Trading 212 trading conditions
Trading conditions vary by account, platform, legal entity and client classification. The figures below reflect the latest information available to 88 Forex Brokers and should be confirmed before trading.
Spreads and commissions
Trading 212 advertises spreads from 1.0 pips on Invest. The stated commission is $0. Typical or live pricing may be higher than the advertised minimum, particularly outside liquid trading hours or during volatile markets.
Spreads from 1.0 pips suggest an all-in account, where the broker's fee is built into the price rather than charged separately. There is usually no commission on top, which makes the cost easier to predict.
Quoted spreads are best-case figures on the most liquid pair, in normal conditions. What you actually pay widens around news and at the session open.
Trading 212 lists a minimum deposit of $0. Treat it as the cost of opening an account, not the cost of trading one - position sizing on a small balance is what tends to cause damage.
