Forex4you Minimum Deposit Options for Indian Traders
Open your Forex4you account in India with low minimum deposit options. Cent accounts, demo trading, and flexible funding methods available.
Account Types and Minimum Deposit Requirements
At Forex4you, we provide various account options tailored for Indian traders. Each account type has a defined minimum deposit level, allowing you to choose according to your trading experience and capital availability. The cent account is designed for those starting with small investments, requiring just $1 USD (around ₹83 INR). This enables trading with fractional lot sizes, helping you learn without risking significant funds. For more seasoned traders, the standard account demands a $50 USD minimum deposit (approximately ₹4,150 INR), offering access to standard lot sizes and tighter spreads.
Account Type | Minimum Deposit (USD) | Minimum Deposit (INR) | Lot Size | Leverage |
---|---|---|---|---|
Cent Account | $1 | ₹83 | 0.01 cent lots | Up to 1:2000 |
Standard Account | $50 | ₹4,150 | 0.01 standard lots | Up to 1:1000 |
Demo Account | $0 | ₹0 | Virtual funds | Up to 1:1000 |
Demo Account Benefits
Our demo account requires no minimum deposit and provides a virtual balance of $10,000. This allows Indian traders to simulate live trading conditions on the MT4 platform without risking real money. Using the demo, you can practice executing trades, testing strategies, and becoming familiar with the interface.
Funding Methods Available in India
We support a variety of deposit options that cater to Indian clients’ preferences and banking regulations. Our payment options include bank wire transfers, credit/debit cards, and cryptocurrencies. Bank wires typically take 1-3 business days to process and are suitable for larger deposits. Card payments via Visa and Mastercard are processed instantly, with a minimum deposit of $10 USD (around ₹830 INR). Cryptocurrency deposits provide a faster alternative, confirming within 30 minutes.
- Bank wire transfers: secure and traditional, ideal for high amounts

- Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether accepted with specific minimums
Each method ensures compliance with Indian financial regulations and supports INR conversions where applicable.
Account Verification Process
Verification is a required step before deposits and withdrawals. Indian traders must upload a government-issued photo ID such as a passport, Aadhaar card, or driver’s license. Proof of address must be recent (within three months) and can include bank statements or utility bills. Documents must be clear, legible, and match your registered account details.
Expedited Verification Process
To accelerate verification, submit all required documents simultaneously through our mobile app. Our team prioritizes complete applications during Indian working hours (9 AM to 6 PM IST), often completing reviews within the same day.
Platform Setup and Trading Interface
Forex4you provides access to the MetaTrader 4 platform via desktop, web, and mobile apps. Installation is straightforward, taking under five minutes on Windows systems and mobile devices. The desktop version requires Windows 7 or higher, 50MB free disk space, and a stable internet connection with at least 1 Mbps. Mobile apps support Android 4.0+ and iOS 9.0+.
Platform Type | System Requirements | Download Size | Installation Time |
---|---|---|---|
Desktop MT4 | Windows 7+, 50MB space | 15MB | 2-3 minutes |

Mobile App | Android 4.0+/iOS 9.0+ | 25MB | 1-2 minutes |
Trading Account Configuration
Once installed, configure your account by selecting leverage and base currency. Indian traders can choose USD, EUR, or INR as their base. Leverage ranges from 1:1 to 1:2000 depending on account type. Spreads start as low as 0.1 pips on major pairs like EUR/USD. Execution speed averages 0.3 seconds, minimizing slippage during volatile periods.
Risk Management for Small Deposits
Managing risk is essential when trading with low capital. We recommend risking no more than 1-2% of your balance per trade. For example, on a $50 standard account, limit losses to $1 per trade. This corresponds to about 0.01 lot sizes with 10-pip stop-losses on major currencies.
- Use stop-loss and take-profit orders to automate risk control
- Avoid excessive leverage despite high available limits
- Diversify trades across different currency pairs
- Keep detailed logs of all trades for performance review
- Utilize our platform’s trailing stops to protect profits
