What We Measured
On the Zero account, raw spreads on major pairs are among the tightest you’ll find in retail trading. In our tests as well as independent benchmarks, the EUR/USD raw spread was about 0.0 to 0.05 pips, plus the $2.25-per-side commission. To compare with a commission-free account, add about 0.9 pips to the Zero spread to get the Classic account’s all-in cost.
Make Full Width| Instrument | Typical Spread | Pricing Note | Compared with Industry Average |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | ~0.0–0.05 pips | Plus $2.25 per side commission | Lower |
| GBP/USD | ~0.13 pips | Plus $2.25 per side commission | Lower |
| AUD/USD | ~0.02 pips | Plus $2.25 per side commission | Lower |
| GBP/EUR | ~0.09 pips | Plus $2.25 per side commission | Lower |
| FTSE 100 | ~1.0 | Spread-based, no separate commission | Around average |
| Oil | ~2.0 | Spread-based | Around average |
| US Stock CFDs | from ~0.01 | Spread-based | Lower |
| Crypto CFDs | from ~0.04% | Spread-based | Lower |
These numbers change with market conditions and liquidity – something we saw firsthand in Fusion’s platforms, so use them as a guide, not a fixed quote. Spreads get wider during major news events and at session rollovers, just like with other brokers.
How The Commission Works
The spread is only part of the picture with some accounts. The Zero account charges $2.25 per side, or $4.50 for a full round trip on a standard lot of forex or metals. This is lower than many other raw-spread accounts we’ve assessed (it’s often $3.50 per side/$7 per full trip), and it’s a big reason active traders choose Fusion Markets. US stocks, crypto, and oil have no commissions and are priced through spreads instead.
On the Classic account, there’s no commission. The cost is included in a spread that starts at about 0.9 pips, so EUR/USD usually shows an all-in spread of around 0.9 to 0.92.
The Honest Cost Picture
Outside of spreads, there are a few extra costs to be aware of, and we want to highlight them so you’re not caught off guard:
- Swap fees apply to positions held overnight and are set by Fusion Markets’ liquidity providers. The platform calculators are good enough to estimate carrying costs before you open a trade. This is an important factor for swing traders.
- No inactivity fee. Dormant accounts aren’t charged, which is rarer than it should be. This is good news for very casual traders.
- No broker-side deposit or withdrawal fees, though your bank or payment provider may add their own. Pretty common at decent brokers nowadays, but still good to see.
The trading calculator in the Fusion Markets’ client area is intuitive
For active forex or CFD traders, including day and swing traders, the numbers speak for themselves. A Zero account round-trip on EUR/USD costs less than most competitors charge when you add up the spread and commission. That’s why Fusion Markets frequently stands out as one of the brokers with the lowest spreads.
