KYC verification is completed within 24 to 48 hours for residents of India. The minimum deposit starts at $1 USD (around ₹83), making access affordable for beginners.

We accept several deposit options compatible with Indian banking systems, including bank cards, UPI, and e-wallets. Traders can choose from multiple account types, each with distinct features and trading conditions.

Each account type suits different trading styles and capital levels.

MetaTrader Platform Integration for Indian Traders

We provide MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms customized for India. Both support Hindi language interfaces and operate on IST timezone for accurate session timing. MT4 requires Windows 7 or newer, 512MB RAM minimum, and stable internet. The platform auto-configures FBS server connections optimized for Indian users, usually linking to Singapore servers to minimize latency.

Platform Setup and Configuration

Download MT4 or MT5 installers from our official site using HTTPS for security. The MT4 installation file is 28MB and supports automatic updates. After installing, open the platform and select “Login to Trade Account,” entering your credentials from the FBS personal area. Choose the appropriate server: “FBS-Real” for live accounts or “FBS-Demo” for practice.

Connection status with ping times appears at the platform’s lower right, confirming optimal server response. Chart panels allow timeframes from one minute to monthly, with over 30 built-in technical indicators like RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, and moving averages. You can add custom indicators through the Navigator panel.

Order Execution and Management

Market orders execute within an average of 0.1 seconds. Pending orders include buy limit, sell limit, buy stop, and sell stop types, all supporting stop loss and take profit settings. To manage risk, use the position sizing calculator that suggests lot sizes based on account balance and defined risk percentages. We advise limiting risk to 2% per trade.

Stock CFD Trading Mechanics and Instruments

Stock CFDs let traders speculate on price changes without owning actual shares. Our platform provides real-time quotes sourced directly from underlying stock exchanges, maintaining tight spreads. For example, Apple (AAPL) CFDs typically have a spread of 0.02, while Tesla (TSLA) averages 0.05.

Fractional trading is supported, allowing positions as small as 0.01 CFD units, roughly 1% of a full share. This feature enables access to high-value stocks like Amazon with lower capital requirements.

• Technology sector: Apple, Microsoft, Google, Tesla, Amazon
• Banking sector: JPMorgan, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs
• Healthcare sector: Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Moderna
• Energy sector: ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP

Dividend adjustments credit long CFD holders on ex-dividend dates; short positions incur dividend debits. Swap rates vary between -2.5% and +0.5% annually depending on position direction and stock specifics.

Market Hours and Trading Sessions

Trading hours correspond to the underlying exchange schedules with access to pre-market and after-hours sessions. NYSE stocks trade from 9:30 to 16:00 EST, with extended hours from 4:00 to 9:30 and 16:00 to 20:00. Indian traders can trade US markets between 20:00 and 01:30 IST.

Risk Management Systems

Use the position sizing calculator for precise lot determination based on stop loss distance and risk percentage. We advise risking no more than 2% of the account on each trade. Trailing stops lock in profits by adjusting stop loss levels dynamically, with a minimum trailing distance of 15 points on major stocks.
