Frequently Asked Questions
Which prop firm has the tightest spreads?
Spreads depend on the underlying liquidity provider and instrument. cTrader-based firms typically offer tighter spreads with separate commissions. MT4/MT5 firms often build spread into the all-in cost. Compare the total round-trip cost per pip, not just the quoted spread.
Do spreads count toward the daily loss limit?
At most firms, unrealised spread costs do not count toward your daily loss. However, closing a position at a spread-wider price does count as a realised loss. For scalpers, this distinction matters significantly.
