How broker pricing works — spreads, commission, ECN and leverage explained
What we like
- Four separate platform choices, including cTrader and TradingView
- Raw pricing starts at 0.0 pips on the commission-based tier
- No minimum deposit on the Standard and Raw Spread accounts
- Licences held in Australia and Seychelles
What to watch
- Raw accounts add a per-lot commission on top of the spread
- Client protections differ sharply depending on which entity onboards you
Pricing, leverage and account availability differ by legal entity and country of residence and change frequently. Always confirm the current terms with the broker before opening an account. Trading involves risk.
How we present IC Markets' pricing
IC Markets markets its raw account as Raw Spread; we display it as ECN because it is the same pricing concept. ECN spreads start near zero but carry a commission of around $3.50 per lot per side, so total cost is spread plus commission.
Who it suits
Scalpers and algorithmic traders who need tight raw spreads and fast execution on MT4, MT5 or cTrader.
