What it actually costs to trade
The spread is the fee you pay on every single trade, and it is the one cost no firm puts on its pricing page. This is what each firm quotes, with a normal retail broker at the bottom of the table, so you can see what the markup actually is.
- Right now
- The spread each firm is quoting at this moment. A live snapshot, not a minimum and not an average.
- Typical
- The median of hourly readings over the last 7 days, so one news spike or a thin hour does not set the number.
- Commission
- Charged per standard lot on top of the spread, as the firm publishes it. Last read 10 Sept.

Spreads move constantly and widen around news, at the daily rollover and in thin hours. A live number is what was quoted a moment ago and a typical number is a median, and neither is a promise about your fill. Treat them as the order of magnitude a firm charges. See every firm we track.
