Fee summary
The mediums of charges are relatively cheaper: 1.0 pips are laid down for standard accounts and zero for commission accounts. Commissions, equal to $5 every 100k traded, are required by commission accounts. These are applied with an overnight swap rate for everything held overnight. The trading platform has neatly arranged details for swap rates for customers. Amounts of $15 per month are deducted in the case of dormant accounts.

Cost checklist

  1. 1Open the broker's current fee schedule and save the URL.
  2. 2Check spreads, commissions, swaps, withdrawal fees, inactivity fees and FX conversion fees.
  3. 3Match costs to the account type and platform you would actually use.
  4. 4Confirm whether advertised zero-commission terms are offset by spreads or other charges.
  5. 5Use InvestorTrip's cost calculator as a scenario tool, not as live broker pricing.
