Can I Use the Same Funds for Trading on Both NSE and MCX?
Yes, you can use the same pool of funds to trade across both NSE (Equity segment) and MCX (Commodity segment) on FYERS. There’s no requirement to maintain separate balances or make internal transfers between exchanges.
How it works
FYERS operates a unified margin account, which means:
- Your available funds and margin are shared across NSE and MCX segments.
- A single deposit allows you to trade in both equities and commodities.
- No separate wallet or internal transfer is needed to switch between segments.
This unified margin structure makes fund management seamless and reduces idle capital.
What if…
| Scenario | What you can do |
|---|
| You only see margin for NSE but not MCX | Make sure you're checking your overall funds or combined margin view—not segment-specific reports. |
| You want to allocate funds to one segment only | While funds are pooled, you can control exposure by limiting your trades to the desired segment. There’s no formal allocation feature. |
| There's a shortfall while trading on MCX | Add funds to your trading account. The new balance will automatically reflect across both NSE and MCX segments. |
Monitor your positions across segments—margin shortfall in one (e.g., MCX) can impact available margin in the other (e.g., NSE).
