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 Ultra ECN as a specialized account rather than an automatic upgrade for every Prime ECN user. It reduces the recorded spread range to 0.0–0.2 pips and commission to $2 per lot, but the minimum deposit rises to $20,000. Its value is therefore most relevant to professionals or money managers whose trading requirements and volume can justify the substantially higher capital threshold.

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

  • ✓Tightest recorded spread range among our Moneta accounts at 0.0–0.2 pips
  • ✓Recorded average spread is 0.1 pip
  • ✓Recorded $2 per-lot commission is lower than Prime ECN
  • ✓Categorized for professional traders, money managers and larger accounts
  • ✓Uses ECN Execution according to the account 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

  • !The $20,000 minimum deposit is substantially higher than the other Moneta accounts
  • !A separate trading commission still applies despite being lower than Prime ECN
  • !A spread starting from 0.0 does not mean trading is cost-free
  • !The account serves a more specialized segment and is not designed around a low entry requirement

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?

  • •Professional traders according to Broker Alarab account categorization
  • •Money managers and larger account holders
  • •Users able to meet the $20,000 minimum deposit requirement
  • •Traders who may benefit from lower commission and a tighter spread range at larger trading volumes

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

Why Does Moneta Ultra ECN Require a $20,000 Deposit?

The minimum deposit recorded by Broker Alarab for Ultra ECN is $20,000, compared with $50 for Direct STP and Prime ECN. The account therefore occupies a substantially different capital tier, consistent with its categorization for professionals, money managers and larger accounts. The figure represents an account requirement rather than a recommendation for suitable trading capital.

Moneta Ultra ECN vs Prime ECN: Spread and Commission

Ultra ECN has recorded spreads of 0.0–0.2 pips with a $2 per-lot commission, while Prime ECN has 0.0–0.3 pip spreads and a $6 per-lot commission. Both use ECN Execution, but the major difference is the minimum deposit: $20,000 for Ultra versus $50 for Prime. A meaningful comparison should therefore include both capital requirements and trading costs.

Is Moneta Ultra ECN Designed for Larger Accounts?

Broker Alarab data categorizes Ultra ECN for professional traders, money managers and larger accounts. This aligns with the recorded $20,000 minimum deposit and pricing structure of a $2 per-lot commission with 0.0–0.2 pip spreads. Account suitability, however, depends on actual trading requirements and volume rather than simply meeting the minimum deposit.

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 Ultra ECN account

The minimum deposit is $20,000

This is the Ultra ECN requirement recorded by Broker Alarab, substantially higher than Direct STP and Prime ECN, and it is not a recommendation for suitable trading capital.

The recorded commission is $2 per lot

The commission is lower than Prime ECN in our data but remains a separate trading-cost component that should be considered with the spread.

Recorded spreads range from 0.0–0.2 pips

The recorded average is 0.1 pip, and the 0.0-pip starting point does not mean cost-free trading because a separate commission applies.
