Why a low spread matters for frequent traders
A low spread matters because you pay it on every trade, so its cost grows with how often you trade. If you scalp or day trade, our scalping guide covers how spread costs fit the strategy. TabTrade also states its 0.03-pip spread produces a one-lot round-turn spread cost of US$0.30. A raw or ECN-style account quotes a narrower spread and charges a separate commission, and a standard account builds the cost into a wider spread with no commission, so your all-in cost is the spread plus any commission.
All five brokers on this page also appear among the 18 brokers in our CFD brokers comparison, so if you want a low-spread CFD broker as well, that page compares the wider field.
Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) said on 12 July 2024: “Forex trading, except those that are carried out with banks licensed by BNM, is illegal!” The quote comes from BNM’s statement of 12 July 2024. The five brokers on this page each take Malaysian residents through companies licensed outside Malaysia, not by Malaysian regulators.
