The FxPro X2 Bonus Offer

How to read a deposit bonus before you opt in

• A deposit bonus is credited on top of a deposit — it is not withdrawable cash until the campaign's trading-volume condition has been met.
• The volume condition is the number that matters: it sets how much you have to trade before bonus funds, and sometimes profits made with them, can be withdrawn.
• A cashback element rebates part of the trading cost already paid, so unlike bonus credit it is tied to volume you have actually traded.
• Bonus-linked accounts often carry restrictions — on leverage, on withdrawals, or on which strategies are permitted — that do not apply to a plain funded account.
• Withdrawing before the conditions are met usually forfeits the bonus, and sometimes part of the profit attributed to it.
• Exact percentages, eligibility and end dates for any current X2 campaign are set by FxPro and should be read in full in the FxPro Direct account area before opting in.

What a trading-volume condition actually costs to clear

A deposit bonus is not free money until the volume condition attached to it has been traded through, and that trading has a price. On the Raw+ pricing measured from FxPro's own MT5 feed, one lot of EUR/USD costs about $9.00 all-in — $2.00 of spread at a 0.2-pip median plus $7.00 of round-turn commission at $3.50 per lot per side. That figure is the yardstick for any bonus arithmetic.

So a condition phrased as “trade 10 lots per $100 of bonus” costs roughly $90 in transaction charges to unlock $100 of credit. Phrased as 20 lots, it costs about $180 to unlock the same $100 — more than the bonus is worth. The headline percentage matters far less than the multiplier hidden in the volume clause.

On a Standard account the sum changes again: spreads start at 1.2 pips with no separate commission, so a EUR/USD lot costs about $12 in spread alone. Same bonus, different cost to clear, purely because of how the account prices a trade.

Three clauses worth reading before accepting

The first is what the volume is measured in. Lots traded and notional value are not the same thing, and a condition written in one can be several times harder than the same-looking condition written in the other.

The second is what happens to the bonus on withdrawal. Bonus credit is usually removed if you withdraw before the condition is met, and on some campaigns any profit attributed to it goes with it.

The third is the expiry window. A condition that is comfortable over six months can force over-trading if it has to be met in thirty days — and trading faster than your method warrants is how bonus conditions turn into losses. Taking the bonus is optional; the account works the same without it.
