The dbFX Trading Platform at a Glance

Dealing Rates

Deutsche Bank feeds real-time streaming prices into the dbFX Trading platform. Prices update dynamically tick by tick with market moves. Dealing rates are not an indication of where the market is trading, but of actual prices at which the currency pair can be bought or sold on the Trading Platform. dbFX offers spreads from as low as 2 pips under normal market conditions.
  • Streaming Pricing in All Currency Pairs
  • Competitive Bid/Ask Spreads from 2 pips under normal market conditions

Market Orders

Placing a market order is quick and efficient. Click on the price in the dealing rates window to buy/sell the currency pair. This will bring up a market order box where the client can select the currency pair and amount. Once the "OK" button is clicked, the order will be filled at the exact price specified or not filled.

We will endeavor to confirm each trade to you by posting the trade in the open positions window or closed positions window, promptly after trade execution. In the "Open Positions Window", all required information is displayed regarding your open trade including the open price and real-time profit/loss, in both pips and US dollar terms.

Market Order


A market order is an order to buy or sell a currency pair immediately at the current market price displayed on the dbFX Trading Platform.
  • Rapid Order Execution
  • Real-time Trade Confirmation & On Demand Reporting
  • Real-time P/L Tracking

Note: Order execution and trade confirmations are prompt under normal market conditions. All quotes and trades are subject to the terms and conditions of the Deutsche Bank Client Agreement, accessible through this website.

Stop-Loss Orders and Trailing Stops

Stop-loss and limit orders can be placed on open positions simply by clicking on the stop/limit column on the open ticket. Orders can be modified or cancelled at any time. dbFX will endeavour to use the current prices as displayed on the dbFX trading platform to execute stop loss orders. If the market moves through the stop loss price the order will be executed at the next available price as displayed on the trading platform.

Clients also have the option of setting a trailing stop-loss order that will automatically adjust as the market price moves in the direction of the open position. The trailing stop feature allows clients to lock in profits without having to monitor the market.

Stop-Loss Order


A stop-loss order allows a client to limit potential losses from an unfavorable market move. An order to close the position is triggered by a rate specified by the client. With the dbFX Trading Platform, a stop-loss order is attached to a specific open position or entry order. If the position is closed or entry order cancelled, the attached limit order will be cancelled. Otherwise, the limit order is good till cancelled.

Trailing Stop-Loss


A trailing Stop-loss order is similar to a stop-loss, except contains an additional feature. The stop-loss level automatically adjusts in tick by tick increments to increase gains or decrease losses, as the underlying position makes favorable moves.
  • Ability to Set Stops and Trailing Stops

Margin Watcher

All account information is updated on a tick-by-tick basis, giving clients a complete view of their account activity. Clients have the ability to select the degree of leverage for their account. Margin requirements are fixed for both intraday trading and for positions held overnight.

Based on each client's margin requirement, the dbFX Trading Platform will calculate in real time both the funds needed to maintain current positions (Used Margin) and the funds available for taking new positions (Usable Margin). If the equity in the account drops below the margin required to maintain open positions, all open positions will be closed by the dealing desk at the market price.
