Fixed risk accounts
The CMC Markets Fixed Risk CFD Account is ideal for investors who want to take advantage of the tax, leverage, and short-selling benefits of CFDs without the unlimited potential downside.
Account overview
The two key advantages of the fixed risk account are that your account cannot be overdrawn and that stop orders you place will benefit from our unique 'no-slip' guarantee, protecting you from unforeseen market slippage.
Unique 'no-slip' guarantee on all stop orders
CMC Markets guarantees that the stop orders placed on a fixed risk account will be protected from market slippage. This means that even if the market moves above or below your chosen level, we will close your position at the level you specified. It provides a powerful tool to limit the risk usually associate with trading orders and gives you better control over your trading.
Range of markets
With our fixed risk account you will be able to trade a wide range of international markets including the top constituent shares of the key UK, US, German and Canadian Indices. You will also have access to trade all major indices and spot FX currency pairs available to our standard account holders with margin requirements as low as 2%.
