You may still close positions opened before 18:00 on June 10, 2024 (UTC+10), and transfer the assets to your other account, such as trading or funding account.
(b) At 18:00 on July 21, 2024 (UTC+10), we will restrict access by Australian users to the affected Products from our platform. This includes the forceful closure of all open positions and active orders of the affected Products initiated before 18:00 on June 10, 2024 (UTC+10). The remaining assets of affected Products will then be transferred to your corresponding account.

Failure to do so will result in restrictions of the affected Products for your account. Failure to update KYC information by June 10, 2024 will result in the restrictions detailed in paragraph 1(a) of this Notice, and further failure to update KYC information by July 21, 2024 will lead to the consequences detailed in paragraphs 1(b) and 1(c) of this Notice.
4. We are working on approaches to our operations in Australia and will notify you once our services become available for users in Australia.
5. Please also be cautious of suspicious links and any asset transfers that are not properly verified. Trust official communication channels only. If you need further help, please contact our Help Center.
