Factors Affecting Equiti’s Spreads

Several factors influence the spreads offered by Equiti:

Market Volatility

During periods of high market volatility, spreads may widen to reflect increased risk and reduced liquidity. Equiti’s advanced trading infrastructure ensures that our clients receive the best possible spreads even during turbulent market conditions.

Trading Hours

Spreads tend to be tighter during peak trading hours when market liquidity is highest. Equiti provides 24/5 trading access, allowing clients to take advantage of optimal spread conditions across different time zones.

Economic Events

Major economic announcements and geopolitical events can cause temporary spread widening. Equiti’s economic calendar helps traders stay informed about upcoming events that may impact spreads.

Spread Calculation and Monitoring

At Equiti, we believe in empowering our traders with knowledge. Understanding how spreads are calculated and monitored is crucial for effective trading:

Spread Calculation

The spread is the difference between the bid (selling) and ask (buying) price of a currency pair. For example, if the EUR/USD bid price is 1.1000 and the ask price is 1.1002, the spread is 2 pips.

Real-time Monitoring

Equiti provides real-time spread information through our advanced trading platforms. Traders can monitor spreads directly on their charts or through dedicated spread widgets, ensuring full transparency in their trading activities.
