Plus500’s mobile app delivers a professional, low-friction CFD experience built around stability, order control, and real-time risk visibility. Its clean interface, transparent margin display, and fast symbol search make it easy to manage multiple positions while staying on top of requirements and exposure.
What Stands Out (at a glance):
- 2,800+ CFDs across major and niche markets.
- Live margin & risk controls with maintenance alerts.
- Advanced charting with 100+ technical indicators.
- Push notifications for price, volatility, and margin events.
Markets & Instruments
Trade CFDs on Forex, Commodities, Stocks, Indices, and ETFs from a unified watchlist. Instrument tiles show spread, daily % change, and leverage availability, so you can scan opportunities without digging into submenus. Sorting and custom lists help you keep high-priority symbols front and center during volatile sessions.
Orders, Execution & Position Control
- Order types: market, limit, stop, and trailing stop; attach Stop Loss and Take Profit at ticket level.
- Guaranteed Stop (where available) for slippage control on defined instruments.
- Partial close and quick reverse tools streamline intraday risk adjustments.
- Real-time P/L and margin impact preview before submitting the order—useful when managing tight free margin.
Risk Management & Margin Transparency
Plus500 is known for clear margin presentation. The app shows:
- Initial and maintenance margin per position and as account totals.
- Free margin and margin level with color cues as thresholds approach.
- Auto-close rules explained in-app to avoid surprises during fast moves.
You can set price and percentage-based alerts, volatility alerts, and margin alerts so you’re notified before a forced liquidation scenario.
Charting & Analysis (100+ Indicators)
Charts load quickly and support:
- Multiple timeframes from tick/1-minute up to higher timeframes.
- Overlays and oscillators (e.g., RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, EMA/MA stacks, ATR).
- Drawing tools for trendlines, channels, Fibonacci levels, and zones.
Save indicator templates to keep your workflow consistent between symbols.
Account Management, Funding & Costs
- Commission-free trading with costs embedded in the spread.
- No ticket commissions; check the instrument info panel for overnight funding and spread ranges.
- Minimum deposit: $100.
- Multiple deposit/withdrawal methods; processing time for withdrawals can vary by method and verification status.
- In-app statements, exportable history, and tax reports aid reconciliation.
Education & Platform Aids
- Integrated instrument info pages summarizing contract specs, trading hours, leverage, and fees.
- Economic calendar and news headlines to prep for data releases.
- A demo environment (paper trading) mirrors live pricing and execution behavior, helping you test strategies risk-free.
Security & Regulation
Plus500 operates under multiple regulators, including FCA, CySEC, ASIC, and FMA. The app uses secure authentication and industry-standard encryption; account protections and leverage caps depend on your jurisdiction and client classification.
