CFD Pro Accounts: Access, Fees, Liquidity, and Trading Modes
Summary
This FAQ describes a professional account mode for CFD trading, including eligibility, application, account configuration, fees, instrument labels, and switching restrictions. Access requires an application and manual review, with configuration tied to an individual MT5 account. Instruments in the mode carry a distinct suffix. The guide says its fee structure matches ECN mode, while its intended distinction is access to independent quote depth and dedicated liquidity rather than commission-free trading.
A comparison table outlines how ECN, STP, and Pro modes differ in fees, spreads, quote depth, access, and switching. Additional answers say that deposits and withdrawals follow standard CFD account rules and that existing balances and trading records remain after exit. The document offers no execution statistics, spread samples, slippage tests, or independent evidence that the dedicated liquidity improves fills. Its claims and availability details are platform-specific and may change.
Key ideas
