In international investment planning, Hedging is a vital technique used by traders to balance their portfolios during market volatility. For users of Standard, Raw, and Pro accounts, IUX provides full support for hedging strategies under high-security standards.
Full Hedging Permissions
To allow professional traders to manage risk with maximum flexibility, IUX permits hedging for all primary account groups under the following conditions:
Internal Hedging (Same Account): You can open both Buy and Sell positions for the same instrument—using either equal or different lot sizes—within a single trading account (e.g., the same MT5 terminal). This allows you to lock in profits/losses or manage margin effectively.
Cross-Account Hedging: You can utilize two or more trading accounts to open opposite positions to hedge risks according to your unique strategy. Our system fully supports this practice for the mentioned account categories.
Advantages of Hedging Strategies
Implementing a hedging strategy offers several key benefits for capital management:
Margin Management: In many scenarios, hedging helps reduce Used Margin, giving you more freedom to manage your portfolio's liquidity.
Protection During High-Impact News: Hedging helps stabilize your portfolio's equity during periods of extreme price volatility without the need to close existing positions.
Strategic Flexibility: It supports the simultaneous execution of both short-term and long-term trading strategies within the same asset class.
