What you pay

Fees and costs

TopTrader offers low spreads starting from 0.1 pips on major forex pairs, making it a cost-effective choice for traders. Additionally, commissions may apply on specific accounts, particularly the ECN accounts, where tighter spreads are available in exchange for a small commission fee. Swap rates are charged for overnight positions, and they vary depending on the currency pair or instrument being traded. Traders should check the applicable swap rates on their trading platform before holding positions overnight. TopTrader charges an inactivity fee for accounts that have been dormant for a certain period. This fee ensures that inactive accounts are properly maintained while also ensuring that the platform remains optimal for active traders.
