commission is equa the demo account in micro account is 1.2 and 1 in standard account. If you
are scraper or EA this is the absolute broker for make profit because there is lowest spread.

I unfortunately don't know what style of trading you have, but if you are making trades and aiming
profit, then I don't think that a 1 pip commission can be an obstacle. I'm doing both longer term trade
