All these fees sum up and make sure that the profit from your trade is gone. You might even have to pay for the trade, even though the trade itself was profitable.

Nowadays, there exist software or robots as they are called that can do the trading for you. These software are much cheaper than a managed account and therefore they don’t have to be as profitable as the trader managing your account.
