Kwa msaada wa mtandao ni hivi;
The difference between ASK and BID is called
spread. It represents brokerage service costs and replaces transactions fees.
Spread is traditionally denoted in pips – a percentage in point, meaning fourth decimal place in currency quotation.
Following types of spreads are used in
Forex Trading
Fixed spread – difference between ASK and BID is kept constant and do not depend on market conditions. Fixed spreads are set by dealing companies for automatically traded accounts.
Fixed spread with an extension – certain part of a spread is predetermined and another part may be adjusted by a dealer according to market.
Variable spread – fluctuates in correlation with market conditions. Generally variable spread is low during times of market inactivity (approximately 1-2 pips), but during volatile market can actually widen to as much as 40-50 pips. This type of spread is closer to real market but brings higher uncertainty to trade and makes creation of effective strategy more difficult.
Example 2: Consider a retail
forex trader who buys EUR 100,000 on margin. The current quote in the market is EUR 1 = USD 1.3300 / 1.3302. The bid-ask
spread in this case is 2 pips. The
spread as a percentage is 0.015% (i.e. 0.0002 / 1.3302) of the traded amount of EUR 100,000.
