Broker Alarab's Assessment

We see IC Markets Raw Pro+ as particularly relevant to high-volume traders because our data combines a 0.0–0.1 pip spread range with a $1-per-lot commission. Its significance is not simply the Raw label but the lower commission compared with Raw Pro and Raw Spread. As total traded lots increase, calculating cumulative cost differences becomes increasingly important.

Broker Alarab's Assessment

We see Moneta Prime ECN as clearly relevant to scalpers, EAs and active traders, with recorded spreads of 0.0–0.3 pips, a 0.1-pip average and a $50 minimum deposit. The $6 per-lot commission is an essential cost component, however, so it should be compared with Direct STP based on total trading cost rather than the spread difference alone.

Account Advantages

  • ✓Spreads range from 0.0–0.1 pips according to Broker Alarab data
  • ✓Commission is $1 per lot according to our data
  • ✓Lowest listed commission among the five IC Markets accounts in our table
  • ✓Categorized for high-volume traders
  • ✓Combines a tight spread range with lower commission than Raw Pro and Raw Spread

Account Advantages

  • ✓Recorded spreads range from 0.0–0.3 pips
  • ✓Recorded average spread is 0.1 pip
  • ✓Minimum deposit is $50
  • ✓Categorized for scalpers, EAs and active traders
  • ✓Tighter recorded spread range than Direct STP in Broker Alarab data

Disadvantages and Considerations

  • !Carries a separate per-lot commission despite being lower than the other Raw accounts
  • !A spread starting at 0.0 does not mean zero trading cost
  • !The benefit of lower commission becomes more meaningful as trading volume increases and may not matter equally to every user
  • !Traders should compare actual costs with Raw Pro and Raw Spread rather than relying on the Pro+ label

Disadvantages and Considerations

  • !A separate $6 per-lot trading commission applies
  • !A spread starting from 0.0 does not mean trading is cost-free
  • !The cumulative impact of commission increases with total trading volume
  • !Traders should compare total costs with Direct STP rather than spreads alone

Who Is This Account Suitable For?

  • •High-volume traders for whom cumulative commission becomes an important cost factor
  • •Active traders seeking a very tight listed spread range
  • •Traders comparing Raw Pro+ and Raw Pro on a per-lot cost basis
  • •Users who prefer tight-spread pricing with a separate commission instead of the Standard model

Who Is This Account Suitable For?

  • •Scalpers according to Broker Alarab account categorization
  • •EA and automated-strategy users
  • •Active traders who prioritize tighter spreads
  • •Users able to calculate the impact of per-lot commission on total trading costs

Detailed Account Analysis

IC Markets Raw Pro+ vs Raw Pro: What Is the Real Difference?

According to Broker Alarab data, both accounts share a 0.0–0.1 pip spread range, a $200 minimum deposit and Market Execution. The clear difference in our table is commission: Raw Pro+ is listed at $1 per lot compared with $1.5 per lot on Raw Pro. That difference may appear modest on a small trade but becomes increasingly meaningful as total traded lots rise. The comparison should therefore focus on volume and cumulative cost rather than spread alone.

Is IC Markets Raw Pro+ Suitable for High-Volume Trading?

Broker Alarab categorizes the account for high-volume traders, making its $1-per-lot commission particularly relevant to this use case. When a trader executes a large number of lots, commission repeats with the volume traded and relatively small per-lot differences can accumulate. Our data also lists a 0.0–0.1 pip spread range. The useful approach is to calculate total costs at expected volume rather than assuming that the lowest commission automatically makes it the best account for every trader.

Raw Pro+ vs Raw Spread: How Do the Costs Differ?

The difference in our data goes beyond the account names. Raw Pro+ uses 0.0–0.1 pip spreads with a $1-per-lot commission, while Raw Spread uses 0.0–0.3 pips with a $7-per-lot commission. Both carry a $200 minimum deposit in our table. Raw Pro+ therefore becomes particularly interesting at higher trading volumes, but the final comparison should still be based on effective trading cost and trading style rather than isolated figures.

Detailed Account Analysis

What Are the Moneta Prime ECN Spread and Commission?

The recorded Prime ECN spread ranges from 0.0–0.3 pips with a 0.1-pip average, while commission is $6 per lot according to Broker Alarab data. The account therefore cannot be evaluated using the 0.0-pip figure alone. Traders should combine spread, commission and trading volume to form a more complete view of costs.

Moneta Prime ECN for Scalping and EA Trading

Broker Alarab categorizes Prime ECN for scalpers, EAs and active traders. Its 0.0–0.3 pip recorded spread range makes the pricing structure particularly relevant to this search intent, but the $6 per-lot commission means frequent traders should calculate the cumulative commission generated by their total trading volume.

Prime ECN vs Ultra ECN: What Is the Difference?

Prime ECN starts from $50 and has recorded spreads of 0.0–0.3 pips with a $6 per-lot commission. Ultra ECN requires $20,000 but has a 0.0–0.2 pip recorded range and a $2 per-lot commission. Ultra therefore represents a substantially different capital tier, while Prime ECN remains more accessible in terms of deposit requirement.

Important details about the IC Markets Raw Pro+ account

Raw Pro+ commission is listed at $1 per lot in our data

This page uses current Broker Alarab account data, which lists a $1-per-lot commission. Commission should be combined with the spread effect when calculating effective trading cost.

The 0.0–0.1 pip range is not the complete cost

Even with a tight spread range, the account carries a separate per-lot commission. A spread that can reach 0.0 should therefore not be interpreted as cost-free trading.

Trading volume is central to evaluating Raw Pro+

We categorize the account for high-volume traders. As total traded lots increase, differences between Raw Pro+ commission and the commissions on other Raw accounts become more meaningful.

Important details about the Moneta Markets Prime ECN account

The recorded commission is $6 per lot

Commission is a separate component of Prime ECN pricing and should be calculated together with the spread and total trading volume.

0.0 pips does not mean zero cost

The recorded spread ranges from 0.0–0.3 pips with a 0.1-pip average, but the commission means trading is not cost-free.

The minimum deposit is $50

This is the account requirement recorded by Broker Alarab and is the same as Direct STP. It is not a recommendation for suitable trading capital.
