In my experience, one of the first things I look for with any broker is their fee structure, especially regarding commissions on trading accounts. With MasterLink Securities, what stands out for me is that they do not charge any commission per lot—even on their tightest spread accounts. According to the details for their Standard, Gold, and Platinum accounts, all of which offer leverage up to 1:600, the cost structure is spread-only. The Platinum account, which offers the lowest spreads starting from 0.5 pips, still maintains a zero-commission policy. This setup can be attractive for certain trading styles, especially for those who prefer a transparent cost model where all the trading costs are included in the spread rather than additional commission charges. However, from a risk management perspective, it’s vital not to equate zero commissions with lower overall trading costs—tighter spreads on higher-tier accounts typically require larger minimum deposits, and the effective spread may fluctuate based on liquidity. I did not find any specific offering of an ECN or raw spread account by name; instead, the Platinum account—while offering spreads comparable to what some brokers market as "ECN"—still operates under a spread-only, zero-commission model. This is worth considering if you are accustomed to true ECN environments where both raw spreads and commissions apply. For me, cautious comparison with other brokers' fee structures helps me evaluate if this aligns with my trading strategy and volume.
