Spreads

A spread is the difference between the buy and sell prices of a trading instrument. It is one of the broker's potential sources of income (through the difference between the instrument's price in the provider's account and the price in the client's account, considering the spread) and also a risk management tool.

Click ADD NEW SPREAD to add a spread markup to a group of instruments.

After selecting a spread group you can set Session type, Min spread and Max spread.

The Min. spread setting protects the broker from losses if incorrect prices are received from the liquidity provider. If the natural spread is less than the specified value, the platform will increase it to the specified value. This setting only applies to market orders. Setting Max. spread setting protects the client from losses in similar situations. If the natural spread is greater than the specified value, the platform will limit it to the specified value.

Please note! The spread specified in the setting is not summarized with the raw spread, but replaces it.

Session type can be:

• Offline
• Main
• Pre market
• After market

Click Override bands to add volume bands and Extra spread to the market depth.

Click SAVE to save your spread settings.
