Account Selection Guide

Which Exness Account Type Is Right for You?

Selecting the right account depends on your trading experience, capital size, strategy style, and goals. Use this guide to find your perfect match.

New to Trading

Standard

Recommended: Standard Account — commission-free with floating spreads from 0.3 pips and a $10 minimum deposit.

The Standard Account is the most beginner-friendly choice. You can start with just $10, trade commission-free, and get used to live market conditions without worrying about per-lot fees.

Testing Strategies

Standard Cent

Recommended: Standard Cent Account — trade in cent lots with the same $10 minimum deposit.

The Cent Account lets you test new strategies with real money but at 1/100th the risk. A $10 balance behaves like $1,000 in cents, making it ideal for strategy validation.

Experienced Trader

Pro

Recommended: Pro Account — instant execution with spreads from 0.1 pips and no commission.

Pro Accounts deliver the tightest spreads among commission-free options, with instant execution that eliminates requotes. Perfect for traders who execute high volumes and need reliable fill quality.

Scalper / Algo Trader

Raw Spread

Recommended: Raw Spread Account — raw interbank spreads from 0.0 pips with $3.50 per lot commission.

Raw Spread offers the tightest pricing on the market. The transparent commission model makes total cost predictable, which is critical for scalping strategies that rely on razor-thin margins.

Trading Experience

Beginners benefit from commission-free simplicity. Advanced traders need tighter spreads and faster execution for precision.

Trading Frequency

High-frequency traders should prioritize Raw Spread or Pro for lowest cost per trade. Casual traders can use Standard accounts.

Trading Strategy

Scalpers and EAs need 0.0 pip spreads. Swing traders and position traders care more about swap-free options and margin flexibility.

Exness Account Types — Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers to the most common questions about choosing, opening, and managing Exness trading accounts.

The Standard Account is best for beginners because it requires only a $10 minimum deposit, charges zero commission, and uses simple floating spreads. New traders can focus on learning market dynamics without worrying about per-lot fees. Once comfortable, many beginners upgrade to a Pro Account for tighter spreads.

Yes. Within your Exness Personal Area, you can open multiple accounts of different types under the same profile. You can add a Standard Cent account for testing, a Raw Spread account for scalping, and a Pro account for swing trading — all linked to one login. Switching between them is instant.

Both accounts share the same trading conditions, leverage, and instruments. The only difference is lot denomination: on a Cent Account, 1 lot equals 0.01 standard lots. This means a $10 deposit behaves like $1,000 in cent terms, letting you practice with real money at 1/100th the risk. It is ideal for beginners and strategy testing.

No. Exness is transparent about all costs. Standard and Pro accounts have no commission — only the spread. Raw Spread accounts display the spread plus a fixed $3.50/lot commission. There are no deposit fees, no inactivity fees, no withdrawal fees from Exness side, and no account maintenance charges.

For oil CFD trading, the Raw Spread Account offers the tightest pricing with raw spreads from 0.03 pips on USOIL. The Pro Account is the next best option with spreads from 0.1 pips and no commission. Both accounts support 1:Unlimited leverage and instant execution, making them ideal for volatile oil markets.

Yes, all four account types — Standard, Standard Cent, Pro, and Raw Spread — support Exness Swap-Free program. This allows you to hold positions overnight without paying or earning swap interest. Swap-free status can be applied to individual accounts within your Personal Area.

All Exness account types offer leverage up to 1:Unlimited, depending on your account equity and regulatory restrictions. Dynamic leverage adjusts automatically based on your position size — larger positions receive proportionally lower leverage as a risk protection measure. This applies consistently across Standard, Cent, Pro, and Raw Spread accounts.

Yes, Expert Advisors and automated trading strategies work on all Exness account types through MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. However, the Raw Spread Account is generally recommended for EAs because its consistent 0.0-pip spreads during liquid hours produce backtest results that most closely match live performance.
