The monthly trading volume is the sum of all transactions in terms of notional volume in USD for a given month.

For example, if you trade 50,000,000 EUR / USD in one month at a rate of 1.20, your theoretical volume would be around 60,000,000 units of currency.

Since your monthly trading volume is greater than 50 million, if your equity is greater than $ 25,000 for any given month, the fee per side per million would be $ 30 for trading on major currency pairs.

The fee can be reduced to $ 25 per side per million for trading on major currency pairs if the monthly trading volume is greater than 150 million.

If your trading volume is over 500 million, please contact FXCM.

For the commission on other non-major currency pairs, please refer to the standard rate table for details.
