Due to the high volatility and low liquidity on USD/RUB currency pair there is a risk of significant price gaps, which may cause negative equity on client accounts. Because of that Dukascopy Bank and Dukascopy Europe are forced to implement a maximum leverage for USD/RUB exposures of 1:10 as of 17 December 2014 at 13:00 GMT.
Clients trading USD/RUB are invited to estimate margin usage at the moment the maximum leverage on USD/RUB will be reduced and adjust their exposure accordingly if needed before leverage cut time.
Attention: Beware that independently of the current leverage reduction Dukascopy Bank and Dukascopy Europe may take additional measures including full stop of USD/RUB trading and closure of all opened positions without warning.
