The Micro Account is a cent-based MT4 trading account that lets you trade smaller lot sizes using real money - but with significantly lower risk. Instead of USD or EUR, your account balance is shown in USC (US Cents) or EUC (Euro Cents), making it ideal for beginners transitioning from demo accounts and for testing Expert Advisors in a real-market environment.
Key Benefits:
- Strategy testing for EA users
- Lower financial risk for beginners
- Live market experience without high stakes
- Develop risk management skills in a real-money trading environment
- Accessible with small deposits and no commissions

How the Cent-Based system works
- USC (US Cent): 1 USC = $0.01 USD
- EUC (Euro Cent): 1 EUC = €0.01 EUR
Example: A $30 deposit appears as 3,000 USC in your account.
- Profits/losses displayed in cents (e.g., $10 profit = 1000 USC)
