    Frequently Asked Questions

    ZFX is an online forex and CFD broker. You can trade currency pairs, indices, commodities, precious metals, energies, and selected share CFDs, subject to your region and account. It offers live and demo accounts, market updates, and risk controls on desktop, web, and mobile platforms. Product lists, contract specs, and margin rules differ by entity. Review the legal documents, terms, and disclosures for your location before you open an account. This is general information only.

    Open an account by completing an online form, choosing an account type and base currency, and passing identity and address checks. Upload clear photos of your documents. Set strong passwords and security questions. After approval, you receive platform credentials. You can fund via bank transfer, card, or approved e‐wallets, depending on your region. Start with a demo if you want to practice. Timeframes and funding limits vary. Use multi‐factor authentication where available.

    Your trading cost can include variable spreads and, on some accounts, a commission on orders. Overnight financing may apply when positions remain open across sessions. You may see currency conversion charges if your account and instrument currencies differ. Non‐trading costs can include payment processing fees from providers and possible inactivity charges. Costs depend on the account, instrument, and your region. Always read the fee schedule, product disclosures, and terms before you trade. This is not advice.

    You can deposit and withdraw using bank transfer, payment cards, and selected e‐wallets, subject to regional availability. The broker may require you to use the same method and name for withdrawals as used for funding. Processing times vary by method and can be affected by bank cut‐offs and holidays. Third‐party fees can apply. Extra verification may be needed before funds are released. Keep your details current and check status in your secure portal.

    You get desktop, web, and mobile platforms with charting, technical indicators, watchlists, and common order types such as market, limit, and stop. You can set price alerts and use risk controls like stop loss and take profit. Some platforms support quick trade buttons. Features and add‐ons depend on your account and region. Test tools in a demo so you understand order behavior, slippage, trading hours, and margin rules before using real funds. Stability depends on your device and connection.

    The entity that serves you and the rules that apply depend on your region. Review the account opening documents to confirm the legal entity, authorizations, and complaint process. Brokers commonly hold client money in segregated accounts under local rules; ask support to confirm how your funds are held and what protections apply, including margin close‐out and dispute handling.
