What is the ECN account at Ultima Markets?

The Ultima Markets ECN account uses a different cost model from Standard, substantially reducing the displayed spread while introducing a commission linked to trading volume. According to Broker Alarab data, ECN spreads range from 0.0–0.3 pips, commission is $5 per lot, the minimum deposit is $50 and orders use Market Execution. The key to evaluating this account is total transaction cost rather than the headline idea of spreads starting from zero. The 0.0–0.3 pip range gives ECN a clear spread advantage over Standard, which is listed at 1.0–1.5 pips, but the $5-per-lot commission becomes an essential component of every cost comparison. As trading volume changes, the impact of commission on overall expenses changes as well. The Standard comparison is particularly relevant because both accounts have a $50 minimum deposit in our data. Traders therefore do not need a higher deposit simply to access ECN pricing, making trading style a more important deciding factor. Frequent or spread-sensitive traders may find ECN especially worth evaluating, while Standard remains simpler for users who prefer not to calculate a separate commission.

Broker Alarab Analysis

Our verdict

We see Ultima Markets ECN as the more compelling option for spread-sensitive traders, especially because its $50 minimum deposit matches Standard in our data. The 0.0–0.3 pip range is attractive, but the $5-per-lot commission must always be included. The better account ultimately depends on total cost at the trader’s actual trading volume.
