• The Company reserves the right to change the leverage on clients’ trading accounts (both increases and decreases) without prior notice, in accordance with the conditions specified on the website www.iux.com.
• Automatic leverage changes, whether initiated by the Company’s rules or by clients through their personal area, will result in a recalculation of margin requirements for all open positions.
