Exness — what is capped by construction, and what is not · Pakistan

Minimum deposit applicable; may vary based on payment method or geographic location.

Which limits are fixed, and which only say where a range starts

• Negative balance protection puts a floor under the account — the recorded loss stops at the funds you deposited
• The commission line on Raw Spread is written as a ceiling (up to $3.50 / side / lot), not as a starting figure
• Spread quotes are written as floors: from 0.0 pips on the Raw Spread and Zero accounts fixes the bottom of the range and nothing above it
• Standard and Standard Cent have no minimum initial deposit, so there is no threshold to clear at the door
• Standard Cent counts positions in cent-sized lots, so an identical move on the chart moves a smaller figure against the balance
• Swap-free (Islamic) accounts remove overnight interest on eligible instruments — the word eligible is where that edge stops
• An order level placed in advance sits on the server whether or not anyone is at the terminal, on MT4, MT5, the Exness Terminal or the Exness Trade app

Short version: where the edges are

Three figures on this page stop moving the moment a tier is chosen: the commission line, the entry threshold and the lot denomination. Two never stop moving: the spread you are quoted at the second of a fill and the price a market order actually executes at. Under both sits one floor that depends on neither — the recorded loss stops at the funds placed on the account. You can also read independent Exness reviews on Trustpilot.

Numbers written as from, and numbers written as up to

The tier table on this page uses two different grammars and they mean opposite things. From 0.0 pips fixes the bottom of a range and says nothing about the top. Up to $3.50 / side / lot fixes the top and says nothing about the bottom. A reader who treats both as the price will be wrong about one of them.

This matters most on the tiers where both appear at once. Raw Spread carries a floor on the spread and a ceiling on the commission, so one component of a round turn has a known worst case and the other does not. Zero inverts the emphasis: the spread is stated at 0.0 pips on top instruments while the commission is the figure written as from.

None of this is a forecast. The two wordings are simply doing different jobs, and reading them the same way is where most cost surprises on a first live position come from.

Edges the account carries whether you name them or not

Some boundaries exist because of how the account is constructed and do not need to be switched on. Negative balance protection is one: the recorded loss stops at the funds placed on the account. The denomination on Standard Cent is another — positions are counted in cent-sized lots, so the same distance on the chart is a smaller figure against the balance.

Boundaries of this kind have one useful property: they hold when nobody is watching the screen. They are not a plan and they do not improve an entry. They stop one specific quantity from running further than the product allows, and nothing else.

The counterpart is the set of quantities with no such construction behind them. How wide a quote goes in thin liquidity, how far a fill lands from the level that was tapped, and how long a position stays open are all settled outside the account settings. Spreads may fluctuate and widen depending on liquidity, news and market conditions. Delays and slippage may occur. No guarantee of execution speed or precision.

Thresholds tested at the door, floors that only matter afterwards

The $200 minimum deposit on Pro, Raw Spread and Zero is a condition. It is tested once, on the way in, and if it is not met nothing else happens. Standard and Standard Cent have no minimum initial deposit, so for those two there is no threshold to test at all. Minimum deposit applicable; may vary based on payment method or geographic location.

A floor is the opposite kind of object. Nothing tests it on the way in; it sits unused for as long as things go normally and becomes visible only in the one case it was built for. Treating the two as the same thing produces the odd belief that clearing a threshold has bought some protection. It has not — it has opened a tier.

Written out in order, the sequence is short: a condition at the door, a handful of choices fixed at that moment, then a long stretch in which nothing is fixed, and then, in the bad case only, a floor.

Levels named in advance, levels named by what happened

A level placed before the market reaches it is a boundary named in advance: the number exists on the server whether or not anyone is at the terminal. A position closed by hand is the same decision taken from the other end — the level becomes known only once it has occurred, because it is whatever was on the screen at that second.

Neither form fixes a price. A level named in advance says where an instruction becomes active, not where the fill lands, and the distance between the two is not bounded by any account setting. That is why a level was set and that level was filled are two separate statements about the same position.

The practical consequence is dull and short: the figures worth writing down before a position exists are the ones that will stop being adjustable once it does.

Writing your edges down before the position exists

1. Note the tier you are on and copy the two figures it fixes — the commission line and the entry threshold. Both stop being variables the moment the account is open.
2. Copy the spread figure separately and label it a floor rather than a price. Of the three, it is the only one the moment can move.
3. Decide size in the denomination the tier actually uses — standard lots or cent-sized lots — so the figure in your notes and the figure in the terminal mean the same thing.
4. Name the level at which the instruction should become active and write it down before the position exists, not while it does.
5. Next to it, write in plain words what is not bounded: the fill price, the quote at that second, and the distance the market can travel between the two.
6. Check the account-level floor once and then leave it alone. It is not a setting to tune; it is simply the last thing standing between a bad session and the funds placed on the account.
