Crypto Asset Trading FAQs

Answers to the questions you care about most on crypto asset CFDs.

What are the advantages and risks of crypto CFD trading?

Crypto CFDs let you trade price moves in mainstream assets such as Bitcoin (BTCUSD) and Ethereum (ETHUSD) without holding or managing digital wallets. Key advantages: 24/7 trading, two-way positions (long/short) and leverage for capital efficiency. Note that crypto prices can swing sharply in a short time, and leverage amplifies both potential gains and losses — participate within your risk tolerance. On LAKEFOX you can trade mainstream crypto CFDs on MT5 with STP direct execution and raw spreads.

What are the fees and trading hours for crypto CFDs?

LAKEFOX offers raw spreads from as low as 0.0 on mainstream crypto CFDs such as BTCUSD and ETHUSD. Crypto markets trade 24/7, complementing traditional financial markets. The spread — the difference between bid and ask — is the main cost, with no extra commission. Overnight positions may incur swap rates shown on the MT5 platform. Execution is STP with transparent spreads and no hidden fees.

How can I manage the risk of crypto CFD trading?

High volatility is both the opportunity and the risk. First, always set stop-loss and take-profit to define risk boundaries. Second, size positions carefully to avoid margin calls from excessive leverage. Third, stay informed — crypto is highly sensitive to news and market sentiment. MT5 provides complete risk tools — stop-loss, take-profit, trailing stop and stop-limit orders — to help you apply discipline in practice.
