Reduction In Minimum Order Size Across All Trading Instruments
In addition to 19 new instruments being listed on PrimeXBT, we are also lowering the minimum order size across all assets listed on the platform. This allows traders using the platform to take positions with much less capital and access markets they otherwise would have previously been unable to.
For example, the minimum order for a Brent oil contract prior to the update was 100 barrels or roughly $8,000. Now, after the change, the minimum positions requirement is just 1 barrel, or roughly $80 USD.
This low barrier to entry provides even more opportunities for profit across many more trading instruments, including the 19 new instruments just added to PrimeXBT.
