General Trading Principles:
The company arranges the execution of the client’s orders placed on the trading platform, where the company executes the orders it receives within a reasonable speed.
-
Transactions consist of an offer made by the client to the company to complete a transaction, whether to open or close a position at a specific price. However, the offer is not complete until the offer is received and accepted by the company. There is no clear acceptance except through the company’s confirmation of its terms.
-
A transaction cannot be canceled or modified after it has been completed. However, the company has the right to void or cancel any transaction that contains a clear error or if the company has a serious belief that there is fraud or suspicion in the transaction. The company will not be responsible for any loss or cost resulting from an error – whether of the client or others – that it reasonably believes to be a clear or tangible error, such as offers to execute transactions for exaggerated volumes of underlying assets, or with incorrect market price quotes, or prices that contain a clear loss, or what is known as a clear error.
-
Every position the client opens and every completed transaction created at their request is binding on the client.
-

-
The client understands that the trading platform is independent of any underlying markets, and the company is not obligated to a specific price display, nor is it obligated to follow the rules, mechanisms, and principles of trading in those markets. The prices provided by the company are in no way related to the prices displayed in the relevant underlying markets. The company is not obligated when executing the client’s order for the execution to be at a more efficient and suitable price than the price that may be displayed in another market or another platform.
-
The company may ignore any prices displayed on its platform before the market opens or after it closes, or during bidding periods in the relevant underlying markets, or during short price fluctuations.
-
The client is committed to any restrictions or instructions communicated to them by the company regarding their investments and activities on the trading platforms. The company may determine the size of transactions and trades and their specific conditions for any client.
-
The company may restrict the size of transactions to the minimum number of units on the trading platform, considering the unit amount and its multiples as the maximum amount allowed for trading through the platform. The company may assign the unit amount for each underlying asset.
-
The company may reject any order from the client if it finds that it has reasonable reasons to do so.
-
The client has also authorized the company to act as a commercial intermediary between them and the global market.
Price Quotes:
The only source for obtaining price quotes is the company’s trading platform or any other means of communication that the company deems appropriate to notify the client of price quotes. It is understood that any quotes on the client’s device do not in any way constitute a binding source of price quotes. The company will not consider any price quotes that contain a clear error as defined in the clear error definition above.
-
The client is obligated to submit an offer to close or open a position during the validity period of the price quote. The company is not obligated to complete any transaction after the price quote has closed.
-
In the event of closing or opening a position or part of an open position, the part that will remain open must not be less than the minimum unit price specified on the trading platform, and when opening a position, the number of units must be greater than or equal to the minimum unit price specified on the platform.
-
When the client requests to open a position, they understand that the company will not open the position if that opening leads to an exceeding of their balance, or margin, or any balance, or margin placed on the client’s transactions.
-
The client understands that any error on their part that leads to the request not being received completely, whether it is a technical or mechanical error related to the client or their communication devices or software, the company will not respond to it and/or complete it, and the company has the authority to decide the legality or validity of the request.
-
The client understands the company’s right not to fulfill requests in unusual market conditions or cases of force majeure.
-
The client understands the company’s right not to accept an order to open or close a position because the client has not met one of the trading conditions.

Time Limits of the Agreement:
This agreement is effective from the beginning of the client’s dealing with the company and the company’s acceptance of this dealing. However, the company may unilaterally terminate this agreement directly and notify the client of this within a reasonable period. However, this action will not have any effect on any actual amounts paid by either party or any rights or obligations that have arisen for them. This is considered an authorization for the company to close any open positions for the client and a full right for it to prevent their access to the platforms.
Upon this, the client’s accounts are balanced, and any amounts owed to or by the client become immediately due. This includes the company’s right to stop the client from withdrawing funds from the trading account and to retain the funds for a reasonable period to pay any outstanding obligations on the client or to meet the requirements for closing open positions.
Tax Accounts:
When a transaction is closed, all amounts that are due to either party to this agreement are payable immediately. Therefore, this agreement is considered an authorization to deduct or add any amounts to the trading accounts when the transaction is closed. The placement of a trading order, until this order is closed, is considered a restriction on the client’s freedom to withdraw from the maintenance margin.
-
Any taxes or fees imposed by a competent authority related to transactions on the platform must be paid by the client, or they authorize the company to deduct and pay them to the competent authority on their behalf.
-
The client is obligated to pay any commissions that accrue to the company or others as a result of their trades on the platform.
Settlement:
It is agreed that the settlement of rights on the platforms will be in cash.
When the amounts due to either party are balanced upon the closure of transactions, the client will be responsible for settling any differences related to buying or selling and the transaction’s closing price if the purchase price or sale price differs from the transaction’s opening price. The client is obligated to pay the difference if the transaction’s closing price is higher than its opening price in selling, or the transaction’s closing price is lower than its opening price in buying. Conversely, the client makes a profit if the transaction’s closing price is lower than its opening price in selling, or the transaction’s closing price is higher than its opening price in buying.
Liquidation and Set-off:
After the settlement and determination of the client’s financial position and the set-off between their obligations and rights, the party that owes an amount to the other party to this agreement is obligated to pay the said amount without delay. The accounts payable shall lose the right to claim or settlement if the balance falls below zero (negative balance), and they shall not be subject to liquidation and offset provisions. The company will pay the client any amounts if their account is a creditor, and the payment will be from the company’s account or one of its affiliated companies. This payment will be effective with regard to the client and will clear the company’s liability. The client will pay the company any amounts if their account is a debtor, without prejudice to the company’s right to combine and set off all trading accounts opened in the client’s name and/or to unify and settle these balances in one account.
-
In the event that the client requests the transfer of their funds to a specific financial institution and that institution is declared insolvent or bankrupt, the company has the right to claim those funds on behalf of the client, without being obligated to do so and without this agreement constituting a guarantee for the company’s claim on behalf of the client.
-
The company grants the client, within its capabilities, the right to know or track information related to their funds held by the company.
-
In cases other than a judicial decision or a decision issued by a competent authority, the company will not seize any of the client’s funds in favor of a third party, except for the purposes of fulfilling their trading obligations and their obligations contained in this agreement or the company’s rights.

The company also closes any open positions to pay these fees, and in the event that there is not enough balance to cover these fees, the fees are recorded as a debt owed by the client without notice or warning, and the company has the right to take the necessary measures to completely close the client’s account. In the event that the account is left inactive for more than two years, the company may close the account after collecting the aforementioned fees and liquidating the account and keeping the funds, if any, for the client with the company.
-
The client understands that any promotional or advertising funds placed in their account cannot be used to pay dormant trading fees, as the company has the right to recover those funds originally granted to the client for free.
Authorization:
With the client’s acknowledgment of their understanding of the trading steps by accessing the platform and entering the account credentials, they authorize the company to carry out the instructions and orders they enter and request without the company inquiring about their validity. All electronic instructions or instructions carried out by any means of communication issued by the client are considered written orders. Thus, the client bears the risks of all instructions they issue, even if they are inappropriate, fraudulent, or unauthorized. They clear the company of any obligation that arises against it as a result of this, regardless of what this obligation is and its value. The client also bears the consequences of these instructions and any consequences or lawsuits filed against the company in any way as a result of their action.
-
The authorization granted to the company does not mean that it has a legal right or obligation to provide advice or consultation or to verify the validity of any of the instructions and signatures before each trading operation.
-
The client authorizes the company to act based on any instructions given by them or if the company has serious reasons to believe that they were given by them on the trading platform.
-
This authorization does not constitute an obligation on the company to act in accordance with instructions issued by the client if that constitutes a violation of any rule, work regulation, international agreement, or recognized law.
The order given by the client also does not constitute any obligation on the company if the client giving the order is exceeding their authority. In the event of a violation of regulations, laws, and agreements or exceeding authority, the company has the right to close the transaction at the prevailing price or to void it from its foundation.
-
The company may act on offers made by clients according to its absolute discretion. The company is not responsible for any loss or damage of any kind as a result of rejecting, neglecting, or delaying action on that offer, even if it is due to its error. Although the company acts with the client’s authorization, the client deals with it as a principal, whether (a natural person or an authorized representative of a legal entity) and is not in any way considered an agent for others. This means that the client will be directly and personally responsible for fulfilling the obligations required of them unless otherwise explicitly agreed upon in writing.
Communication and Notifications:
The primary language of communication will be Arabic, with the company having the right to use any other official language. Therefore, the language of notifications, messages, and communication will be Arabic.
-
For the purposes of communicating with the client, the company may use email, regular mail, the platform’s internal mail, official postal services, fax, or commercial mail. Communication will be based on the details that the client provided to the company in their personal data. The sending of mail to those addresses is considered fulfilling the company’s obligation for the purposes for which it is required to communicate or correspond. For these purposes, the data, documents, notifications, and other things required from the company are considered delivered to the client if they are sent via the company’s official email, or via the trading platform’s mail, or through telephone contact, or via official state mail, or commercial mail, or through airmail, or by means of advertisements published on the company’s websites. However, the client is not considered to have received the documents until one hour after they are sent via email unless they prove that they opened the mail before that, or upon receiving the transmission report to the fax machine, or after receiving confirmation of receipt of the express or air mail, or upon the publication of the information on the company’s website and within half an hour, or at the end of the telephone call directly or immediately upon sending it via the platform’s mail. All of the previous methods are considered a written notice for communication.
Legal Interpretation
The client can issue an offer at the best market price on the trading platform when opening a transaction unless they specify a certain price for that transaction offer. The offer in the first case is a market order, and in the second case, it is a limit order. The client understands that a market order, when completed, may not be at the exact same price as offered. The client agrees to accept an offer to open the market at a slightly different price according to the trading platforms. The company attempts to obtain the best possible price displayed on the trading platform to achieve the client’s desired profit. As for a limit order, the price at which the transaction is completed may not be equal to the specific price offered at the moment the order is submitted. The client understands that the company will conclude the transaction with a slight difference while the company considers opportunities for achieving the best profit for the client.
-
The client can remove orders unless they have been executed, and they can also change and modify stop-loss orders at a specific level and at the company’s discretion.
-
Orders and instructions to open positions outside of trading hours may not be executed if the market price changes, even if the company has accepted them.
-
Whenever necessary, the company will delete or cancel market orders that have not been executed due to a lack of ability or sufficient volume to fill them. However, pending orders will remain valid during the trading session if possible, and open positions will be carried over to the next business day if possible, according to the company’s capability and discretion.
-
Orders can be changed during the trading hours for all types of contracts shown on the company’s website.

-
The client can change, delete, and/or modify the expiration date of pending orders that have not been executed, according to the company’s regulations.
-
The client confirms that the prices on the platform may not represent the actual trading price due to market price fluctuations.
-
The company will, whenever possible, notify the client of a price change if the underlying asset’s price moves in the client’s favor. In case of negative fluctuations, the company may close the transaction at the next best price if the company is unable to guarantee the execution of the order at the client’s request.
-
If the company is unable to do the above, the company will send the client another new price quote, noting that the company will execute the client’s orders in a sequential order.
-
The client does not have the right to set a closing price for a transaction outside of business hours. The company may allow them to set the closing price during trading hours.
-
If the client chooses additional functions for the trading platform, such as an expert advisor or others, this is at the client’s absolute responsibility, with no responsibility on the company.

A stop-loss order may not limit losses to the intended amounts, as market conditions may prevent the execution of this order at the specified price.

-
Sometimes, due to market fluctuations, orders may not be executed at the level specified on the client’s request, and this does not constitute a violation on the part of the company.
