Hedged versus netted accounts and commissions
29 Apr 2016, 03:14


I understand most brokers only offer hedged accounts. Do any offer netted?

My issue with hedge accounts is that I pay round-trip commission on both the original trade and the hedging trade. I presume this is under the control of the broker but i do not want to pay double commission just to use hedging.

At the moment i use a hedge account and use the partial-close function in ctrader but being able to have a netting account and therefore manage positions separately would be a real help.

 

Thanks.
