Deriv MT5

What is Deriv MetaTrader 5 (Deriv MT5)?

Deriv MT5 is a CFD trading platform that gives you access to forex, stocks, stock indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and derived indices. Learn more about Deriv MT5 here.

What are the main differences between your digital options and CFD platforms?

Deriv Trader, SmartTrader, and Deriv Bot offer digital options trading on a range of underlying assets such as forex, stock indices, commodities, and derived indices. These platforms allow you to set the contract duration before opening positions, and you'll know exactly how much you'll earn if you win. You may find these platforms more intuitive if you're new to the trading world.

Deriv X and Deriv MT5 offer CFD trading on a similar range of assets, where you're able to open positions with leverage and your potential profit is only known when you close your positions. It's riskier than digital options trading because while you may potentially gain a lot if you win, you may also lose a lot if you don't. Deriv X and Deriv MT5 are popular among our traders who enjoy the risks as part of the excitement of CFD trading.

What are the differences between the MT5 Standard, Financial, and Swap-free accounts?

The MT5 Standard account offers contracts for difference (CFDs) on both financial instruments (like forex, stocks, stock indices, cryptocurrencies, and more) and derived indices. Derived indices include our proprietary synthetic indices as well as indices derived from the price movement of real financial markets. Selected derived indices can be traded 24/7, even on weekends and holidays, while the others are available for trade round the clock on weekdays.

The MT5 Financial account offers CFDs on forex, commodities, cryptocurrencies, stocks, and stock indices, with high leverage and variable spreads for maximum flexibility. This account offers more than 100 assets, and 24/7 trading is available on cryptocurrencies.

The MT5 Swap-free account offers swap-free CFD trading on selected derived and financial assets. With 24/7 trading available for synthetic indices and cryptocurrencies, this account allows you to leave your positions open overnight without additional charges.

How can I withdraw funds from my Deriv MT5 real money account?

You'll need to transfer the funds from your Deriv MT5 account to your Deriv account. You can do this on the Cashier page. Your funds will be available in your Deriv account as soon as you complete the transfer.

Why are my Deriv MT5 login details different from my Deriv login details?

This difference is because MT5 is a third-party platform that requires its own login credentials. Your Deriv MT5 login gives you access to the MT5 platform, while your Deriv login gives you access to our digital options platforms, such as Deriv Trader and Deriv Bot.
