Step 1 — Choose the Right JustMarkets Account Type Before Registering
Account type selection is the most important step — it is permanent and cannot be changed after opening. You can open additional accounts of different types later, but the initial choice locks you into that account's spread, commission, and lot structure.
JustMarkets Standard Cent Account — Best for Absolute Beginners
The Standard Cent account uses cent lot sizing — 1 Cent lot equals 1,000 units of the base currency, making it 100 times smaller than a standard lot. With a $10 deposit, your balance shows as 1,000 cents, and pip values are approximately $0.01 per pip. This makes it ideal for traders transitioning from demo to live for the first time, or for testing Expert Advisors with real market execution at near-zero financial risk. Eligible for the 120% deposit bonus.
JustMarkets Standard Account — Most Popular, Commission-Free from $10
The Standard account is JustMarkets' most popular account type. It uses full lot sizing (minimum 0.01 lots), no commission, and spread-only pricing averaging 0.3–0.6 pip on EUR/USD. Suitable for swing traders, position traders, and most retail traders. The combination of $10 minimum deposit and commission-free structure makes it the lowest-friction entry point into live trading. Eligible for the 120% deposit bonus.
JustMarkets Pro Account — Tighter Spreads Without Commission from $200
The Pro account offers tighter spreads than Standard — approximately 0.1 pip on EUR/USD and 0.10 pip on XAU/USD — with zero commission. The all-in cost per standard lot on EUR/USD is approximately $1.00, making it the most cost-efficient option for active traders who hold positions for 30 minutes or longer. Minimum deposit $200. Eligible for the 120% deposit bonus.
JustMarkets Raw Spread Account — Institutional-Grade Spreads for Scalpers
Raw Spread provides direct liquidity provider pricing — spreads from 0.0 pip on EUR/USD and 0.03–0.08 pip on XAU/USD — with a fixed commission of $3 per lot per side ($6 round-turn). This is the most cost-efficient structure for high-frequency scalpers executing 10 or more standard lots per day. Minimum deposit $200. Excluded from all bonus programmes.
| Account | Min. deposit | EUR/USD spread | XAU/USD spread | Commission | Bonus eligible |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Cent | $10 | ~0.3–0.6 pip | ~0.20 pip | None | Yes — 120% |
| Standard | $10 | ~0.3–0.6 pip | ~0.20 pip | None | Yes — 120% |
| Pro | $200 | ~0.1 pip | ~0.10 pip | None | Yes — 120% |
| Raw Spread | $200 | ~0.0 pip | ~0.03–0.08 pip | $3/lot/side | No — excluded |
Step 2 — Complete the JustMarkets Registration Form
The registration form at JustMarkets takes approximately 3–5 minutes. You need only a valid email address and a password to complete the initial registration. No documents, no deposit, and no phone number are required at this stage.
Click the Open Real Account button above. You will be directed to the official JustMarkets registration form.
Use a valid email address you have ongoing access to. JustMarkets will send verification links and account credentials to this address. Avoid disposable email services.
Create a strong password with at least 8 characters combining uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. This is your Personal Area login password — different from your MT4/MT5 trading password.
Choose your country from the dropdown menu. This determines which JustMarkets regulated entity serves your account. Indonesian traders are served via FSA Seychelles (SD088).
Select Standard, Standard Cent, Pro, or Raw Spread. You can change your mind at this stage — but not after account creation. See Step 1 above for guidance.
Choose MT4 or MT5. This choice is per account — you can open a second account on the other platform later.
Click Submit. JustMarkets sends a verification email. Click the link inside to activate your Personal Area.
Step 3 — KYC Verification: Documents Required to Fully Activate Your Account
KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is required before you can withdraw funds. You can deposit and trade before verification is complete, but withdrawals are blocked until KYC is approved. Most accounts are verified within 30 minutes during business hours.
Document 1: Government-Issued Photo ID
- ✓Passport — full page showing photo, name, date of birth, and expiry date
- ✓National Identity Card — both front and back sides
- ✓Driver's licence — both front and back sides if name and address appear on back
- ✓Document must be valid (not expired) and show your face clearly
- ✓Scans or photos are accepted — ensure full document is visible with no cutoffs
Document 2: Proof of Address
- ✓Utility bill — electricity, water, gas, or internet — dated within last 3 months
- ✓Bank statement dated within last 3 months
- ✓Official government letter with your name and address
- ✓Must show your full legal name and residential address
- ✓PO Box addresses are not accepted
Document 3: Selfie with ID (Some Regions)
Some regions require a selfie photograph showing you holding your photo ID next to your face. JustMarkets will notify you via your Personal Area if this is required for your country. If not requested, you do not need to submit this document.
Step 4 — Activate Your Bonus Before Depositing
This step is critical and commonly missed. The JustMarkets 120% deposit bonus cannot be applied to deposits already made — it must be activated in your Personal Area before you send funds.
Go to justmarkets.com and log in with your email and password.
Find the Promotions tab in the left menu or dashboard navigation.
The 120% deposit bonus and the $30 no-deposit credit (where available) appear here. Raw Spread account holders will not see the bonus — it is excluded.
Tap or click Activate. The bonus is now linked to your account and will be credited automatically after your next deposit.
After activation, make your deposit. The 120% bonus is added automatically. You do not need to enter a coupon code.
Step 5 — Make Your First Deposit at JustMarkets
After activating the bonus (if applicable), go to Funds → Deposit in your Personal Area. Choose your payment method and enter your deposit amount. Minimum: $10 for Standard and Cent accounts; $200 for Pro and Raw Spread.
| Method | Minimum | Processing time | JustMarkets fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| USDT TRC20 | $10 | Instant | Free |
| Visa / Mastercard | $10 | Instant | Free |
| Skrill / Neteller | $10 | Instant | Free |
| FasaPay / SticPay | $10 | Instant | Free |
| Local bank (Indonesia, MY, etc.) | $10 | Instant to 1 business day | Free |
| Bank wire transfer | $10 | 1–3 business days | Free |
Step 6 — Download MT4 or MT5 and Log In to JustMarkets
After depositing, download your chosen trading platform and log in using the credentials sent to your email when the account was created.
From the JustMarkets website under Platforms, or from App Store (iOS) / Google Play (Android). Both are free for all account holders.
On desktop: File → Login to Trade Account. On mobile: tap the account icon.
This is the numeric trading account ID (not your email). Found in your Personal Area under account details and in the credentials email.
This is the trading password from the credentials email — different from your Personal Area login password.
Type JustMarkets in the server search. Select the server matching the one shown in your Personal Area account details.
Step 7 — Place Your First Trade on JustMarkets
With your account funded and platform connected, you are ready to trade. In MT4 or MT5, find the instrument you want to trade in the Market Watch panel (usually on the left side). Right-click the instrument and select New Order, or double-click to open the order dialog.
- ✓Market order: Executes immediately at the current market price
- ✓Pending order: Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Buy Stop, Sell Stop — executes when price reaches your specified level
- ✓Lot size: Start with 0.01 lots (micro lot) to minimize risk while learning
- ✓Stop Loss: Always set a Stop Loss to define your maximum loss before entering
- ✓Take Profit: Optional — sets automatic profit-taking at a target price
Common Issues When Opening a JustMarkets Account — and How to Fix Them
Email verification link not working
If the verification email link does not work, check your spam folder first. If it is not there, log in to JustMarkets and request a new verification email from the account settings page. Links expire after 24 hours.
KYC documents rejected
Common rejection reasons: document is expired, edges are cut off in the photo, text is blurry or unreadable, or the proof of address is older than 3 months. Retake the document photo in good lighting with the full document in frame. Bank statements should be the most recent monthly statement.
Cannot find JustMarkets server in MT4/MT5
In MT4, click File → Login to Trade Account → click the server dropdown → type JustMarkets in the search field. If no results appear, your MT4 installation may not have the JustMarkets server list. Download the MT4 installer directly from the JustMarkets website — it comes pre-configured with the correct server addresses.
Bonus not credited after deposit
The bonus must be activated in the Promotions tab BEFORE the deposit — it cannot be applied retroactively. If you deposited before activating, the bonus will not be credited for that deposit. Activate the bonus in Promotions, then make a new deposit — the bonus will apply to the new deposit.
