| Bonus Type | Max Bonus | Conversion | Margin Credit | Rate | Conversion Window |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50% Deposit Bonus | Up to $5,000 | Volume-Based | Not Real Equity | 50% of Net Deposit | 90 Days |
CTForex takes a transparent, volume-driven approach to deposit bonuses. Rather than a simple credit that either unlocks or expires, the broker applies a structured conversion model: earn $100 in real, withdrawable funds for every 5 Forex lots or 2 CFD lots traded within 90 days of receiving your bonus.
The maximum bonus available is $5,000 matched at 50% of your net deposit, and conversion applies regardless of whether those trades were profitable or not. It is a volume-based reward, not a profit-based one.
The bonus itself functions as margin credit. It boosts your free margin and allows you to carry larger positions, but it cannot be withdrawn directly.
What can be withdrawn is the portion you unlock through trading volume accumulated in $100 blocks, each released as real account balance once the corresponding lot requirement is met.

The CTForex bonus does not unlock all at once. Instead, it converts into withdrawable funds in increments of $100, each unlocked by completing a defined volume block. Every lot you trade whether that trade closes in profit or loss counts toward releasing real money from your bonus credit.
Forex and CFD instruments are weighted differently due to their varying margin and volatility profiles. Forex requires more lots per $100 unlocked; CFDs require fewer. Traders active across both instrument types can mix their volume, with each contributing proportionally to the total conversion.
| Instrument Type | Required Volume | Bonus Unlocked Per Block |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | 5 Standard Lots | USD 100 |
| CFD (Indices, Metals, Oil, Crypto CFD) | 2 Standard Lots | USD 100 |
| Mixed (Forex + CFD) | Combined volume counts | USD 100 per completed block |
| Expert Note: The CFD conversion rate is significantly more efficient than Forex 2 lots versus 5 lots per $100 unlocked. Traders active in indices, metals, or oil markets can convert their bonus substantially faster than Forex-only traders. If your strategy spans both instrument types, prioritising CFD volume early in the 90-day window maximises your converted balance before expiry. |
The following example illustrates how a $5,000 deposit and the resulting $2,500 bonus convert into withdrawable funds over the 90-day period.
| Deposit Amount | USD 5,000 |
| Bonus Rate | 50% |
| Bonus Allocated | USD 2,500 |
| Trading Period | 90 days or less |
| Forex Lots Traded | 15 standard lots → USD 300 unlocked (3 blocks × 5 lots) |
| CFD Lots Traded | 12 standard lots → USD 600 unlocked (6 blocks × 2 lots) |
| Total Bonus Converted | USD 900 credited as withdrawable balance |
| Remaining Bonus Removed | USD 1,600 automatically removed after expiry |
