A position is priced against two different members of the quote at its two ends. A long is opened against the upper number and closed against the lower one; a short does the reverse. The specification fields on this page describe that crossing from both directions: how much of an instrument one lot represents, and how finely the quote is allowed to move - which is what decides how close together the two numbers are able to sit.

Order rules and account risk

  • Minimum order 0.01 lot and maximum 500 lots, in 0.01-lot steps (0.01 lot = 1,000 units on an FX major).
  • No minimum stop or limit distance (stops level 0) — you can place a stop-loss or take-profit right next to price, which suits scalping and expert advisors.
  • Margin call at 10% and stop-out at 0% margin level, as measured on the Raw+ account — confirm the live levels in your own terminal before risking capital.
  • Contract size 100,000 units per lot on FX majors and 100 oz per lot on gold.

The two ends of one position are quoted from opposite sides

An open position is one quantity with two prices attached to it, and the two prices are not taken from the same member of the quote. A long begins against the upper number of the pair and ends against the lower one; a short begins against the lower and ends against the upper. The size rules are identical at both ends - the same minimum of 0.01 lot, the same 0.01-lot step and the same ceiling of 500 lots for a single order - so what differs between opening and closing is not the quantity but which side of the quote that quantity is priced from.

One consequence is worth stating plainly, because people expect symmetry and do not get it: a long and a short opened in the same second do not start from the same number. They start from the two ends of one quote, and their two records are separated from the outset by the width of it. Neither side is being treated worse than the other. Each is simply measured against the member of the pair its own direction refers to, at the opening end and again at the closing end.

Precision decides how close the two numbers can get

The specification states how many decimal places a quote carries, and that is not a display preference. The last place is the smallest amount by which either number can change, and both members move in that same unit, so the distance between them is always a whole number of those units. A quote carrying fewer places has a coarser unit, and on a coarser unit the two numbers cannot be placed as close together as a finer quote allows them to be.

That is what makes precision a price rather than a formatting detail. The finest position the pair can take sets the floor under how narrow the quote is able to be, and the per-lot value of one increment in the table above says what a single unit of that floor comes to on 100,000 units of an FX major. Coarse quote, wide floor; fine quote, narrow floor - and an account meets that floor at both ends of every position it holds, which is where this page and the measured spread readings meet.

The specification describes the quote; the charges sit beside it

Most of the fields here describe one object from different directions: what one lot of the instrument amounts to, what one increment of its quote is worth, and the sizes in which a position may be expressed. None of them is a charge. They are the vocabulary in which the two numbers of a quote and the distance between them are written down, which is why the same fields serve a position that is being opened and the same position when it is being closed.

The charges live beside that vocabulary rather than inside it. On a raw-pricing account the written charge is a commission of $3.50 per lot per side, $7.00 for the round turn, and it does not move when the two numbers move. On a Standard account there is no such line and the two numbers are set further apart instead, from 1.2 pips on MT4. Both arrangements describe the same instrument on the same contract terms; what changes is how much of the bill is written into the distance between the pair and how much is written on a line of its own.

Raw+ writes the commission per side, so a full round turn is $7.00 per lot; a Standard account carries no commission line and sets the two numbers further apart instead.

Frequently asked questions

Which price opens a long position, and which one closes it?
A long is opened against the upper number of the quote and closed against the lower one. A short is the mirror image: it opens against the lower number and closes against the upper. The direction decides which member of the pair applies at each end.
Do a long and a short opened in the same second start from the same number?
No. They start from the two members of one quote, so their starting numbers are separated by the width of it from the first second onwards. Neither direction is treated differently; each is measured against the member its own side refers to.
What does the number of decimal places in a quote actually decide?
It sets the smallest amount by which either member of the quote can change. Both numbers move in that unit, so the distance between them is always a whole number of units, and a coarser quote cannot place the two numbers as close together as a finer one can.
Do the size rules differ between opening and closing a position?
No. The same range applies at both ends: a minimum of 0.01 lot, steps of 0.01 lot and a ceiling of 500 lots for a single order. What differs between the two ends is not the quantity but which member of the quote that quantity is priced against.
How much of an instrument does one standard lot represent?
One standard lot is 100,000 units on an FX major, and the contract table above carries the figure for each instrument listed. That quantity is what turns one increment of the quote into an amount on the account.
Is the distance between the two numbers charged as a line on this account?
It is not written as a line item. On a raw-pricing account the written item is the commission at $3.50 per lot per side, $7.00 for the round turn. On a Standard account there is no commission line and the two numbers are set further apart instead, from 1.2 pips on MT4.
Which of the two numbers does the chart in my platform draw?
By default the platform plots one member of the pair, so the series on the chart is one of the two numbers and not the pair itself. How far apart they ran is reported on our live spreads page; on this page the contract fields say what one unit of that distance is counted in.
