​

What is the spread?

The spread, or the bid-ask spread, is the difference between the sell (bid) and buy (ask) prices of an asset. The ask is always higher than the bid. The spread is essentially the fee you pay for trading an asset.

Example

  • You want to trade EUR/USD
  • The bid price for the pair is 1.0552
  • The ask price is 1.0546
  • The spread is 0.0006 or 0.6 pips

How is the swap fee calculated?

You can calculate how much interest you’ll pay or earn when keeping a position open overnight by using the formulas below.

The formula:

  • Swap Rate (%) x Asset Price x Amount (position size)

Forex CFD example

  • Asset: EUR/USD
  • Asset price: 1.08
  • Amount: 100,000
  • 24h Swap fee: 0.0011%
  • 0.0011% x 1.08 x 100,000 = 1.188 USD
  • The account will be charged 1.188 USD every 24 hours at 00:00 UTC for the open position of 100,000 in EURUSD

Other things to consider

There’s more to think about than just spreads, commission, and overnight fees when assessing your potential profitability. Below are a few more things to consider.

  • Volatility

    How volatile a market is affects how quickly the price of assets can change, so be prepared.

  • Margin

    The required margin is different for each trade, so make sure your account is appropriately funded.

  • Leverage

    Higher leverage can help increase profitability, but can involve more risk, and needs to be managed.
