Exness official explanation pageFAQ
What happens to positions I already hold during a restriction?
Open positions are not force-closed (except individual stocks). Only the margin required for new orders is affected.
What actually happens during a restriction?
The margin required for new orders increases. Even if your account leverage setting is higher, the restricted cap takes priority during that window.
Why does the restriction differ by instrument?
Exness sets these per instrument around moments prone to sharp moves, such as news releases, weekends, and market breaks.
