I don’t know for sure, but if i need to guess this would be my guess. I think it because trading shares work different than forex and other markets. The leverage is super low (i mean compared to forex), like tens time lower, so you can’t just open big positions with small money… this mean you need much bigger account to trade proper size and cover risks. Also fees maybe bit higher, because every trade cost more when leverage is low, so overall it feel more expensive than standard or ultra low accounts, but it just part of how shares trading work, nothing tricky.
