How We Calculate Your Costs
Spread Cost
We multiply the broker's spread (in pips) by your lot size and trading volume. For EUR/USD, 1 pip = $10 per standard lot.
Commission
Some brokers charge a per-lot commission on top of spreads. We add this to give you the true total cost.
Style Multiplier
Scalpers make more trades than swing traders with the same volume. We adjust for actual trade frequency.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does trading style matter?
A scalper trading 20 lots might make 100+ trades, while a swing trader does 5-10. More trades = more spread costs, even with the same volume.
Are these spreads accurate?
We use typical spreads during normal market hours. Spreads can widen during news events or low liquidity periods.
What about overnight fees?
This calculator focuses on trading costs. Swap/overnight fees vary by position direction and are additional costs for positions held overnight.
Which broker do you recommend?
It depends on your profile! Our calculator shows you the best fit. For most traders, AvaTrade offers the best balance of costs, features, and bonuses.
