It combines 0.0–0.1 pip spreads with a $1-per-lot commission, a $200 minimum deposit and Market Execution. This pricing structure makes Raw Pro+ particularly relevant to traders comparing it with Raw Pro and Raw Spread as trading volume increases.

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 OneRoyal ECN as an interesting combination for active traders: 0.0–0.3 pip spreads and a $5 minimum deposit, but with a $3.5-per-lot commission. Because its minimum deposit matches Classic, choosing ECN is primarily a pricing and trading-style decision rather than a capital-access decision. Commission should therefore be measured against the spread savings at actual trading volume.

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

  • ✓Spreads range from 0.0–0.3 pips according to Broker Alarab data
  • ✓Minimum deposit is just $5 despite using an ECN pricing structure
  • ✓Defined commission of $3.5 per lot according to our data
  • ✓Categorized for active forex traders
  • ✓Provides substantially tighter spreads than Classic without increasing the minimum deposit

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

  • !Carries a $3.5-per-lot trading commission
  • !A spread starting at 0.0 does not mean a cost-free transaction
  • !Traders need to combine spread and commission to estimate effective trading cost
  • !Lower-frequency traders may prefer the simpler commission-free Classic pricing model

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?

  • •Active forex traders who place a high priority on tight spreads
  • •Frequent traders who closely monitor entry and exit costs
  • •Traders who prefer an ECN pricing model and accept a separate per-lot commission
  • •Users seeking tighter spreads than Classic without a higher minimum deposit

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

OneRoyal ECN vs Classic: What Is the Difference in Cost?

The main difference between the two accounts is how trading costs are structured rather than the minimum deposit, because both start at $5 according to Broker Alarab data. Classic uses a 1.4–1.8 pip spread range with no separate commission, while ECN narrows spreads to 0.0–0.3 pips and charges $3.5 per lot. It is therefore not enough to call ECN cheaper because of its spread or Classic cheaper because it has no commission. Traders should apply both the spread difference and commission to their expected lot size and transaction frequency.

Is OneRoyal ECN Suitable for Active Forex Trading?

Broker Alarab categorizes ECN for active forex traders, and its 0.0–0.3 pip spread range makes it particularly relevant to users making frequent entries and exits. Higher activity also means the $3.5-per-lot commission repeats as trading volume increases. The account is therefore best evaluated by calculating how much its tighter spread may save compared with Classic and then balancing that saving against the total commission generated by actual trading volume.

OneRoyal ECN vs Prime: Do You Really Need a $5,000 Deposit?

ECN and Prime both use tight-spread pricing in our data, but their entry requirements differ substantially. ECN starts at $5 with 0.0–0.3 pip spreads and a $3.5-per-lot commission, while Prime requires $5,000 and uses 0.0–0.1 pip spreads with a $3-per-lot commission. Prime offers more specialized pricing figures, but traders should determine whether the difference in spread and commission justifies the much higher capital requirement for their actual trading size and activity.

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 OneRoyal ECN account

A spread starting at 0.0 does not mean zero cost

ECN spreads range from 0.0–0.3 pips according to our data, but the account carries a $3.5-per-lot commission. Both components should therefore be considered when calculating trading cost.

The $5 minimum does not determine suitable trading capital

The minimum deposit listed in our data is $5. This is an account requirement rather than a recommendation for capital appropriate to a strategy, leverage level, position size or risk profile.

ECN and Classic have the same entry requirement

Both accounts start at $5 according to Broker Alarab data. Traders therefore do not need a larger deposit to access ECN, making spreads, commission and trading style the more meaningful comparison factors.
