Broker-published leverage for this entity
- Up to 1:500 (Standard and ECN) · retailsource
Regulator rules are quoted from official pages in our reference set (checked 2 Nov 2026); broker statements are the broker’s own and often apply to one entity or website only. Which entity holds your account is named in your client agreement.
05 / Accounts and costs
Accounts and costs. 4 account rows.
Account terms as the broker publishes them, the EUR/USD floor where the text allows a computation, leverage per entity, fees and payment rails.
Floor = advertised EUR/USD spread × USD 10 per pip + commission for both sides, per 100,000 EUR lot. Advertised “from” or average spreads are the broker’s own figures, not measured spreads; real costs are higher when spreads widen.
