FP Markets account types explained (2026)

FP Markets's spreads: "0.0 pips (Raw; Standard from 1.0 pips)". Its commission: "US$3 per lot per side (Raw, MT4/MT5; AU$3.50 per side under ASIC); Standard: no commission". A "from" spread is the lowest the broker shows, not what you pay most of the time. To compare two accounts fairly, add the spread cost and the round-turn commission for one lot; the cost per lot calculator does it in a few seconds.

• Fewer, longer trades: the spread matters less than swaps and simplicity; a commission-free account keeps the costs in one number.
• Many short trades: the spread is paid on every trade, so a raw-spread account with commission often costs less per lot. Check with the calculator before you decide.
• Small first account: start with the account that has the lowest minimum deposit (FP Markets: "No minimum deposit (depends on the payment method; Iress and Mottai accounts AU$1,000)") and a demo first.

FP Markets lists: MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, TradingView, Iress, Mottai. Not every account is available on every platform; FP Markets's account pages say which.

Which FP Markets company opens your account depends on where you live.
