Exness Spreads

Exness offers some of the narrowest spreads in the industry, providing low spreads not only on FX currency pairs but also on CFD instruments such as precious metals (gold, silver, etc.), energy, stock indices, and cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, etc.).Due to the nature of spreads, traders incur an unrealized loss equal to the spread amount the moment a position is opened; therefore, the narrower the spread, the more advantageous it is for traders. In particular, for trading strategies that accumulate small profits, such as scalping, spreads have a significant impact on trading results, making them a critical factor.

Exness offers trading with leverage of up to 2,000:1(*), allowing you to experience one of the industry’s most advantageous trading environments—characterized by Exness’s unique combination of “low spreads and high leverage.”

At Exness, you can trade 10 major instruments—including the nine major currency pairs popular among domestic traders and XAU/USD (gold)—at fixed spreads during 90% of trading hours, excluding periods of high market volatility.Unlike variable spreads, which fluctuate in response to price movements, the spreads for these instruments at Exness are fixed during most trading hours. This allows you to know the potential unrealized loss at the time you open a position before you even execute the trade.

However, at Exness, spreads may sometimes be lower than fixed spreads depending on market conditions, so traders can always trade at the best available spreads. For Exness Zero accounts, a commission of at least 3.5 USD (equivalent) per lot applies, but you can trade 28 major instruments with zero spreads 98% of the time.Please note that spreads are subject to change, so please check the latest figures before trading.

Exness’s Standard Account allows you to consistently trade with tight spreads at low costs and with small investment amounts, making it a recommended account type for all traders, from beginners to professionals.Compared to Exness’s three Pro account types (“Low Spread Account,” “Zero Account,” and “Pro Account”), the Standard Account has wider spreads. However, it offers spreads that are approximately 0.5 to 1.0 pips lower than the standard spreads of other brokers, and since there are no transaction fees, you can keep your trading costs low.

In addition, while the three types of Exness Pro accounts require a minimum initial deposit of 1,000 USD (or equivalent), the Standard account allows you to start trading with a minimum initial deposit of just 150 USD (or equivalent). The Exness Standard account is a versatile account type that lets you experience Exness’s high-performance trading environment—featuring stable low spreads and leverage of up to 2,000:1 (*)—at a low cost and with a small initial investment.

Exness’s Standard Cent account offers the same spreads as the Standard account, which features spreads that are approximately 0.5 to 1.0 pips tighter than the industry average. Like the Standard account, there are no transaction fees, allowing you to trade while keeping costs low.

While the Exness Standard Cent account is limited to FX currency pairs, precious metals (gold and silver), and cryptocurrencies, you can trade starting from as little as 10 units (0.01 cent lots)—a smaller minimum than other account types. Additionally, this account offers Exness’s signature high leverage of up to 2,000:1(*) and the peace of mind provided by the Zero Cut System.As a trial, you can start by trading popular instruments with small amounts and low risk on the Exness Standard Cent Account, and then switch to other account types later. The tradable instruments on the Exness Standard Cent Account are as follows.

Exness’s Low Spread account is recommended for intermediate to advanced traders, offering spreads as low as 0.0 pips—achieved through a commission structure of up to 3.5 USD (equivalent) per lot (one-way).For major currency pairs such as USD/JPY (U.S. Dollar/Japanese Yen) and EUR/USD (Euro/U.S. Dollar), we offer an average spread of "zero," and we provide consistently low spreads even for instruments where spreads tend to widen.

Trading fees are a flat rate of 3.5 USD (or equivalent) per lot for major currency pairs, and 3.5 USD (or equivalent) or less for other instruments, with fees varying by instrument. While trading fees apply to Exness’s low-spread accounts, the extremely tight spreads allow you to keep your total trading costs low. Please note that all Exness stock CFDs are commission-free, so you can trade them based solely on the spread.

Exness’s Zero Account charges a minimum transaction fee of 0.2 USD (or equivalent) per 1 lot (one-way), but it is a recommended account type for intermediate to advanced traders, as it offers zero spreads for 95% of trading hours across 28 major currency pairs. For other instruments, zero spreads are available during 50% of trading hours, so in many cases, you can trade for a minimum transaction fee of 3.5 USD (or equivalent) per instrument.Among Exness’s account types, the Zero Account is the only one that consistently offers zero spreads.

In addition, Exness’s Zero Account is ideal for high-frequency algorithmic trading using EAs (automated trading systems), as it allows you to trade a wide range of instruments with zero or ultra-low spreads. The currency pairs eligible for Exness’s zero-spread trading are as follows:

Exness’s Pro account offers commission-free trading and features even lower spreads than the Standard account, making it the ideal account type for experienced traders who want to minimize trading costs as much as possible. For example, when comparing USD/JPY (U.S. Dollar/Japanese Yen), the Pro account has spreads that are approximately 0.4 pips lower than those of the Standard account.Since both account types offer commission-free trading, the Pro Account offers a clear advantage when considering spreads alone. However, the Exness Pro Account requires a higher initial minimum deposit of 1,000 USD (or equivalent). When selecting an account type, please consider these factors and choose the one that best suits your needs. Please note that spreads are subject to change, so please check the latest figures before trading.

The spread refers to the difference between the bid price and the ask price of a tradable instrument. The narrower the spread, the shorter the time it takes to recover from an unrealized loss, which is advantageous for traders. Note that the spread is expressed in "pips" for all instruments.

Spreads at Exness vary depending on the account type: Standard, Standard Cent, Low Spread, Zero, and Pro. Please note that Exness’s “Low Spread” account charges a maximum fee of 3.5 USD (or equivalent) per side, while the “Zero” account charges a minimum fee of 3.5 USD (or equivalent) per side, so please be aware that each account type has a different fee structure.For Exness Standard Cent Accounts, the same spreads as those for Standard Accounts apply to all tradable instruments, including FX currency pairs, precious metals (gold and silver), and cryptocurrencies.
