ICM Capital Markets and Accounts

However, Transaction costs depend on the selected account. These include the ICM Direct Account, with typical spreads of 1,3 pip per EUR / USD and with the ICM Pro account, where the ranges fall to 0.9 pips for the same pair.

ICM Capital offers several trading tools. It includes point and pips calculators, daily news updates, economic calendars, and content from external suppliers such as Trading Central.

In addition to premium content, the research is different. And their default price is high compared to the new Pro Account offer, which must be ordered manually. The accounts offered here include:

• Demo account
• Standard account
• ECN account
• STP account

With these, you can use the demo accounts provided to understand what each one offers you and how you can benefit from using any of them.

Spreads and Leverage

Our ICM Capital review shows that they have to float and fixed spreads. They have variable spreads of 1.3 pips on the EUR/USD pair, ideal for the market. The fixed spreads are competitive, hitting about 1.6 on the same pair.

They do not charge commission and pays themselves using the price spreads. As for leverage, our ICM Capital review reveals that they have a maximum leverage of 1:500, which means that it is high.

The thing about leverage is that it can put a hole in your account very quickly if something goes wrong with the decisions you make. It is easy to double profits and triple losses.

Trading Accounts

Our ICM Capital review would not be complete if we did not mention the kinds of trading accounts you can get here. They include:

Standard Account

This one is for people who live outside of Europe and Mainland China. With this account, you will have access to the future, shares and commodities, and forex trading. It is also an STP account.

For this kind of account, you will get spreads that range from 1-4 pips, and among the traders, you can SWAP easily. However, with something like this, you might face a re-quote that could be a hindrance to the way you trade.

Always be careful in the decisions you make when using this account to make sure that you do not box yourself into a position that you might not be able to get out of.

Direct Account

Our ICM Capital review research shows that this account is provided for all traders, except for those in the United States. Like the standard account and the direct account, you will have access to all the future, stocks, and shares that you need.

One of the benefits is that there is no commission charged when a trader opens it with the ECN Platform.

ICM Capital Platforms

ICM Capital is a broker of MetaTrader and cTrader. As a best forex broker, they offer the popular MetaTrader 4 (MT4) package designed and developed by MetaQuotes Software Corporation.

The level of choice we see in compiling the information for this ICM Capital review, tells us that you can trade using 100% web-based platforms or choose to do it on a desktop with MT4 installed and even on mobile.

For holders of live accounts, the service offers a daily newsletter. These newsletters are from Trading Central. They provide access to the internet portal and indicator for MT4. In general, the broker's research offer, as well as the educational offer, is light and not the categories in which ICM Capital ranks well.
