Main Insurance matters
Insurance plans and fees
This page explains how FXLIVE Insurance validity, activation rules, coverage, and fees work.
To compare available plans and pricing at a glance, see Insurance Plans.
For full legal terms, see FXLIVE Insurance: terms and conditions.
Validity and renewal
Validity depends on the plan:
LITEFX: 30 days
PROFX: 90 days
SECUREFX / MAXFX: 180 days
No automatic renewal: insurance does not renew or extend.
No refund if unused: if the plan expires without activation, there is no refund.
You can purchase a new plan after the current plan expires.
Activation rules
You can activate insurance once during its validity period.
Activate it after a loss is recorded. Best practice is to activate when your loss reaches (or is close to) the protected amount.
Insurance cannot be activated if you have open positions.
You can activate insurance even if the account has already been traded.
If you activate insurance early, it will only cover the loss at the moment of activation, then it will immediately deactivate after the refund is credited.
When insurance cannot be accessed
When the account balance is below the minimum required.
When there are open trades in the account.
Coverage and compensation
What is covered?
Coverage is based on the selected percentage (typically 10% to 50%) of the initial balance at the moment of purchase.
Compensation is credited as an internal deposit / balance adjustment to your trading account.
The insurance covers real trading losses, provided you complied with trading rules.
What is not covered?
Unrealized profits
Bonuses or credits
Swaps and commissions
Losses caused by policy violations or misuse of leverage
Restrictions and eligibility
One active insurance per trading account.
Insurance cannot be combined with other compensation programs.
FXLIVE may review your trading history before approving activation to confirm losses were not caused by abusive practices, such as:
Cross hedging
Internal arbitrage
Extreme latency scalping
High-frequency copy trading
Eligible account types
ECN Pro
Zero Commission
Swap Free
Accounts connected to Social Trading can be insured as long as they belong to the eligible groups listed above.
Refunds and limitations
After you receive compensation, the insurance is fully consumed.
You can never receive more than your protected amount.
Insurance fees are non-refundable, even if the plan is never activated.
