Broker fees and trading costs compared
The cost of a trade is made up of more than one number. Depending on the broker, account type and instrument, it may include the spread, a separate commission and other broker-specific charges. This comparison therefore looks at several pricing fields instead of ranking brokers by a single headline fee.
Compare Deriv and Pepperstone by forex spreads, gold spreads and commissions for forex, indices, crypto and shares. You can also review minimum deposits and maximum leverage, which may affect which account or strategy suits you.
Beyond pricing, the table shows regulation, broker country, supported base currencies, available asset classes and demo account access. Where available, it also shows whether each broker supports crypto deposits and withdrawals.
Because both brokers use cTrader, the comparison also covers platform features that are hard to compare across unrelated platforms: support of cTrader Copy, algo trading with cBots, cTrader Store bonuses and current broker promotions.
A broker may be more competitive in one market or use case and offer different conditions elsewhere, so review the individual values above rather than relying on a single fee.
