The Individual Equities Trading Conditions display the ‘Spread Over Market’ for Individual Equity Instruments unless otherwise stated. The ‘Spread Over Market’ is the Mark-up AVATRADE adds to the Current Market Spread.

Spread Cost Formula: Spread x Trade Size = Spread Charge in Currency Instrument is denominated in.

Example

For a trade of 1 APPLE share, with a Spread of 12 pips (0.12), the calculation is as follows:

0.12 X 1 = $0.12*

AvaTrade is compensated through the Bid-Ask spread, except when otherwise stated.

AvaTrade does not charge commissions on any trade.

All Instruments are traded on Margin allowing you to Leverage your positions. The Individual Equities Trading Conditions display Margin Amounts as a Percentage (%).

Percentage Margin Formula: Position Size x Current Price x Margin (%) = Margin Required*

*Margin Required is calculated in the Currency the Instrument is Denominated in.

AVA may double margin requirements on specific stocks prior to earnings release. This is a preventative measure to avoid clients with large exposures in the said equity, falling into negative equity.

Example 1

For a trade of 1 APPLE share with a Market Price of $500 and a Margin Requirement of 5.00%, the calculation is as follows:

Percentage Margin Requirement: 1 x 500 x 0.05 = $25.00*

The Individual Equities Trading Conditions display the Over-Night Interest Rates Charged/Paid on a daily basis for holding a position open past the End of Day time. These are displayed in the “Overnight Interest – Buy” and “Overnight Interest – Sell” columns. End of Day is 22:00 GMT except during Daylight Savings when it changes to 21:00 GMT.

You can use the following formula to calculate your Overnight Interest amount:

Trade Size x End of Day Market Price x Daily Overnight Interest = Daily Overnight Interest Charged/Paid*

* Overnight Interest Charged/Paid is calculated in the Currency the Instrument is Denominated in.

Example 2

For a trade of 1 APPLE share, with an End of Day Market Price of $140 and a Daily Overnight Interest Buy (or Sell) rate of -0.0083%, and subject to a charge for 1 day, the calculation is as follows:

1 x 140 x -0.000083 = -0.012 = -$0.01* rounded.

Note: Ava Trade platforms display overnight interest (swaps) in annualised terms.

Individual Equities may at some stage partake in a Corporate Action; these can include Dividends, Rights Issues, Stock/Reverse Splits, Mergers, Acquisitions, Takeovers etc.

Dividends: For any individual equity on the AVATRADE trading platforms that declares a dividend, AVATRADE will make an Adjustment to every account that holds said equity, at the end of the cum-dividend day. This will be one day before the ex-dividend day.

The adjustment made to accounts will be:

1. Long Positions will be Credited with 100% of the Gross dividend.

(Amount of Shares x Gross Dividend) x 1.00

2. Short Positions will be Debited with 100% of the Gross dividend.

(Amount of Shares x Gross Dividend) x -1

Note: There are no other costs to clients in relation to Dividends.

Example 3

For a trade of 1 APPLE share, with a GROSS Div. of $1.00, the calculation is as follows:

Long Position: (1 x 1.00) x 1.00 = 1.00 x 1.00 = +$1.00

Short Position: (1 x 1.00) x -1 = 1.00 x -1 = -$1.00

For ALL other Corporate Actions: Rights Issue, Stock/Reverse Splits, Mergers, Acquisitions, Takeovers etc, and as these actions can happen suddenly and without prior knowledge.

Note: There are no costs to clients in relation to these other Corporate Actions.
