Commissions

Commissions on Raw Spread are charged per side - once when you open a position and once when you close it.

  • Forex and Metals - from $1.5 per lot per side

  • Commodities - from $2 per lot per side

  • Indices - from $2 per lot per side

  • Crypto - from $0.05 per lot per side

  • Stocks - 0.05% of the trade value per lot per side

Commission calculation

1) Instruments with commission “per lot” (Forex, Metals, Commodities, Indices, Crypto)

  • Commission for opening = Lot size × Commission per 1 lot × Number of sides

  • Commission for closing = Lot size × Commission per 1 lot × Number of sides

  • Total commission = Commission for opening + Commission for closing

Note: in calculator, opening and closing are shown separately (one side each). If you need the full round-turn cost, sum both values.

Example (Forex): EURUSD, 1.00 lot, commission $1.5 per lot per side

  • Opening = 1.00 × 1.5 = $1.50

  • Closing = 1.00 × 1.5 = $1.50

  • Total = $3.00


2) Stocks (percentage-based commission)

For stocks, commission is calculated from the trade value:

  • Trade value = (Bid + Ask) / 2

  • Commission per side = Trade value × Lot size × 0.05%

Example (stocks): Bid 100.00, Ask 100.10, lot size 2.00

  • Trade value = (100.00 + 100.10) / 2 = 100.05

  • Commission per side = 100.05 × 2.00 × 0.0005 = 0.10005 (about $0.10)


Minimum commission rule

If the calculated commission is less than $0.01, the minimum charged commission is $0.01.
