it is set to closing positions only and on the MT5 platform it is now set to long positions only, meaning you can close positions and open buy positions, until further notice.

Please consider these changes when planning your trading activities and ensure you have enough funds in your account to maintain your positions.

Furthermore, due to the impact COVID-19 has had on the availability of physical gold in the market, this has reduced liquidity. With our wide range of liquidity providers we are currently able to price gold, although the spread may widen.

In these turbulent times, the situation changes quickly, so please ensure you're following us on Twitter to receive all the latest updates.

Kind regards, The FXOpen UK Team
