Your email and phone, PAN and Aadhaar for KYC, and a bank account for funding and payouts. Registration and email verification take a few minutes; the trading account is provisioned automatically once KYC is in order.

Resident Indian individuals aged 18 or over who complete KYC. Derivatives are leveraged products, so consider whether they suit your experience and risk appetite before you start.

NSE index and stock futures, NSE options (calls and puts, weekly and monthly), MCX commodities (gold, silver, crude oil, natural gas and base metals) and GIFT Nifty on NSE IX. There is no equity cash segment — no delivery, intraday-cash, MTF or SIP.

Derivatives trade in fixed quantities called lots, set by the exchange for each contract. You buy or sell whole lots; the lot size and the margin for one lot are shown on the order ticket.

Yes. Futures and bought options can be held to the next session or rolled to the next expiry. Index futures and options are cash-settled, so there is no delivery to manage — most traders square off or roll before expiry.

NSE futures and options: 09:15–15:30 IST. MCX: roughly 09:00 to 23:30 IST (later in US daylight time). GIFT Nifty trades about 21 hours a day across two sessions. Exact timings are set by the exchanges.

The terminal is built around buying calls and puts, where your risk is capped at the premium paid. Where writing is available, the SPAN and exposure margin is shown on the ticket before you confirm.

It isn't — SigmaFX charges zero brokerage on every trade, across NSE futures & options, MCX and GIFT Nifty, on both the buy and the sell. Account opening, maintenance and the platform are free too. You pay only the statutory charges (STT/CTT, exchange, SEBI, stamp duty, GST) that every broker collects on behalf of the government and exchanges — itemised before you confirm.

The usual statutory charges on any Indian derivatives trade: STT/CTT, exchange transaction charges, the SEBI turnover fee, stamp duty and GST. Every one is itemised at its live rate before you confirm, and again on the contract note.

Margin is the amount you post to open and hold a leveraged position — SPAN plus exposure, as computed by the exchange. If your balance falls below the required margin, positions can be squared off, so keep a buffer.

No. What you see itemised on the order ticket is what you pay. There are no account-opening, maintenance, deposit or withdrawal fees.

Fund your trading account by bank transfer or UPI from your registered bank account. The balance is typically ready to trade right away.

Client funds are held in a segregated account, separate from the firm's own money, and you can see your balance and ledger at any time in the terminal.

The terminal runs in any modern browser and installs as an app on Android (a direct APK) and on iPhone and iPad (an installable web app). Your positions, orders and watchlists sync across every device.

Yes. Place stop-loss and target orders on a position, and set price alerts on any contract so you never miss a level you care about.

Yes. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses, and you can lose money quickly. Trade only with capital you can afford to lose, size positions carefully and use stop-losses. SigmaFX provides a platform, not investment advice.
