Insurance plans and fees

This page explains how FXLIVE Insurance validity, activation rules, coverage, and fees work.


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.

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.


Practical example (fee and payout)

Base example

  • Balance at purchase: $1,000

  • Plan: LITEFX – 10% – 30 days – 3.5% fee

  • Protected capital: $100
