How to Open an Additional Account with Exness

At Exness, opening an additional account allows you to use different account types for different purposes, allocate funds to diversify risk, and enjoy a more comfortable FX trading experience. Open an additional account with Exness and discover the benefits of using multiple accounts.

Exness offers five account types, each with its own unique features.By opening an additional account, you can access all of these account types. Exness offers a total of five account types: the Standard Cent and Standard accounts, which are easy to use for all traders—from beginners to advanced FX traders—and the Low Spread, Zero, and Pro accounts, which are recommended for intermediate to advanced traders.

Trading conditions—such as order execution methods, spreads, and whether trading commissions apply—vary by account type, so it is very important to choose the account type that best suits your trading style and strategy. Since the account type you choose has a significant impact on your performance, we recommend opening additional accounts depending on the securities and market conditions to ensure you trade in the optimal environment.

Please note that at Exness, you can hold up to 200 trading accounts (100 MT4 accounts and 100 MT5 accounts) per account.After opening a new account, you can open up to 199 additional accounts. However, please note that to reduce server load, the maximum number of accounts that can be opened for each account type is set at 100 (for Standard Cent accounts, up to 10 accounts each on MT4 and MT5, for a total of up to 20 accounts).

At Exness, you can engage in hedging across multiple accounts—a practice that is prohibited by many FX brokers. Since you can hedge using multiple accounts, this expands your trading options and offers the potential for increased profit opportunities.Hedging is a trading strategy in which you simultaneously hold both a long and a short position in the same currency pair. It is used to target significant profits or to hedge against risk when you want to minimize losses.

One characteristic of hedging is that it is subject to strict regulations: domestic FX brokers generally prohibit hedging altogether, while overseas FX brokers typically allow it only within the same account.Under these circumstances, using multiple accounts can sometimes result in unintentional hedging across accounts, which may be subject to penalties as a prohibited practice. However, at Exness, there are absolutely no restrictions on hedging, so please feel free to use multiple accounts with confidence.

Since Exness does not charge account maintenance fees, you can feel free to use multiple accounts. It is not uncommon for some FX brokers to charge account maintenance fees on accounts that have been inactive for a long time.Even if you open an additional account and allocate funds to it, there may be times when you don’t use that account for a while—perhaps while waiting for a trading opportunity or due to a change in your trading strategy. In such cases, if an account maintenance fee were to be deducted, it would make it difficult to manage multiple accounts.However, since Exness does not charge any account maintenance fees at all, you can enjoy trading across multiple accounts with complete peace of mind.

To open an additional account with Exness, please log in to your Personal Area from any device—such as a PC, smartphone, or tablet—to complete the process. You can also open an additional account using the “Exness Trading App” provided by Exness. In either case, you can open an additional account by simply entering a few details and selecting your desired account settings.

Please note that at Exness, accounts that have not had any trading, deposits, withdrawals, or other activity for a certain period of time will automatically be archived (designated as dormant accounts) and moved to the “Archived” section of your Personal Area. However, accounts with a certain minimum balance will not be subject to archiving.Please note that the inactivity period and account balance thresholds for archiving differ between MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5), as outlined below.

Please note that to withdraw funds remaining in an archived (dormant) account, you must first reactivate the account before proceeding with the withdrawal. In the "Archiving Complete" section of your Personal Area, click "Reactivate" next to the account you wish to reactivate, and the account will be reactivated immediately.

Please note that while you can reactivate archived accounts, you cannot delete them.
