Trading Accounts

Same execution.
Different way to pay for it.

Every CSO Markets account reaches the same liquidity and the same 250+ instruments. What changes is the cost structure — spread-only, tighter spread, or raw pricing plus commission.

Full account comparison

The honest way to read this table: lower spreads usually mean a commission somewhere else. Work out your total cost per trade, not just the headline spread.

*Indicative minimum spreads under normal market conditions, shown for comparison only. Actual spreads vary with liquidity and volatility. Maximum leverage depends on the instrument and your country of residence, and may be lower than the figure shown. Swap-free accounts may attract an administration fee on positions held for extended periods, in place of swap; details are provided during the eligibility review.

Risk-Free Practice

Start on a demo account

A demo account runs on the same platform with the same instruments, funded with virtual money. It costs nothing and there is no obligation to fund a live account afterwards.

  • Virtual balance, real platform mechanics
  • Test strategies and expert advisors safely
  • Learn order types before risking capital
  • No deposit and no card details required
Be aware of the gap. Demo trading does not reproduce live conditions such as slippage, requotes, funding delays or the emotional pressure of real money. Results on a demo account are not an indication of what you would achieve trading live.

Ready in minutes

Register with an email address and start practising immediately.

Reset any time

Top the virtual balance back up and start a fresh test whenever you want.

Switch when ready

Move to a live account from the same client portal — no second registration.

Account Opening

What the process actually involves

Identity verification is a legal requirement for every regulated financial firm. Having your documents ready makes it quick.

1

Apply online

Complete the application with your personal details and answer the suitability questions honestly — they exist to protect you.

2

Verify identity

Upload a government photo ID and a recent proof of address dated within the last three months.

3

Fund the account

Deposit by bank transfer, e-wallet or crypto. Funds must come from an account in your own name.

4

Start trading

Download your platform, log in with your credentials and place your first order.

Documents you will need: a valid passport, national ID card or driving licence, plus a utility bill or bank statement showing your name and address issued within the last three months. Third-party deposits cannot be accepted — the payment source must match the account holder.
Account Questions

Frequently asked

If you are new or trading small size, Standard keeps things simple — one number to think about. If you trade frequently, run the maths: on ECN Raw the round-turn commission is $7 per lot, so it only beats a spread-only account once your volume is high enough for the tighter spread to cover it. Our support team can walk through the comparison with you.
Yes. You can open multiple trading accounts under a single client profile — for example a Standard account for manual trading and an ECN Raw account for an automated strategy — and move funds between them internally.
You can request an upgrade or change at any time through the client portal, subject to the minimum deposit for the target account. Open positions may need to be closed before the change is applied.
Accounts can be held in USD, EUR or GBP. Choose carefully — the base currency cannot be changed after the account is opened, and deposits in another currency will be converted at the prevailing rate.
Swap-free status is granted after a short eligibility review rather than automatically, and requires the $10,000 minimum deposit. An administration fee may apply to positions held over extended periods, which replaces — and is not additional to — the standard swap.
