From my experience with EXANTE, it's essential to be precise about their cost structure. Unlike brokers that offer ECN accounts with raw spreads plus a clear per-lot commission, EXANTE's pricing model is structured differently. For forex trading, EXANTE offers spreads starting from 0.3 pips; these are not raw interbank spreads, and as far as I have seen, there isn’t a separate, standardized commission per lot as you might find with a typical ECN broker. Instead, costs are built into the spread itself, and EXANTE operates primarily as a market maker rather than through an ECN setup. Additionally, there is a notable €10,000 minimum deposit and a withdrawal fee of €30, which are important when considering the total cost of trading. The lack of separate account types explicitly named “ECN” or “raw spread” means it’s critical to pay close attention to the structure of their accounts and fee schedule before depositing significant funds. For me, one of the biggest considerations is transparency in fee disclosures. Based on available data, EXANTE’s commissions are integrated into the spread for most instruments rather than being an add-on per lot. Anyone considering EXANTE should reach out to their support team for the latest commission information and always review the platform’s schedule before trading, especially since regulatory status and user reports indicate there can be additional risks with this broker.
