Why when I place an order I have immediatlly negative profit?

It is usually -19 - -23 dollars for a one lot.

it is because of the spread,

such as currency exchange your money in banks from dollars to euros. there is a difference between you sell dollars and buy dollars

Hello Filip,

Problem might appear because of fx pair or commodity You trade. Biggest things of that kind appear on Oil, Gold and Silver because of very big contract size + spread + leverage + commison. If You put all these thing together You will see it. I suggest to use some investor calculators available all over the web to firstly calculate all :)
