Already an IC Markets client?
Switch your partner and get the same discount
You don't need a new account. If you already trade with IC Markets — including under another partner — you can ask their Partner Department to connect your profile to our campaign. Once connected, the reduced pricing above applies to your existing Raw Spread or Standard account, on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5.
How to request it
- 1
Write to the Partner Department
Send the request to partners@ic.com. IC Markets only accepts it from the account holder, so we cannot submit it on your behalf.
- 2
Use your registered email address
Send it from the same email address registered on your IC Markets profile — that is how the Partner Department verifies who you are. A request from any other address will not be processed.
- 3
Ask to be connected to IB 94550
State clearly that you want your profile connected to IB 94550 (ForecastingStocks), and include your full name and trading account number so they can find you.
- 4
Authorize dropping any previous partner
If your profile is already linked to another partner, include your authorization to disconnect it in the same message. This is the Partner Department's own advice — without it they have to write back for permission and the transfer stalls.
- 5
Wait for their confirmation
IC Markets replies once your profile is connected. The reduced commission and spreads apply from that point on — nothing changes in your platform, positions or login.

Good to know
The decision and the timing are IC Markets' — we have no access to your account and cannot make the request for you. The same eligibility rule applies: residents of the European Union and Australia are not covered by this campaign.
Eligibility
This referral link is not available to residents of the European Union or Australia. European countries outside the EU are eligible — United Kingdom residents, for example, can sign up through this link. Visitors from the EU or Australia should sign up directly with IC Markets without using this link or code.
Trading platforms
IC Markets supports both MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5, the two most widely used trading platforms in the industry.
Copy trading
IC Social — copying other traders, and what it really costs
IC Social is IC Markets' social and copy trading app for iOS and Android. It connects to an IC MetaTrader 4 or 5 live account with your MetaTrader login, and lets you copy a signal provider automatically — or register as a provider and be copied. Leaderboards, a community feed and messaging sit alongside it.
Your size can track the ratio between the two accounts — by equity or by balance — or instead mirror the provider's size or stay fixed. On top of the proportional sizing sits a 0.1x–10x factor: at 1x you carry the provider's relative risk, at 2x twice the share of your account they risk of theirs. It scales the drawdown just as faithfully as the gain.
The app is free to download, with no platform subscription. The provider you copy may charge a performance fee of up to 50% of profits, calculated on profitable trades only and settled daily, weekly or monthly.
The normal spread and commission still applies to every replicated trade — which is where the discount above matters most, since copying multiplies how many trades you pay for.
Copy trading is not a shortcut to skill: your results diverge from the provider's through slippage, rounding and fees, and a leaderboard shows survivors rather than proof of skill. Mechanics and fees are IC Markets' and can change — confirm them there before relying on any figure. Nothing here is investment advice or a recommendation to copy any provider.
