traderpublic Ratings · Raw-spread brokers

Brokers with raw-spread accounts

A raw-spread account strips the broker's markup out of the quote and charges a commission instead, so "from 0.0 pips" is only half a price. The comparable number is the all-in cost: raw spread plus commission, on the same account, over the same window.

Checked: the licence trail per published record, read from each regulator's own register on the date shown, plus the perk and desk-score rows from our research desk. The spread, commission, account and deposit values are written in per broker and labelled wherever they appear — placeholders for fields our research hub does not publish yet, not checked facts about those firms.

Trading CFDs carries a high risk of losing money. Nothing on this page is advice to open an account with any firm.

Broker records we publish

Frequently asked questions

Is 0.0 pips really zero cost?

No — a raw account moves the cost into a commission per lot. Comparing a raw spread against a standard account's all-in spread makes the raw account look cheaper than it is.

Are the commissions on this page real?

No, and they are labelled. Our hub publishes no commission field yet; every figure here is written in to show the shape of the column we will fill.
