FxPro Spreads in Pakistan — Cents per Ounce Against Pips

Real measured Raw+ spreads and cost

The median spread, all-in cost and how the spread compares with an independent interbank reference feed, measured on FxPro’s own MT5 Raw+ feed — first-hand, not advertised:

‘All-in (pips)’ is also your break-even — the move needed to cover spread plus commission. ‘vs reference’ compares our measured spread with an independent interbank reference feed over the same hours; a negative number means FxPro’s spread was tighter. The round-turn cost is about $78 per $1,000,000 traded on EUR/USD. This page is the Standard-vs-Raw+ cost overview; for the live, hour-by-hour measured spread feed see our live spreads page.

How much a trade costs: Standard vs Raw+

Approximate cost for a round-turn standard lot (100,000 units), in USD. Raw+ / cTrader commission is $3.50 per lot per side ($7.00 round turn) on Raw+ and cTrader accounts. Pip values and spreads are variable — confirm live figures in your platform. Last updated 2026-06-20.

Typical FxPro spreads (all instruments)

Indicative spreads. Metals and indices use different contract sizes — see our gold page for XAU/USD costs.

How a spread becomes a cost

The spread is the gap between the buy and sell price of a contract for difference (CFD). You pay it on entry: spread (in pips) × the pip value of one lot equals your cost. On a Standard account that spread is your whole trading cost; on Raw+ you pay a tighter raw spread plus the $7 round-turn commission. Compare the two on our Raw+ account, MT4 and MT5 pages.

Read the metal rows in ounces, not in units

The cost tables on this page carry one footnote for every row — the all-in figure is quoted per standard lot — but a standard lot is not one thing. On a currency major it is 100,000 units of the base currency. On XAU/USD it is 100 troy ounces. The gold row therefore prices a completely different quantity from the row above it, and the two only become comparable after the metal figure is divided by a hundred and read as dollars an ounce.

The conversion is short: a spread in points multiplied by $0.01 gives dollars an ounce, and multiplied by 100 gives dollars per standard lot. Do it once with the median column above and once with the busy-market column, then add the $7 round-turn commission — seven cents an ounce — and you have the entry cost in the unit the metal is actually quoted in. Every other metal figure on the site converts the same way, because swap, slippage and stop distance are all quoted in that same cent-an-ounce point.

Keep the direction of travel in mind when you scale down as well. One hundredth of a lot is 1,000 currency units on a major but a single ounce on gold, so the smallest metal ticket you can place carries the cost of one ounce of metal. The exact limits are in the measured contract specifications.

Where the currency habit produces a wrong number

Three calculations break when a metal is dropped into them unchanged. The first is the headline comparison: a two-figure point count next to a fraction of a pip looks like a catastrophe until both are money, at which point the difference is dollars per lot rather than orders of magnitude. The second is the stop distance: a hundred points is ten pips and about ten dollars per lot on EUR/USD, and a full dollar an ounce — a hundred dollars per standard lot — on gold. The third is position value, which decides your margin and is worked through on the margin calculator page.

The safest habit is to stop translating between instruments at all. Price the trade in the unit the instrument is quoted in — pips for the pair, cents an ounce for the metal — and convert to your account balance once, at the end.

What the spread is worth against the metal's own movement

A spread only means something against the distance an instrument travels while you hold it. The contract-values table on our margin calculator page carries an average daily range for each instrument in that instrument's own points: tens of pips for a currency major, thousands of points for gold. Measured against those ranges, the metal's all-in cost is a smaller share of a normal session than its point count implies — the wider-looking spread is not automatically the more expensive one to trade.

This is also why a metal position needs its own risk arithmetic rather than an inherited one. The same distance in points buys far less protection on gold, and the same cash stop sits much closer to price. Size the stop from the metal's measured range and the metal's point value, not from the number you are used to on a pair.
