Three accounts, side by side

Every figure below is the one the account pages and the spreads board quote, held in a single place so they cannot drift apart.

About this accountAbout this accountAbout this account

Spread from: A floor, not an average. The live board below shows what the spread is right now on each account.

Commission round turn: Per standard lot, opening and closing combined — twice the per-side figure above it. The whole amount is charged when the position opens; nothing further is taken when it closes.

Maximum leverage: Leverage magnifies a loss exactly as much as it magnifies a gain. The higher figure is not the better account.

Stop out level: Both are margin levels — equity as a percentage of the margin in use. At the margin call level you are warned; at the stop out level open positions start to be closed automatically.

Minimum stop level: How close to the current price a stop loss, take profit or pending order may be placed. It varies from symbol to symbol; the figure shown is the general minimum.

The same trade, on each account

Spread in pips, streaming from the broker's own feed. Read across a row to see what one instrument costs on all three accounts at the same instant; the tightest of the three is green.

Spreads are shown only while a market is open; a closed instrument shows a dash, because the spread a broker widens into a Friday close is not what that trade costs on Monday. Forex and metals are shut from midnight Saturday to midnight Monday, broker time (UTC+3). Spread is ask minus bid, in pips. A pip is ten points in every market except crypto, where it is one hundred. Spread is not the whole cost: ECN and ECN Pro charge commission on top of it, which the table above states, and on a small spread that commission is the larger number. Compare across a row, not down a column — a pip is a different size in each market. These prices come directly from the broker's trading platform.

CHOOSING BETWEEN THEM

One trade, priced three ways

On cost, the difference is spread against commission, and which side wins depends on how much you trade rather than on which account sounds more professional — but shares trade on ECN Pro only.

Standard — no commission

1.1 pips all-in on currencies and metals, $30 to open, and the terms the Islamic account trades on.

ECN — 0.2 pips plus $6

About 0.8 pips all-in on a standard lot of EUR/USD, for a $200 minimum deposit.

ECN Pro — 0.0 pips plus $4

About 0.4 pips all-in on the same lot, for a $5,000 minimum and leverage capped at 1:200.

Read the live table, not the floor

Every from figure is a floor. The board below prices the three accounts at the same instant, which is the only comparison that is true right now.

PICK ONE

Open the account that fits your volume

The terms above are nearly the whole difference. The platform, the price feed and the markets — currencies, metals, indices, energy and crypto — are the same on all three; shares trade on ECN Pro only.
