Execution control

Enter and exit trades in a flash with our cutting-edge technology. There are multiple order types available, so you can control exactly when and how your trades are executed. For example, our 1-Click Trading feature allows you to place a trade almost instantly, while for enhanced order management you can set boundaries to control any potential slippage in the market.

Order execution options

Risk management

We've developed an extensive range of risk management features to help you manage trading risk effectively, helping to secure potential profits and minimise losses. If you want 100% certainty that a trade will close at an exact price if it moves against you, we offer guaranteed stop-loss orders (GSLOs) for a premium. This premium is refunded in full if the GSLO is not triggered.

Security of funds

We hold retail client finds in segregated bank accounts, which meets the requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Regulations (2014) ('Regulations'). All retail client money is held in segregated client bank accounts. CMC Markets only uses its own funds for hedging. CMC Markets NZ Limited is regulated by the Financial Markets Authority ('FMA') for the provision of derivative products, FSP41187.

Protection of funds

Licensed and regulated

CMC Markets is authorised and regulated by the FMA. As a result we are required to comply with the Regulations. CMC Markets meets the requirements of the Regulations and clearly distinguishes retail client money from its own by holding retail client funds in segregated client bank accounts, entirely separate from CMC Markets’ own money.
