Trading Costs

Transparent pricing is essential for disciplined execution. This page summarizes common trading costs and how they affect account performance.

Spread Costs

The spread is the difference between buy and sell prices and is incorporated at order entry and exit.

Commissions

Some products use a commission model, either fixed per lot or variable by product class and account type.

Overnight Financing

Leveraged positions held beyond session cut-off may incur financing adjustments based on benchmark rates and product rules.

Currency Conversion

If account base currency differs from instrument settlement currency, conversion rates and markups may apply.

Best Practice

Include total expected costs in your pre-trade plan. Review instrument specifications before opening high-frequency or overnight strategies.
