Cent account in Forex is a trading account that measures balance in cents instead of dollars. Cent accounts maintain the balance in the lowest fungible form of a currency allowing trade with much smaller lot sizes of a currency pair. A Cent Account is very similar to a regular Forex Account, in a sense, with the main difference in the nominal fund.
Cent accounts are very popular among novice traders who look for less risky ways to trade. More experienced traders also pay attention to this account type for trade testing purposes.
Usually, the minimum deposit is quite small for Cent Accounts and may require only 100$ or lower as a start, however within a low-risk trading environment consider the demanding minimum transaction volume. Read more about Cent Account via Wikipedia.
