Trading Costs Breakdown

If you’re going to trade using leverage, and chances are you will, you’re going to need to consider a few things. The key things to think about are the spreads and any commissions we might charge. You’ll also want to think about some other potential charges, which might influence the additional fees.

Swaps

What are Swaps?

Swaps is the charge you pay for keeping any positions (past the daily cut off time) open over night.

What’s Margin?

When you trade with us, chances are you’re trading with leverage. This means you invest in a portion of the full trade up front. The portion you invest is called “margin”.

What’s Slippage?

You’re about to trade EUR USD at a price that fits your strategy, but when you open your order the price is different to the one you requested. That’s what “slippage” is.

Now, slippage on stops will unfortunately result in negative slippage, which could result in a loss. The good news is that slippage on limits could see you turn a bigger profit than you expected.

The uexo Brokerage team does its best to limit slippage, but during adverse market conditions, slippage may occur.

What’s Cashback?

At uexo we’re into giving as much back to our traders as possible. So, if you’ve signed up to receive cashback (terms & conditions apply), we’ll add funds into your account when you trade a certain amount of lots.

The joys of giving!

uexo’s Spreads & Commissions

When you trade with us, you’re charged a spread and/ or commission when you trade. Both the spread and the commission you pay are viewed as a direct charge and you’ll need to factor these charges into your trading strategy. Check out the spreads and commissions for all our instruments below.

Swaps

Swaps or Swap Fees are incurred if you hold open positions past the daily cut-off time, which at uexo is at 10pm UK time (GMT).

You’re charged a swap when there’s an interest adjustment made to your account. We do this so as to reflect the cost of funding your position.

It’s good to know that triple swap charges happen every Wednesday, and these triple swap charges are applied to any trading positions that relate to FX & Metals.

Another good point to remember is that triple swap charges happen every Friday, and these are applied to positions opened that relate to Stocks, Energies & Indices.

Our rock-bottom pricing isn’t the only reason traders are flocking to uexo.
