Key Charges You Should Know.
What is the Spread and How Does It Affect Your Trading?
The spread is the difference between the bid and ask prices of a CFD market. The buy price is always bigger than the sell price, so for your trade to turn a profit, the market price needs to move more than the spread in your chosen direction.
Step 01
Understand Spreads
Spreads can change depending on the time of day and market conditions, so always check the platform for the latest. Typically high-volume markets like EUR/USD have tighter spreads than lesser-traded ones like corn or orange juice.
Step 02
Know Overnight Funding
You're charged overnight funding adjustment to cover dealing costs of holding positions overnight. The calculation depends on asset class and includes interest-rate benchmarks (SONIA or SOFR), overnight basis adjustment, and our daily fee.
Step 03
Consider Currency Conversion
When you trade on a market denominated in a different currency to your account, you will pay a conversion fee of 0.7% of the spot forex rate (0.5% for professional clients), charged when there is a cash transaction in a foreign currency on your account.
