Dividend Adjustments



Automated dividend adjustments for CFDs
What Are Dividends?
A dividend is a portion of a company's profits distributed to its shareholders. It is a way for companies to share their financial success with the owners of the stock.
For traders holding CFD positions, this corporate action affects the underlying asset's price. The market price of a stock or index typically drops by approximately the dividend amount on the ex-dividend date. Our dividend adjustment mechanism exists to fairly account for this price change in your CFD account, ensuring your position value reflects the market.



Understanding
Dividend Adjustments?
When a company in an index or a stock you hold pays a dividend, the value of that asset typically decreases by the dividend amount on the ex-dividend date. To reflect this market mechanism in your CFD positions, we apply a corresponding adjustment to your account.
How Dividend Adjustments Are Calculated
To maintain fair market pricing, dividend adjustments are processed daily. The adjustment is applied
as an aggregated credit or debit to your account for all open positions on a specific instrument at the
end of the trading day before its ex-dividend date.

Long Position (Buy)
If you are holding a long (buy) position, you will receive a credit to your account. Example:
A trader holds 2 buy lots in NASUSD, with a dividend rate of USD 3.55 and a contract size of 10.
Calculation Formula: Dividend Adjustment = Dividend Rate × Contract Size × Lot Size
Dividend Adjustment: 3.55 × 10 × 2 = +USD 71.00
Credit to Account: USD 71.00
This credit offsets the price drop, leaving the trader's overall position value neutral.

Short Position (Sell)
If you are holding a short (sell) position, a debit will be applied to your account. Example:
A trader holds 2 sell lots in NASUSD, with a dividend rate of -USD 3.55 and a contract size of 10.
Dividend Adjustment: (-3.55) × 10 × 2 = -USD 71.00
Debit from Account: USD 71.00
This debit neutralizes the unfair advantage, leaving the trader's overall position value neutral.
