Trading Conditions on Pro Accounts
Trading with a Pro Account offers a more precise and controlled experience than other account types. The focus is on execution speed and cost-efficiency, without the burden of trading commissions. Here’s what to expect:
Feature | Exness Pro Account |
Minimum Deposit | From USD 200 |
Spreads | From 0.1 pips (variable) |
Commissions | None |
Execution Type | Instant Execution |
Leverage | Up to unlimited |
Available Platforms | MT4, MT5 |
Instruments | Forex, metals, indices, energies, stocks |
Order Types | Market, pending, stop, trailing stop |
Instant Execution Advantage
The standout feature is instant execution. This means trades are executed at the price displayed on the platform. If the price is not available due to market movement, a requote is sent. For traders relying on accuracy, especially during high-impact news releases or scalping setups, this feature plays a critical role.
Variable Spreads Without Commission
Unlike Raw Spread or Zero accounts, the Pro Account does not charge a commission per trade. Instead, it uses variable spreads, which can remain low under normal market conditions. For example, spreads on EURUSD often hover around 0.1 to 0.4 pips during liquid sessions.
How to Open a Pro Account
Opening a Pro Account is straightforward and doesn’t take more than a few minutes if documents are ready. Below is a step-by-step breakdown of the process and platform setup.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Pro Account
- Visit the official Exness website and log into your Personal Area.
- Select Open New Account, then choose Pro Account under account types.
- Choose your preferred trading platform (MT4 or MT5).
- Set your desired leverage (can be changed later).
- Choose the account currency and create a secure password.
- Fund your account with a minimum of USD 200.
- Upload required identity and address documents if not already verified.
- Once documents are approved, trading can begin.
Platform Options: MT4, MT5
Pro Accounts are available on both MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5. Here’s a quick comparison:
Feature | MetaTrader 4 (MT4) | MetaTrader 5 (MT5) |
Execution | Instant + Market Execution | Instant + Market Execution |
Hedging Support | Yes | Yes |
Netting Support | No | Yes |
Depth of Market | Limited | Available |
Indicators | 30+ Built-in | 38+ Built-in |
Timeframes | 9 | 21 |
Trading Robots | Expert Advisors (MQL4) | Expert Advisors (MQL5) |
Choose MT4 for simplicity or MT5 for more advanced charting and order types. Both platforms are supported on desktop, mobile, and web terminals.
Verification and Account Approval Time
The verification process usually takes a few business hours, depending on the quality of uploaded documents. In some cases, approval can be instant. Required documents include:
- A valid government-issued ID (passport, national ID, or driver’s license).
- Proof of address (utility bill or bank statement not older than 3 months).
Exness follows strict regulatory compliance for KYC, and once verified, users can access all features of the Pro Account without limitations.
Pros and Cons of Using a Pro Account
The Exness Pro Account is tailored for experienced traders who need fast execution, better pricing, and commission-free trading. While it offers several performance-focused advantages, it’s not suitable for everyone. Here’s a clear breakdown:
Pros:
- Zero trading commissions: All trades on the Pro Account are commission-free, meaning fewer costs on high-volume positions.
- Tighter spreads: Variable spreads can go as low as 0.1 pips on major pairs, especially during liquid market sessions.
- Instant execution: Orders are filled at the requested price or sent back with a requote — a feature important for price-sensitive strategies.
- Broad asset coverage: Includes forex, indices, energies, metals, stocks, and cryptocurrencies.
- High leverage availability: Traders can access leverage up to unlimited under certain conditions.
Cons:
- Requotes possible during volatility: Instant execution can result in requotes if the price moves before the order is filled.
- Higher minimum deposit: USD 200 is the starting requirement — not as low as the Standard account, which starts from just USD 1.
- May not suit all strategies: Some automated or ultra-fast execution systems may prefer market execution over instant.
Comparing Pro Accounts With Other Account Types
Choosing the right account depends on your trading style, budget, and expectations for spreads and execution. Here’s how the Pro Account compares to the other two most commonly used types — Standard and Zero.
Pro vs Standard
Feature | Pro Account | Standard Account |
Minimum Deposit | USD 200 | From USD 1 |
Spread | From 0.1 pips | From 0.3 pips |
Commissions | None | None |
Execution Type | Instant Execution | Market Execution |
Slippage Risk | Lower (requotes possible) | Present (no requotes) |
Target User | Skilled manual traders | Beginners and casual traders |
Pro accounts are better for traders looking to minimize trading costs and who prefer instant order execution, especially for high-volume strategies or those relying on accurate price fills. Standard accounts are better suited to newer traders who need flexibility and don’t mind slightly wider spreads.
Pro vs Zero
Feature | Pro Account | Zero Account |
Spread | From 0.1 pips (variable) | 0.0 pips on selected instruments |
Commission | No commission | Fixed commission per trade |
Execution | Instant Execution | Market Execution |
Instrument Availability | All | Limited 30+ pairs with 0 pip spread |
Ideal For | Manual trading, analysis-driven | Scalping, algorithmic trading |
Zero accounts appeal to high-frequency or scalping traders who want fixed zero spreads on specific instruments but are comfortable with commissions and slippage. Pro accounts offer more freedom and broader instrument access with zero commissions and instant execution — making them better for intraday or position trading with clear price control.
Common Strategies Used on Pro Accounts
The trading conditions of Pro Accounts — especially the low spreads and instant execution — naturally align with certain trading styles. Below are two strategies commonly used on this account type.
Scalping and Intraday Trading
Scalping requires ultra-fast execution, minimal spread, and precision in timing. While Zero accounts may seem like a better fit, the Pro Account still holds up well for scalping, especially on liquid pairs like EURUSD during peak hours. Here’s why:
- Low variable spreads (0.1–0.4 pips during London and NY sessions).
- No commission means more cost-effective frequent entries and exits.
- Instant execution provides more predictable fills (though requotes may occur in fast-moving markets).

Account Maintenance and Management Tips
Managing a Pro Account goes beyond just opening trades. With tighter spreads and no commissions, efficient maintenance can increase the effectiveness of every position. Below are key areas that require consistent attention.
Keeping Track of Margin and Leverage
Leverage can work in your favor, but it also demands caution. On a Pro Account, leverage can go up to unlimited, depending on the account balance and equity requirements.
Key tips:
- Monitor margin level constantly. If the margin level drops below the stop-out level, positions may close automatically.
- Understand dynamic leverage rules. As equity increases, maximum leverage may be adjusted automatically.
- Use the margin calculator in your Personal Area to plan trades before placing them.
Managing Drawdowns and Stop-Outs
Drawdown control is essential when trading with high leverage and tight stops.
Best practices:
- Always use stop-loss orders. This is not optional. In volatile markets, prices can move quickly.
- Apply trailing stops to protect profits once a trade is in the money.
- Avoid over-leveraging. Just because high leverage is available doesn’t mean it should be used on every trade.
- Watch for stop-out protection features. Exness offers unique protection that can delay or prevent forced closures — but this is not guaranteed in all conditions.
Withdrawal and Deposit Options for Pro Account Users
Funding and withdrawing from a Pro Account is fast and straightforward, with a wide choice of payment systems. Most withdrawals are processed automatically and within seconds — though timing depends on the method used.
Available Methods:
Category | Examples | Processing Time |
E-wallets | Skrill, Neteller, Perfect Money | Instant |
Bank Cards | Visa, Mastercard | 3–5 business days |
Crypto | Bitcoin, Tether | Up to 72 hours |
Local Transfers | Country-specific methods | Instant to 24 hours |
Notes for Pro Users
- Withdrawals are only possible to previously used deposit methods (as per standard AML policies).
- Daily and monthly limits may apply depending on the method.
- Currency conversion fees may apply if the withdrawal currency is different from your account’s base currency.
