I want to ask if I can keep my deriv cfd account when i travel to Canada.  
I am a citizen of Nigeria and i have been actively trading in Nigeria, i want to visit Canada and i hope to continue trading with my deriv account that i created from Nigeria.. I hope my ip address won’t be flagged as fraudulent.

Hello @buffont-aflaunt-2 please note that Canada is a restricted country where we do not provide our services. We suggest you to not open the account there in order to avoid and locks on it and you will be able to continue trading once you get back to Nigeria.

Thank you for your understanding!
