FxPro Raw+ Live Spreads — Measured, Not Advertised [Malaysia]
Real spreads we recorded on FxPro’s own MetaTrader 5 Raw+ feed — 6 instruments, 3,714,831 ticks sampled, last captured 2026-09-17. The spread you actually trade on, not a marketing ‘from 0.0’.
Open FxPro Account →Everything in the tables below is measured on FxPro's own MetaTrader 5 Raw+ feed by logging every tick, which means the release minutes are in the data too, just not where most readers look for them. The EUR/USD median in the table below is a quiet-market number, and the widening it does carry comes mainly from the 00:00 server rollover; a scheduled data print is a different kind of widening, short and sharp and tied to a clock you can read in advance. A median absorbs it almost completely, the busy-market column is where it starts to show, and the hourly profile shows which hours repeatedly host it. Spreads run tightest during the peak London and New York hours and widen in the thinner Asian hours. If you want the release windows on their own, minute by minute, they are on our news spread page.
This is the live, hour-by-hour measured spread feed (refreshed daily). For the Standard vs Raw+ cost comparison and fees, see our spreads & costs page.
Measured Raw+ spreads (pips)
| Instrument | Best (min) | Typical (median) | Busy market (p90) | At capture | Ticks sampled |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.2 | 457,098 |
| GBP/USD | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 590,492 |
| AUD/USD | 0.2 | 0.4 | 0.8 | 0.4 | 511,715 |

| USD/JPY | 0.3 | 0.3 | 0.5 | 0.3 | 717,421 |
| XAU/USD (Gold) | 15 | 15 | 19 | 15 | 972,676 |
Best = the tightest quiet-market quote we saw; Typical = the median you usually trade; Busy market = the wider spread to expect about 10% of the time (news, rollover, thin liquidity). ‘At capture’ is the live spread at the last reading. Metals such as XAU/USD use a different contract size, so their cash cost is on our gold page. Server FxPro-MT5 Demo, feed 2026.09.15 14:10:41.

Table hours are FxPro server time (about UTC+3 / EET); the highlighted guidance above is shown in MYT. Average pip spread by hour over the last 24 hours, with the worst single-tick spike. Spreads run tightest in the peak London–New York overlap and widen around the 00:00 server rollover and the thinner Asian hours — the sparkline is each instrument’s daily shape.
What it costs you per lot (Raw+)
| Instrument | Typical spread | Spread cost / lot | Commission (round turn) | All-in / lot | All-in (pips) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | 0.2 pips | $2.00 | $7.00 | $9.00 | 0.9 pips |
| GBP/USD | 0.6 pips | $6.00 | $7.00 | $13.00 | 1.3 pips |
| AUD/USD | 0.4 pips | $4.00 | $7.00 | $11.00 | 1.1 pips |
| USD/CAD | 0.4 pips | $2.87 | $7.00 | $9.87 | 1.37 pips |
| USD/JPY | 0.3 pips | $1.94 | $7.00 | $8.94 | 1.38 pips |
| XAU/USD (Gold) | 15 pips | $15.00 | $7.00 | $22.00 | 22 pips |
All-in round-turn cost for one standard lot (100,000 units): typical spread × pip value, plus the $7 Raw+ commission ($3.50 per lot per side ($7.00 round turn) on Raw+ and cTrader accounts). On a Standard account you pay a wider spread instead of that commission — see the full spreads and costs page.
Open FxPro Account →Advertised ‘from 0.0’ vs what we measured
FxPro markets Raw+ as spreads ‘from 0.0 pips’ — a best-case floor. Across our sample the tightest EUR/USD quote we recorded was 0.1 pips and the typical was 0.2 pips. That is normal: the ‘from’ figure is a floor you rarely trade on, so judge a Raw+ account by its typical spread and how far it widens under load (the p90 column), not the headline number.
How we measured this
- Recorded on FxPro's own MetaTrader 5 Raw+ account — the broker's real pricing feed, not a third-party estimate.
- Captured in-terminal by an MQL5 expert advisor that logs every tick's bid and ask, so the spread is exactly what the platform shows.
- 3,714,831 ticks across 6 instruments; the figures refresh on a schedule.
- Demo and live Raw+ share the same pricing feed, so these spreads are representative of a funded account.
Spreads are variable and widen around high-impact news and the daily rollover. Past readings do not guarantee future spreads. Last updated 2026-09-17.
Where a release hides in a median
A release window is a couple of minutes out of a session that runs around the clock, and a median is built to ignore exactly that. It reports the spread you meet most of the time, so an event lasting a handful of minutes barely shifts it, no matter how wide the quote got. That is not a flaw in the number, it is the number doing its job, but it does mean the table above cannot be read as a promise about any particular minute.
The busy-market column is the one that carries event minutes, because it is a high percentile rather than a middle. Read the median as the cost of a routine entry and the busy-market figure as the cost of an entry whose timing you did not get to choose.
A release needs three numbers, a daily table gives one
To describe what a print did to a spread you need how wide it got, how long after the release the widest quote arrived, and how long it took to come back to normal. A daily summary compresses all three into a single typical figure. That is why the release windows are published separately, minute by minute, on our news spread page: same feed, same instruments, different resolution.
The two views answer different questions. This page answers what an ordinary trade costs. That one answers what the calendar does to it.
Two widenings that look alike and are not
The hourly profile has a recurring hump at the daily rollover, when the server rolls the value date and liquidity thins out. A release peak looks similar on a chart and behaves differently in every respect that matters: it is scheduled by an outside body rather than by the server clock, it arrives and fades within a couple of minutes rather than sitting across an hour, and it lands only on the instruments that hold the currency concerned.
Both are avoidable in the same unglamorous way, by not entering at that exact moment, but only one of them is on a schedule you can print out at the start of the week.
Which column carries which market
| Column in the table above | What it describes | Do release minutes land in it? |
|---|---|---|
| Best (min) | The tightest quiet-market quote in the sample | No |
| Typical (median) | The spread you meet most of the time | Barely: an event lasts too few minutes to move a median |
| Busy market (p90) | The wider spread to expect around news, the rollover and thin liquidity | Yes, this is where they show up |
| At capture | The live spread at the last reading | Only if the reading happened to fall inside one |
