Eightcap accounts trading conditions

It happens that the choice of account type is of great importance, because different accounts often have significantly different trading conditions. Eightcap’s account types differ only in fees. In the first case, there is a standard spread without a fee; and in the second case, there is a raw spread combined with a fee. It cannot be said that one account type is more profitable than another. Traders need to focus on their own strategic preferences. An important point is the trading platform. Eightcap offers three platforms. MT4 and MT5 are considered the most functional and are easily customizable. Iterations include desktop and mobile versions. But if a trader prefers to work through a browser, it is better to use TradingView. Also, the broker offers a lot of educational and analytical materials, and the basics are available even to unregistered users, but it is recommended to study them first.
