The maximum and average spreads in three different time ranges – last hour, 4 hours, and 24 hours.

This makes it easier to track if spreads have been high in general during the last day or if they have been volatile during the last 1 or 4 hours. If you have seen the spreads exceed these maximum readings, this means your broker might be making you pay extra in terms of spreads.

The chart of the benchmark interbank price high (ask) and low (bid) data for three different time ranges – last hour,4 hours,and 24 hrs. For navigation, daily high and low readings are marked with a green and red indicator respectively. The price movement range is also indicated in terms of pips and percentage in the same three time scales. If you have had your trades executed out of the high and low range, this might be a good indication of price manipulation.

The price movement chart marks all the economic news publications covered in our economic calendar programme. Any spread widenings are also plotted on the chart so you can see if they correlate with the economic news releases.

If there have been any particularly wide spreads we conclude the report of a pair with a close up look at the movement of the bid and ask sides during the time when the peak daily spread took place along with a short analysis of the particular spread.
