FAQ

What are spreads?
Spreads refer to the difference between bid and ask prices. For example, a spread of 2 on AUD/USD represents a 0.00002 difference between the buy and ask prices. Understanding spreads is extremely important in determining your PnL per trade, especially when you’re executing market orders.
Why are spreads so important to trading?
Spreads are key to successful trading in the forex market is that they determine your trading costs. The wider the spread, the more you need your instrument to move in your favour in order to break even. For example, if there is a 10 pip spread, your instruments needs to move 10 pips to hit a break even cost. This also affects your stop-losses. Essentially, the bigger the spread the more you will have to pay in order to open a position. This means that if you are trading with narrow spreads (as you will with Fusion Markets), you're trading costs are lower.

What causes spread spikes?
There are a few reasons why spreads may spike during certain periods. The most common being when liquidity is scarce, such as on big economic or government announcements such as company earnings reports or central bank policy updates. Another common reason you may see spikes is on public holidays where providers will withdraw some liquidity from the market. It’s important to note that spread spikes are temporary and will eventually recover back to their average.
