[QUOTE="vicjon1995, post: 186192, member: 69289"] A spread is the difference between the bid and the ask price. If I put it simply it is the difference between your buying and selling price. This difference is collected by the broker. A spread can be either a fixed spread or floating spread.You can think of the spread as the trading cost for placing a position. Tighter spreads essentially enable you to reduce your trading costs thus making profits larger or losses smaller after you close your positions. When the market is more volatile, it gets more expensive to trade, since the spreads widen. This is the very reason people prefer fixed spreads or raw spreads as low as zero. [/QUOTE]
