Does Funding Traders charge commission?

Yes. It is $3 per lot round turn on the Pro programs and $6 on Instant (Instant Funded), on all instruments except indices. On the Pro programs it applies only once funded, and the Zero Fees add-on removes it.

Are Funding Traders accounts swap free?

Not by default. Swap is charged overnight and over the weekend, and no rate table is published. Swap free trading comes only with the Zero Fees add-on, at a 15% uplift on the account price.

Which platforms can I use?

The help centre states MetaTrader 5 and TradeLocker are the only platforms offered. A marketing page also lists MetaTrader 4, cTrader and DxTrade, so the firm publishes two different lists.

Indices are 1:15 on 2 Step and 1:20 on Instant, and crypto 1:1 on 2 Step and 1:2 on Instant. For 1 Step (Pro) the firm publishes two different sets, 1:15 and 1:1 in the help centre, 1:20 and 1:2 in the terms.
