Market Instruments

GStock advertises that it offers access to a wide range of trading instruments in financial markets, including shares, forex currency pairs, and cryptocurrencies.

Account Types

GStock claims to offer three types of trading accounts, namely Opti Trade, Standard Trade and Maxi Trade, with minimum initial deposit requirements of $250, $500 and $1,000 respectively. In comparison, licensed brokers allow setting up a starter account with a minimum deposit of $100 or even less.

Leverage

The specified leverage for different account types at GStock varies between 1:100 and 1:500. Clients on the Opti Trade account can experience leverage of 1:100, and the Standard Trade and Maxi Trade accounts can enjoy a higher leverage of 1:200 and 1:500 separately. However, according to the regulations, British and Australian brokers have to limit their clients to 1:30, while US brokers cant provide more than 1:50.

It is important to keep in mind that the greater the leverage, the greater the risk of losing your deposited capital. The use of leverage can both work in your favour and against you.
