What is the difference between the Standard and Raw trading accounts?

Why choose the Standard trading account?

A Standard account is characterised by a commission-free pricing structure. However, spreads tend to be higher than those of a Raw account, since broker fees are built into the spread. This makes a Standard account more suitable for casual traders looking for a simpler cost structure.

Why choose the Raw trading account?

A Raw account involves commissions, while its spreads are kept lower than those of a Standard account – often as low as 0.0 pips. Because the Raw account represents the real market prices without broker markups, it becomes a more attractive option for scalpers and high-frequency traders who prefer tighter spreads.
