Please note that all our spreads are variable and dependent on the underlying market prices. In normal conditions we can usually offer our ‘minimum’ spread but these will increase when the underlying market spread widens. Market prices can widen at illiquid times of the day or when major news or economic data is released.
The ‘minimum’ spread shows the tightest spread available for any given product. The ‘average’ and ‘typical’ spread shows the average (mean) and the most common (mode) respectively in a 24 hour period. These are updated for the last trading day of each month.
