A trader operating on Forex has a chance to gain huge amounts investing insignificant funds. Although, aside from earning on Forex, the trader also pays commission. Forex market commission is a fee charged for running trading operations. It can be a commission for buy or sell trades with currencies. The main commission on Forex is a spread. Spread is a difference between the currency’s purchase and sale. Furthermore, there is a rolling commission charged daily while the trader’s trade remains open. There are commissions paid by a trader for example for funds withdrawal or order opening.

As a rule, Forex commission is a small amount of money, however, if a trader works in a short term period opening and closing several trades a day – the commission will be slightly higher.

    Normally, the commission size depends on certain factors:
  • Currency pair liquidity. Thus, for instance, popular currency pairs have much smaller trade commission than exotic ones. Mostly, the commission values between classical and exotic currency pairs may differ by a large extent.
  • The volume of executed operation also makes sense. Making a very small or, conversely, a big operation – the fee will come significantly higher.
  • A great significance for Forex commission size has market condition. In the period of macroeconomic news release, experienced traders projections – the commission size expands. Low liquidity also plays its part caused by the time of the day or year – the commission also rises.

There is a range of Forex commission or spread types. A spread can be fixed and floating, standard or for small accounts. Fixed spread is a fee staying unchanged under any conditions in the market. Floating spread – is a charge equaling to 2 points at a stable market situation, however, it can be advanced up to 40-50 points, if there are unforeseen events in the market field.
