FxPro Raw+ Account (United Arab Emirates)
The FxPro Raw+ account: raw spreads from 0.0 pips plus a commission, built for active traders and scalpers.
Open FxPro Account →The FxPro Raw+ account splits the cost of a trade into a part you can price in advance and a part you cannot. According to FxPro it quotes raw spreads from 0.0 pips on major pairs and charges $3.50 per lot per side in place of a wider spread — and that commission is the fixed leg: a set amount per lot, which on a dirham-funded dollar account is a set local amount too, because the dirham is held at a fixed rate against the dollar. The variable leg is the spread, which moves with liquidity through the day. The Standard account reverses the split, folding everything into a wider all-in spread with no separate commission. Raw+ runs on MetaTrader 4 and cTrader offers a similar raw-pricing model, so the real choice is how much of your bill you want to be knowable before the order goes in.
What Raw+ actually delivers (measured)
What the Raw+ account actually delivered when we measured it on FxPro’s own MT5 feed:
- EUR/USD measured at a 0.2-pip median spread and about $9.00 all-in per standard lot.
- That breaks even in 0.9 pips, and the spread measured perfectly stable (stability ratio 1) — tight and steady enough to scalp.
- Across the majors the measured spread sat at or below an independent interbank reference feed (EUR/USD −0.1, AUD/USD −0.5, USD/CAD −0.7 pips).
- Market orders in our test filled in about 78 to 99 milliseconds with near-zero slippage and no rejects.
- Raw+ commission is tiered by order size, with a minimum on the smallest size:
| Order size | Commission (Raw+) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 lot | $4.00 per side |
| 0.1 lot | $3.50 per side |
| 1.0 lot | $3.50 per side |

The fixed leg and the variable leg
Raw+ is best read as two lines rather than one price. The commission is a set amount per lot per side and behaves like a term of the account: it does not widen at the rollover, it does not react to a release, and it is the same figure on a quiet Monday as on a busy Thursday. The spread is the opposite — a measurement of the market at the moment your order goes in, tight in the deep hours and wider in the thin ones.
That split is what makes the account plannable from a currency whose rate against the dollar is itself fixed. Two of the three unknowns a trader usually carries — the exchange rate and the commission — are settled before anything is opened. The one that remains is the spread, and the measured record of how it behaves through the day is on our live spreads page.
Funding an account whose price list is in dollars
Every figure on this page is quoted in the account currency: the commission per side, the all-in cost for one lot, the cash value of the spread. Funding that account from a dirham balance is a lighter arrangement than it sounds, because there is no floating rate between the two — the number you planned with and the number you are charged keep the same relationship for as long as the arrangement holds.
The part of the chain that genuinely varies is the sender. A card issuer or a bank can apply a fee, or a margin of its own, on the transfer itself. It is worth establishing that once, before the first deposit, because between a local balance and a dollar-denominated one it is the only element that is not fixed by somebody's published terms.
Where a fixed commission stops being the whole answer
A predictable bill is not automatically a small one. Below a certain level of activity the spread saving never catches up with the commission, and on instruments where the Standard spread is already tight there is little gap to cross in the first place. That comparison turns on volume and on instrument, and it reads exactly the same in dirhams as in dollars — one of the few decisions a fixed currency link leaves entirely untouched.
Two further lines sit outside the commission altogether. A position held past the daily rollover picks up swap, which is measured per instrument and per direction on our swap rates page. And what a point is actually worth depends on the contract behind the instrument, which is read from the live specification on trading conditions.

What traders report
Nobody in this set came to Raw+ for excitement — they came with a calculator. One trader says the whole point is saving on spread, and keeps the cost calculator open before sizing a position; another rates the spreads as acceptable rather than remarkable and puts the platforms and tools first; a third trades ETFs only and stayed for the way those are priced. Three cost decisions on three different instrument sets, which is roughly how Raw+ gets judged.
