    2. Account

    2.1. In order to use the services on the MT5 Platform, you must create a separate MT5 account (the “MT5 Account”). The MT5 Account will be used to record USDT transferred by you into the MT5 Account and conduct transactions on the MT5 Platform. The MT5 Account may be registered by any individual who is over eighteen (18) years old or an institution by its duly authorized representatives, provided such individual and institution have read and understand the Risk Disclosure Statements, which is incorporated by reference into, and shall be a part of this Agreement.

    3. Trading using the MT5 Services

    3.1. The MT5 Platform is a marketplace that allows you to trade in CFDs with other Users. The MT5 Platform simply matches purchase and sale orders put forth by Users and assists Users with carrying out their intent as expressed via the orders. Except as expressly specified otherwise in this Agreement, neither the Company nor the Platform is acting as a principal in or as other participants in those transactions. Neither the Company nor the Platform is responsible for any disputes among or between Users regarding any transaction.

     

    3.2. This also means that when you withdraw Digital Assets as the Referenced Asset, you are asking the Bybit Account to convert your Settlements into the Reference Asset.

     

    3.3. Matching of orders are automatically paired by the MT5 Platform through third party liquidity providers, and the MT5 Platform will notify the respective Users that the order has been executed. Once a match is made, the order is executed and cleared instantaneously. YOU SHOULD ONLY PLACE AN ORDER IF YOU FULLY INTEND TO COMPLETE THE TRANSACTION. You have the right to stop a preauthorized order by initiating procedures through your MT5 Account to effectuate closure of such open order.

     

    3.4. You acknowledge that it may not be possible in all circumstances for you to cancel or modify an order, even before the order is matched or executed. We accept no responsibility for ensuring that an order is modified or cancelled, and you understand and agree that, if the order cannot be cancelled or modified, you are bound by any execution of the original order. You further acknowledge that attempts to modify or cancel and replace an order may result in over-execution or the execution of duplicate orders, and you shall be responsible for all such executions.

     

    3.5. You shall be deemed to have given orders through the MT5 Platform when we acknowledge such orders through the MT5 Platform or by such other means as we may determine (whether or not you actually receive or become aware of such acknowledgment). You understand that the MT5 Platform provides the ability to show the real-time status of all of your open orders and pending instructions. You further understand that it is your responsibility to monitor your open orders and pending instructions in real-time until the MT5 Platform acknowledges the full execution, cancellation or rejection of the orders or instructions and that we assume no responsibility or liability if you fail to do so. In the event that you fail to immediately notify us of any error in the real-time acknowledgment of the status of any of your open orders or pending instructions, including the MT5 Platform’s failure to promptly acknowledge the receipt of an order after you transmit such order, we reserve the right to exercise in good faith discretion to require you to accept the trade or to remove the trade from your MT5 Account at your sole benefit or loss. We may, in some cases, and at our sole discretion, require secondary electronic, verbal, written or other confirmation before acting if your MT5 Account activity is outside of its normal range of activities.

     

    3.6. Your orders shall be subject to trading limits that we may establish, revise and communicate to you from time to time.

     

    3.7. Subject to Section 3.14, once an order has been executed, the transaction may not be reversible.

     

    3.8. You acknowledge that, due to technical and other restrictions, the price of the Referenced Assets displayed on the MT5 Platform may be delayed and therefore not reflect the current, live market value of such Referenced Assets. Nonetheless, you agree that the prices displayed on the MT5 Platform control the value of your MT5 Account and your use of the MT5 Platform.

     

    3.9. You acknowledge and agree that we cannot and do not warrant or guarantee that any order placed through the MT5 Platform will be executed at the best posted price.

     

    3.10. You understand, agree, and acknowledge that it is your responsibility to meet the margin requirements and ensure sufficient margins for all the positions in the MT5 Account at all times.

     

    3.11. You understand, agree, and acknowledge that it is your responsibility to deposit additional margin and ensure that the funds in the MT5 Account are sufficient to meet the margin requirements for any open positions at all times, regardless of whether the Company or the MT5 Platform is to communicate with you regarding any outstanding margin obligations.

     

    3.12. You understand, agree, and acknowledge that if you fail to maintain the margin requirements for any open positions, we have the right in our sole discretion but not the obligation to initiate a compulsory stop-out of any or all positions when the MT5 Account balance reaches or falls below the stop-out level. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is strictly under no obligation to close out or liquidate any positions or take any action in respect of any of your positions if you fail to maintain the margin required in relation to your positions.

     

    3.13. You further acknowledge and agree that: 

    1. any losses resulting from the compulsory stop-out or liquidation of any open positions are your responsibility and shall be borne by you; and

    2. we shall not be liable for any losses resulting from the compulsory stop-out or liquidation should we exercise any or all of our rights under this Agreement. 

     

    3.14. Absent mutual consent of parties involved, we reserve the right to cancel or nullify transactions in the event that:

    1. the transaction resulted from an identifiable interruption or malfunction of execution, settlement or communication system;

    2. the transaction that we, in our sole discretion, believe to be fraudulent, manipulative or disruptive to other Users or the MT5 Platform;

    3. the transaction was executed by any MT5 Account that has been hacked by unauthorized users and we determine in good faith that cancellation of the trades shall be in the best interest of Users or the MT5 Platform;

    4. the transactions were executed by arbitrage/exploitation of market failures or off market rates;

    5. a technical problem withheld the transaction from being executed as desired;

    6. a liquidity provider has cancelled or altered the transaction;

    7. the transaction was partially executed with the liquidity provider; or

    8. we believe, in our sole discretion, that your MT5 Account, transactions or trading activities therein violate this Agreement.



    4. Fees

    4.1. There is no charge to download the MT5 App and register as a User, but we may charge for certain in-app purchases and other features as we may specify from time to time.

     

    4.2. In exchange for access to the MT5 Platform and the MT5 Services, you agree to pay a fee on each settled transaction initiated by you (such fee, a “Transaction Fee”). The current Transaction Fee may be found on the Site after you log into your MT5 Account. We reserve the right to change, modify or increase the Transaction Fee at any time and from time to time. Any such changes, modifications or increases will be effective upon posting such changes, modifications or increases on the Site. If you do not agree to the posted changes, modifications, or increases, you should stop using the MT5 Account as provided herein. Your continued use of the MT5 Account following the posting of the modified Transaction Fee as posted on the Site will constitute the acceptance of all such changes or revisions.

     

    4.3. Transaction Fees are paid by the trading parties in any given transaction. The trading parties will each be charged a fee in USDT or other currencies from time to time approved by us.

     

    4.4. If you believe that you have been erroneously charged a Transaction Fee, you shall notify us immediately of such error, along with any additional information concerning the transaction. If you do not raise any question or objection within thirty (30) days after such alleged erroneous Transaction Fee first appears on any MT5 Account statement, such fee will be deemed acceptable by you for all purposes.
