STP Trading: accounts, fees and regulatory review

STP Trading publishes four MT5 account tiers, with Standard and Islamic starting at USD 10. The current account FAQ specifies a two-minute minimum hold for Standard and five minutes for Zero Prime, adding an important limit beyond the general 120-second clause in its December 2025 agreement. Current Mauritius/Saint Lucia disclosures still differ from additional entities named inside that agreement.

  • Published commissions are USD 6, USD 5 and from USD 3.50, but the comparison does not specify a per-lot or per-side charging basis.
  • EAs are allowed on the account grid, subject to minimum holding times and contractual strategy restrictions.
  • Mauritius GB26206302 is described as a Global Business Licence; its dealer-activity scope was not independently established.
