The key differences between the Standard account and other Alpari trading accounts are:
- The most Tier Points per trade of any Alpari account
- No commission, with spreads from 1.2 pips
- A low minimum deposit of $100
The Standard account is ideal if you want the most rewards, no commission and a low first deposit. You’ll earn the most Tier Points per trade of any Alpari account, and only pay the spread when you trade.
There are no commission fees on a Standard account. You pay the spread (the difference between the buying and selling price), which starts from 1.2 pips.
Spreads can increase depending on the instrument traded, and the market conditions at the time of trade.
Trades use market execution to provide fast execution at the best available market price at the time your order is executed. The final execution price may be higher or lower than the price shown.
