Are XTB spreads and fees high compared to XM or IC Markets?

XTB offers a commission-free account model, where trading costs are embedded in spreads. On major pairs like EUR/USD, spreads average 0.5–0.8 pips, which is competitive with XM and only slightly higher than raw ECN brokers like IC Markets. For equities and ETFs, XTB may charge commissions, but costs are clearly disclosed. Overnight swap fees apply to leveraged trades, as with all brokers. Independent reviews highlight XTB as cost-effective and transparent, especially for casual and swing traders.
