Cost per standard lot = spread in pips × $10 + round-turn commission. Brokers publish “typical”, “average” or “from” spreads; “from” figures flatter the broker.

Research notes: Accounts page gives generic 'spreads from' (Classic 1.6, Raw/TradingView Raw 0.0 pips), not EUR/USD-specific, so per-account EUR/USD spread left null. Commission: Raw $3/lot/side (=$6 RT), TradingView Raw $3.5/side (=$7 RT). Min deposit $100 'may vary by base currency'. Copy trading = 'Follower'/'Strategy provider' social trading tools on homepage. Homepage stats say 'FSC Regulated' while footer says Seychelles FSA. Footer copyright 2015-2026 and '12+ years experience' - founding year not stated. Regulation, deposits pages and FCA register returned errors (register is JS-rendered).
