Transparent pricing is part of fair trading. On this page, you’ll find the key costs you may encounter when trading with IST Markets—spreads, commissions (where applicable), overnight swaps, and currency conversion—plus our zero broker fees approach for funding and account maintenance.
No hidden charges. Costs vary by instrument and market conditions, so we keep the structure clear and easy to understand.
IST Markets does not charge broker deposit or withdrawal fees. Third-party providers (banks, card networks, payment processors, wallets) may apply their own charges.
If you keep a leveraged CFD position open overnight, an overnight charge (swap) may apply. Swaps depend on the instrument and market rates and can change over time.
Tip: Swaps matter most for swing and longer-term positions.
Currency conversion may apply when your account currency differs from your deposit/withdrawal currency. Conversion is based on prevailing market prices and the payment route used.
Your bank or payment provider may apply its own FX rate or fees outside IST Markets’ control.
Your core trading cost is typically the spread (bid/ask difference). For active traders, Raw Spread pricing combines tighter spreads with a fixed commission.
Standard pricing means your main trading cost is typically the spread (the difference between bid and ask).
| Account tier | Spreads from |
|---|---|
| Classic | 1.5 pips |
| Premium | 1.1 pips |
| VIP | 0.0 pips |
Spreads are variable and depend on market conditions and instrument liquidity.
For traders who want tighter spreads, the Raw Spread model combines low spreads with a fixed commission.
If you keep a leveraged CFD position open overnight, an overnight charge (swap) may apply. The value depends on the instrument and market rates (for example, interest-rate differentials in FX) and may vary over time.
Tip: Overnight charges matter most to swing traders and long-term positions.
If your deposit or withdrawal currency differs from your account currency, a currency conversion may apply. Conversion is based on prevailing market prices and the payment route used.
