[Guide] How XM's trading bonus works — an example

XM calls its bonus a 'trading bonus' and explains that it is added to the account like extra margin. It can be used to open larger positions with the same own capital, or to gain more room before a stop-out when the price moves against you.

XM's example shows two people who each deposit $100 and buy 0.1 lot of gold (GOLD) at 4,500. The one who received a $100 bonus has $200 in equity and keeps the position after a 0.4% drop, while the one without it is stopped out.

• Bonus: not withdrawable, used only as margin
• Effect (per XM): larger position size, lower stop-out risk
• Availability and rates: vary by region

Note · The example is XM's hypothetical and does not guarantee actual results. Leveraged trading can also magnify losses.
