Competitive spreads
Our spreads start from 1.2 pips
We aim to give you the tightest spreads we can provide. Spreads are the difference between the bid and ask prices and they are how brokers make their money.
Alpari UK offers tight spreads not only on a few pairs but on the full range of currency pairs we offer. Our Classic, Micro and spread betting account clients can benefit from tight spreads on 37 major and exotic pairs. ECN account clients can can trade 34 currency pairs.
Pro clients receive up to 57 pairs with spreads from 0 pips.
We offer you transparent prices
We know that markets can move fast, and having direct access to the markets can make all the difference to you. That’s why we provide you with non-dealing desk execution when you trade forex and spot gold/silver.
Remember rollover charges and credit
Alpari UK offers rolling spot forex. This means we don't arrange physical delivery of currencies and therefore, all positions left open from 23:59:45 to 23:59:59 (MetaTrader time, EET) will be rolled over to a new value date. As a result, positions are subject to a swap charge or credit. Please read our rollover/interest policy to find out more.
If you trade forex on a "spot" basis, all trades settle two business days from inception, as per market convention. The settlement date is referred to as the value date.
