How much do repeated trading fees add up to?

At an illustrative $16 per completed one-lot trade, 20 trades cost $320. Changing the count to 240 gives a $3,840 scenario, not a forecast of actual annual charges.

This repeats the same lot size and pricing for each trade. Real spreads and trade sizes change, so compare several scenarios. Costs do not predict profits or losses.

Calculation

Spread cost = (ask − bid) × units per lot × lots × conversion. Commission = fee per side × 2 × lots. Swap = nightly rate × lots × chargeable nights. Total = (spread + commission + swap) × completed trades. Excludes slippage, market movement and other account charges.
