Dividents
How do stock index dividends affect my open trades?
When a company within a stock index pays out a dividend, it impacts the overall value of the index, causing it to drop by a certain amount.
To keep your trading fair and uninterrupted, we apply a dividend adjustment to your account:
If you have a long position (buy), your account is credited.
If you have a short position (sell), your account is debited.
The adjustment reflects the additional running profit or loss caused by the dividend impact.
