Browse all brokers →Higher leverage increases the size of potential losses. Availability and legal limits depend on your jurisdiction and client classification. Historical spreads may exclude commission and do not represent all-in trading costs. No live regulatory status is asserted.
The historical source does not identify account types or entities for every figure. Rather than infer current claims, this comparison clearly separates archive facts from checks you still need to make.
Not on spread alone. A raw-spread account usually adds a commission, and spreads widen around news and outside major sessions. Compare the all-in cost per trade on the account type you would actually open.
Convert everything to the same unit — cost per standard lot, round turn — and add it to the typical spread. A $3.50 per-side commission is $7 per lot round trip before spread.
Overnight swap rates, inactivity and currency-conversion fees, deposit and withdrawal charges, and minimum balance rules. These rarely appear in headline comparisons but add up over time.
Execution model, slippage handling and requotes decide whether you get the price you see. Read the broker's order execution policy and look for published fill-speed and slippage statistics.
Check which legal entity would hold your account, then confirm its licence on the regulator's own register. Protections such as compensation schemes and negative balance protection vary by entity and country.
