The Four Components of Costs
The final cost of a trade is affected by the spread, the commission per side, the swap for holding a position overnight, and currency conversion. These are separate line items, and they do not automatically add up to a single number: the spread is built into the price, the commission is charged separately, the swap is credited or debited when a position is rolled over, and conversion occurs when transferring between a Wallet and a trading account with different currencies.
Comparing accounts on the platforms and accounts page lists Standard, Raw+, Elite, and cTrader. These are different pricing models, so figures from one account cannot be carried over to another.
Below is not a price list, but a verification procedure: what assumptions each line item has and where to find confirmation for your account.
Spread: “from zero” does not equal zero
In the observed global table for Raw+, the spread for major currency pairs is listed as “from zero.” An important caveat: this is a starting value, not a guaranteed execution cost. In a real session, the spread widens. on news, in thin markets, at the weekly open, before the Friday close.
Practical takeaway: if you plan frequent trades, calculate not by the best spread in the table, but by the typical spread for your trading hours. It is useful to keep the specification of the specific instrument in front of you: a micro lot starts at 0.01 for applicable instruments, but this affects volume, not the spread itself.
What to check before a trade
- Account type (Standard, Raw+, Elite, cTrader). they have different models.
- Instrument: FX, metals, indices, and cryptocurrencies behave differently.
- Session time in your time zone.
- Check the current spread against Bid and Ask prices in the terminal. The specification describes the instrument's parameters.
The spread in the table is a benchmark for comparing accounts with each other, not a promise of the entry price.
Commission per Side: Raw+ and cTrader Are Calculated Separately
In the observed global Raw+ table, the commission for major currency pairs is listed as USD 3.50 per lot per side. This means: the commission is charged on opening and separately on closing, so the total for the trade is roughly double that amount.
For cTrader, the commission for FX and metals is listed as USD 35 per USD 1 million turnover, and both sides of the trade. opening and closing. are also counted separately. This is not the same as USD 3.50 per lot: the calculation methods differ, and comparing them directly without conversion is not valid.
Both figures are part of the official published description, but they do not replace your account specification. The commission per side may depend on the instrument group and on exactly how turnover is counted in your account.
How to calculate with an example
If on Raw+ you open and close one standard lot, the approximate commission is about two times USD 3.50, plus the spread at entry and exit. This is an illustration of the calculation order, not a final amount: the total depends on the instrument and actual execution prices.
The commission does not replace the spread and is not built into it: it is a separate line in the trade report.
Swap: holding a position overnight
A swap is a credit or debit for holding an open position to the next day. It is not included in the spread and is not included in the commission per side, so for long-held positions the swap can exceed all other costs of the trade.
It is important not to mix sources here. There are promotional mentions of “zero swap,” but swap tables also already exist. these are different materials, and they do not always agree. If you hold a position for more than a day, rely on the swap table for the specific instrument, not on general wording in marketing descriptions.
Separately: the swap size may differ for long and short positions. One value cannot be promised for all.
What to check yourself
- The official swap table for your instrument.
- Check the day and multiplier for multi-day swap accrual in the specification of the specific instrument.
- The specification in the terminal, where the swap is reflected in the symbol properties.
This is a check of a specific instrument, not of the overall picture for the entire account.
Currency conversion
If the currencies of the Wallet and the trading account differ, conversion may be applied when transferring between them. Before confirming a transfer, check the applicable rate and the credited amount. Direct and Wallet, the Wallet is the central funding hub, and when transferring between the Wallet and trading accounts, conversion may be applied if the currencies differ.
In practice, this means: even if the broker itself does not charge a separate “transfer fee,” the exchange rate at which the conversion takes place remains part of your costs. It is not always visible as a separate line, but it affects the final amount.
Hence a simple rule: keep the Wallet and the trading account in the same currency if this is possible for your strategy, and check exactly how the conversion rate is displayed in the transaction history.
Conversion terms depend on the country, legal entity, and available methods. this is accounting and vault, and they may differ for different clients.
Deposits and Withdrawals: Where the Fee Is Not the Broker's
According to the description of deposits and withdrawals, FxPro does not charge its own commission for deposits and withdrawals, but third-party providers, banks and currency conversion may apply their own fees. This is a significant caveat: 'no broker commission' does not mean 'no costs at all'.
Available methods and processing times depend on the country and legal entity. they are displayed after you log into the client portal. Instant withdrawal cannot be guaranteed: the request goes through internal processing, and then depends on the payment provider.
Refund order
First, recent card deposits are returned, then applicable funding via PayPal or Skrill. Outstanding refunds are reflected in the account. Only after that may alternative methods you used earlier become available.
For costs, this means: the more different methods you have used, the longer the refund chain, and each stage may involve actions by the provider.
How to Check the Numbers Against Your Account
Country and entity terms differ, so one table does not describe all accounts. Procedure:
- Open the account and platform comparison page and find your account type.
- Clarify exactly how commission is calculated in your account: per lot per side or per turnover per side.
- Check the swap table for the instrument you plan to trade.
- Make sure the account currency matches the deposit currency, otherwise conversion will be part of your costs.
- Check leverage: limits depend on the legal entity, client classification, instrument and position size. leverage cannot be described as one universal maximum.
The calculation in the official leverage example is an illustration of arithmetic, not a proposed limit. Check real values in your client portal.

FAQ
How much does one trade cost in total at FxPro?
There is no universal figure. For a position held for several hours, the total consists of the spread and the commission per side (for Raw+ and cTrader). For a position held overnight, swap is added, and when transferring between Wallet and a trading account with different currencies, conversion may occur. Calculate based on your instrument and account type.
What does “spreads from zero” mean on Raw+?
This is the starting value for major currency pairs. It does not guarantee the execution price: spreads widen during periods of low liquidity and high volatility.
How should the USD 3.50 per lot per side commission be read?
This is the commission per one standard lot, charged on opening and separately on closing. The total for a full trade is approximately twice the stated number. This applies to applicable FX instruments.
Is the cTrader commission of USD 35 per million the same thing?
No. In cTrader, the commission for FX and metals is stated per turnover (USD 35 per USD 1 million), and opening and closing are counted separately. The calculation method is different, so comparing it with USD 3.50 per lot without conversion is incorrect.
Does FxPro charge a commission for deposits and withdrawals?
According to the official description, there is no proprietary commission for deposits and withdrawals. However, third-party providers, banks, and currency conversion may apply their own costs. The procedure and available methods depend on the country and legal entity.
In what order are funds returned upon withdrawal?
Recent card deposits are returned first, then applicable funding via PayPal or Skrill, and outstanding refunds are reflected in the account. Only after that may alternative previously used methods become available.
Can conversion be avoided?
A practical way to reduce its impact is to keep the Wallet and trading account in the same currency. Check how the conversion rate is reflected in the transaction history if the currencies still differ.
Where can I see the swap for a specific instrument?
In the official swap table and in the symbol specification in the trading terminal. General statements about “zero swap” do not replace the table: these materials may differ, and it is your instrument that should be checked.
