- Minimum deposit
- The lowest published first deposit is USD 10, but the official range is USD 10 to USD 10,000 depending on country and regulation. Corporate accounts and individual products have separate minimums; the onboarding screen is authoritative.
- Spreads and commissions
- CFD spreads and overnight charges vary by instrument and are shown before order confirmation. Stock trades can carry USD 1 or USD 2 opening and closing commissions in selected countries and exchanges; ETF trading has no eToro commission. Crypto pricing and fees vary by client tier and product.
- Execution
- Execution depends on the product and entity. For over-the-counter products, eToro or an affiliate can be the counterparty and the order may execute outside a regulated market. Best-execution policies assess price, costs, speed, likelihood and total consideration; quoted prices can differ from exchange prices.
- Maximum leverage
- The highest verified leverage eToro can provide across all regions is 1:400 on foreign exchange for approved Professional Clients registered under eToro UK or eToro Europe. It is not generally available: retail, entity, residence, instrument and suitability limits apply, and professional clients give up protections including negative-balance protection and compensation eligibility.
- Stop-out
- No single group-wide stop-out percentage was publicly verified. Current terms state that eToro calculates margin per position and may close a leveraged position without notice when required margin or its position stop level is not maintained. The platform specification for the actual trade controls.
Investments can fall in value, and CFDs are leveraged products that can cause rapid losses. The displayed 1:400 figure is a maximum verified professional-client capability, not a recommendation or universal entitlement. Professional clients lack negative-balance protection and can lose more than deposited.
