Forex products

Saxo Bank supports trading of 150+ currency crosses, more than any other online trading provider, and supports a full range of Forex products:

• Spot Forex
• Trade orders (market, limit, stop, stop if bid/asked). Conditional (linked) orders are also available
• Over-the-Counter (OTC) options
• Forward outrights

Immediate execution

Spot Forex and orders below our autoexecution limit can be executed immediately on the price quoted. We maintain a strict, dependable what-you-see is what-you-get principle when you click to buy or sell.

Forex spreads and margins

Trade Forex on margin to gear your investments for greater market effect. Our margin requirements are some of the lowest available — an investment of only $25,000 can be used to command a position of up to $2.5 Million in the market.

Our volume trading spreads for partners are the amongst the most competitive in the business and there are no additional commissions.

Forex OTC Options

Our European-style Forex options are traded online through our trading platform. Our options are popular for setting up hedging strategies for other Forex positions, or to express views in their own right. Exotic options are available on request.

Forward Outrights

Our Forex forward outrights are used extensively for hedging risks from foreign exchange exposure. By purchasing a currency (against another currency) for a future date at a fixed price using a forward outright trade, risky exposure to unpredictable foreign exchange fluctuations can be reduced.

Stocks and CFDs

Contract for Difference (CFD) stock derivatives are available from 24 exchanges, and stocks from 22 of the world's major exchanges.

Physical stocks trades are directly executed on the relevant exchange and CFDs can be traded either directly on the live price or by order. Stock and CFD trading is fully integrated into our combined trading platform along with our other products. CFD prices are live tradable prices, and live stock prices for a number of exchanges are available on request.

Index CFDs are also available, allowing you to buy CFDs that reflect the performance of major stock market indices, including NASDAQ 100, S&P 500, Dow Jones, FTSE 100, DAX 30, CAC 40, OMX, ASX S&P 200, SMI.

CFD spreads and margins

CFDs are margined stock derivative products allowing you to leverage your investment for greater market effect. CFDs are ideal for intra-day stock trading, allowing you to magnify the advantage of smaller market swings.

Saxo Bank margin requirements for CFDs are some of the lowest available and an investment of only $10,000 can be used to open a market position of up to $100,000.
