FxPro Raw+ Pakistan — $3.50 a Side, but the Lot Is 100 Ounces
The FxPro Raw+ account: raw spreads from 0.0 pips plus a commission, built for active traders and scalpers.
Open FxPro Account →Raw+ splits the price of a trade into two parts, and only one of them crosses from a currency pair to a metal unchanged. According to FxPro the account shows spreads from 0.0 pips on major pairs and charges a commission of $3.50 per lot per side instead of building the cost into a wider spread. The commission is the constant — $3.50 a side whatever you trade — while the quantity it is charged on is not: one lot is 100,000 units on a major and 100 troy ounces on gold. So the same $7 round turn is the larger share of the cost on a major, where the raw spread is a fraction of a pip, and a smaller share of it on a metal, where the spread is counted in cents across a hundred ounces. Read the Raw+ bill on gold in cents an ounce and the account choice stops being a matter of habit. Raw+ runs on MetaTrader 4 and a similar raw-pricing model is available on cTrader; the Standard account has no separate commission but wider all-in spreads.
What Raw+ actually delivers (measured)
What the Raw+ account actually delivered when we measured it on FxPro’s own MT5 feed:
- EUR/USD measured at a 0.2-pip median spread and about $9.00 all-in per standard lot.
- That breaks even in 0.9 pips, and the spread measured perfectly stable (stability ratio 1) — tight and steady enough to scalp.
- Across the majors the measured spread sat at or below an independent interbank reference feed (EUR/USD −0.1, AUD/USD −0.5, USD/CAD −0.7 pips).
- Market orders in our test filled in about 78 to 99 milliseconds with near-zero slippage and no rejects.
- Raw+ commission is tiered by order size, with a minimum on the smallest size:
| Order size | Commission (Raw+) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 lot | $4.00 per side |
| 0.1 lot | $3.50 per side |
| 1.0 lot | $3.50 per side |

One commission, two different lots
A commission quoted per lot is only as meaningful as the lot. Raw+ charges $3.50 a side on every instrument, so the round turn is $7 whether the ticket is 100,000 units of a currency major or 100 troy ounces of gold. Those are not comparable quantities, which is why the same $7 behaves like the larger share of the cost on a major, where the raw spread is a fraction of a pip, and a smaller share on a metal, where each point of spread is a cent across a hundred ounces.
Converted into the metal's unit, Raw+ on gold reads as seven cents an ounce of commission on top of whatever the spread column converts to that day. That figure, rather than a pip count, is the one to hold next to the distance you expect the metal to travel.
What raw pricing changes on a metal, and what it does not
Raw pricing separates the two halves of the cost: the market's spread, which changes hour by hour, and a fixed commission, which does not. On a metal the variable half is the one to watch, because each point of widening is another dollar per standard lot rather than a fraction of one — the hourly profile on our live spreads page shows the shape of that day.
The fixed half is the easy arithmetic: $3.50 per lot per side, charged in proportion on smaller tickets, with the measured tier table showing the higher per-side rate that applies below a tenth of a lot. None of that changes when you move from a pair to a metal — only the quantity it is attached to.

What traders report
Three voices, and all three are positive — worth stating plainly, because a short set is a small sample and not a consensus. What they have in common is not the commission but everything around it: cTrader pricing, order fills that held together through high-volatility sessions, and quotes described as tight specifically on the raw account rather than across the board.
I more than satisfied with their services. FxPro spreads are truly low on their cTrader platform. They implement many convenient tools, good analytics. No issues with the execution. User friendly and informative web site.
Fast execution, and spreads are reasonable. I’m mostly trading during high volatility and the platform stays stable.
Spreads are really tight, especially with the raw account…
