FxPro Spreads & Trading Costs (United Arab Emirates)

Real measured Raw+ spreads and cost

The median spread, all-in cost and how the spread compares with an independent interbank reference feed, measured on FxPro’s own MT5 Raw+ feed — first-hand, not advertised:

‘All-in (pips)’ is also your break-even — the move needed to cover spread plus commission. ‘vs reference’ compares our measured spread with an independent interbank reference feed over the same hours; a negative number means FxPro’s spread was tighter. The round-turn cost is about $77.1 per $1,000,000 traded on EUR/USD. This page is the Standard-vs-Raw+ cost overview; for the live, hour-by-hour measured spread feed see our live spreads page.

How much a trade costs: Standard vs Raw+

Approximate cost for a round-turn standard lot (100,000 units), in USD. Raw+ / cTrader commission is $3.50 per lot per side ($7.00 round turn) on Raw+ and cTrader accounts. Pip values and spreads are variable — confirm live figures in your platform. Last updated 2026-06-20.

Typical FxPro spreads (all instruments)

Indicative spreads. Metals and indices use different contract sizes — see our gold page for XAU/USD costs.

How a spread becomes a cost

The spread is the gap between the buy and sell price of a contract for difference (CFD). You pay it on entry: spread (in pips) × the pip value of one lot equals your cost. On a Standard account that spread is your whole trading cost; on Raw+ you pay a tighter raw spread plus the $7 round-turn commission. Compare the two on our Raw+ account, MT4 and MT5 pages.

What the fixed rate settles, and what it leaves open

The dirham has been held at a fixed rate against the US dollar since 1997, which is unusual enough to be worth using deliberately. Costs at FxPro are quoted and charged in the account currency — the spread on entry, the commission per lot per side, the swap per night — so on a dollar-denominated account each of them is one multiplication away from a local figure that will read the same in three months. A trader funding from a floating currency cannot write that figure down: the same dollar cost lands as a different local amount every time the account is topped up.

What the arrangement does not cover is the sending side. A bank branch or a card issuer can apply its own fee, or its own margin, on the transfer itself, and that is set by the institution rather than by the currency link. FxPro states that it covers deposit transfer fees on its side and asks for a minimum first deposit of $100; everything else in the funding chain belongs to your bank. It is also an arrangement rather than a law of nature, so treat it as a current condition worth confirming, not a permanent fixture.

Turning a dollar price list into a local budget

Because the currency side does not drift, the choice between Standard and Raw+ becomes arithmetic you do once. Write down how many standard lots you expect to trade in a typical month, multiply by the round-turn commission of $7.00 ($3.50 per lot per side), and you have the fixed leg of the Raw+ bill in dollars — and, at a rate that does not move, in dirhams. Then set that against the spread you would have paid for the same volume on the Standard account, using the measured medians on our live spreads page rather than the advertised floor.

The comparison flips on volume and on instrument, never on the exchange rate, which is why it survives from one month to the next. Someone who doubles their activity does not have to redo the currency part of the sum. Someone who moves from majors to metals does have to redo the rest of it, because the contract size and the value of a point change with the instrument — the specification behind each one is on our trading conditions page.

Which figures on this page expire

Two things here are live measurements rather than terms: the spread and the all-in cost built on top of it. Both are read from FxPro's own MetaTrader 5 Raw+ feed and refreshed on a schedule, so the tables above will not read identically in a week. Everything else — the commission per lot per side, the contract size, the minimum order, the currency link — is fixed by specification or by policy and holds until somebody changes it.

In practice that splits your checking into two habits. The spread is worth a look before a session, and its hour-by-hour shape sits on the live spreads page. The rest is worth reading once and keeping: the specification on trading conditions, the overnight side on swap rates. Terms can change, so confirm the current ones before you commit money to any of them.
