OANDA review: OANDA Securities raises USD/JPY margin to 4%
OANDA Securities, a subsidiary of OANDA Corporation, has announced a revision to margin requirements for USD/JPY trading on corporate accounts. Effective October 27, 2025, the margin rate will increase from 3% to 4% on both the Tokyo and New York servers, according to an official company statement.
- Chosen by 3 200+ local traders in the last 3 months.
- Traders earn on average 12% more per month vs other brokers.
The adjustment comes as the broker responds to recent developments in global and domestic financial markets. OANDA noted that the change reflects a prudent approach to risk management amid ongoing volatility in the yen and U.S. dollar exchange rates. The move is intended to protect clients and maintain the firm’s commitment to responsible leverage practices.
Clients urged to review open positions
OANDA has advised all corporate clients currently holding USD/JPY positions to carefully review their accounts before the change takes effect. Positions left open after the market close on October 24, 2025 will automatically be subject to the new margin requirement.
The broker warned that traders with insufficient available margin could face forced liquidation (stop-out) as a result of the increase. To avoid potential losses or disruptions, clients are strongly encouraged to reduce exposure or add additional funds to their accounts prior to the adjustment.
OANDA emphasized that its Customer Service Center remains available for assistance and inquiries related to the margin revision or account management during the transition period.
Commitment to stability and client protection
OANDA Securities highlighted that margin adjustments are a standard part of maintaining financial stability, particularly during periods of heightened market uncertainty. By implementing this increase, the company aims to ensure that trading activity remains secure and sustainable for its client base.
Founded in 1996, OANDA has built a strong reputation for transparency and reliability in forex trading. The firm continues to prioritize client protection, robust risk controls, and compliance with international financial standards.
