FAQ: Preguntas Frecuentes

Yes, but funding and withdrawal options may be limited. Non-residents may need additional verification. Check with XM support for available options and consider international transfer fees.

The minimum deposit doesn’t directly affect trading conditions. All clients have the same spreads and leverage. Larger deposits allow for bigger positions, better risk management, and potential VIP services.

Check other funding methods, consider accounts in different currencies, contact XM support, use a demo account temporarily, or save up. Look for promotions that may lower minimum deposit requirements.
