TOTAL charges

The minimum commission for amateur trading

For example, let’s take stock trading on a leading US stock exchange NYSE using the MT5 Global account and the MT5 trading platform.

·  NYSE brokerage fee is USD 0.006 per share, with a minimum fee of USD 1.5.

·  When using borrowed funds (leverage), an additional fee of 0.025% per day is charged.

·  When trading on the NYSE, additional exchange and clearing fees are also charged: NSCC – USD 0.00034 per share (there is a minimum fee of USD 0.25 per order), SECFEE - 0.00001155 * position value (minimum USD 0.01). In some cases (at the request of regulators) it may be necessary to pay commissions: USD 5 for Blue Sheets and USD 10 for Fed Reference Request.

Given all of the above fees, the MT5 Global account can be called one of the most profitable types of accounts for trading.

·  Leverage – 0.75% per month.

·  Extra fee for voice orders – USD 8.

·  One-time fees at the request of regulators are similar to those indicated in the previous example – USD 5 and 10.

·  Overnight fee for a short position depends on a specific stock and varies from 0% to 9.6% per year (minimum amount is USD 5 per position).

·  Long positions with overnight leverage are a margin loan from third parties and are paid at a rate of 9% per annum + US Federal Funds Rate.

·  Deposit – USD 20 + commission of the bank.

·  Withdrawal – USD 20 + 0.0125% in other banks.
