From Thursday 30th July, Alpari (UK) will be tightening minimum spreads across ALL currency pairs and precious metals. Flexible spread minimums will be reduced on average by 25% and up to 60% for some currency pairs compared with current fixed spreads.
With the introduction of additional price feeds, clients will be able to access significantly tighter spreads as we pass on the benefit of the tighter spreads available to us from the Interbank market.
Flexible spreads will also bring a greater degree of price-transparency to clients’ trades along with institutional-level pricing and lower transactional costs.
The introduction of significantly lower minimum spreads supports our commitment to providing clients with the most accurate Forex pricing, better execution and wider market access. We will also take every opportunity to tighten them further in the future.
During certain times of the day, periods of lower liquidity and when there is increased market volatility, spreads will naturally widen. Fully understanding the dynamics of flexible spreads is key to better-informed and more considered trading and the Alpari Academy will soon feature new tutorials and expert, impartial advice on the topic of spreads.
Flexible spreads will be integrated in Alpari (UK) Demo accounts from 30th July 2009 and in Alpari (UK) Live accounts within a matter of days.
We welcome your comments and suggestions and, if you would like to discuss this subject or any aspect of our service, please email Client Services at support@alpari.co.uk.
