FAQs

As the cTrader platform is designed to be a more institutional platform, it uses the standard institutional fee structure based on a charge per-million notional volume traded. The primary difference between the Classic Account and the Zero Account is that with the Zero Account, you will experience our Raw Spreads. This means you’ll need to calculate the commissions manually. You can read more about how to calculate cTrader commissions in our cTrader Commissions FAQ.
We pride ourselves on our low costs and we continue this with cTrader. Although commissions will feel very similar between MetaTrader and cTrader, there is an important difference in calculation that you need to understand to ensure you accurately account for your costs.
In MetaTrader, commissions are charged per lot. In cTrader, commissions are charged at a rate of $2.25 per $100,000 of notional volume traded (both in the base currency traded).
So, in cTrader if you trade 1 lot of EURUSD (EUR 100,000 notional value traded per side), the commission will be EUR 2.25 per side or EUR 4.5 round-turn.
However, if you trade 1 lot of AUDUSD (AUD $100,000 notional value), the commission will be AUD $2.25 (per side) or AUD $4.5 round-turn.
From the above two examples, you can see that the commissions are slightly different per-lot, because the commission charge will always be proportional to the notional volume traded rather than the lots traded. The EUR trade charges commission in Euros and the AUD trade charges commission in Australian Dollars, making the costs of the trades slightly different - these amounts would then be converted back to your account currency automatically.
Another important difference to consider is when a standard lot is not exactly 100,000 notional value for all products, such as when trading Gold or Silver.
With these instruments, you need to consider the notional value and not just the lot size. As in the above examples, when you trade US $100,000 notional value, your commission will still be US$2.25.
