Comparing the Spreads of Different Forex Brokers
We periodically survey the Web pages of various forex brokers. If they provide information on their spreads, we include them here. We do not verify the accuracy of the information they provide. Many of these brokers post only their "special" rates for which they impose deposit, lot size, trade volume, regional or other requirements as a condition of receiving the advertised spread. Most forex brokers also specify that their listed spreads only apply during normal market conditions.
Blank entries in the table below indicate that the currency pair does not appear to be traded on the brokers' platform. Question marks indicate that the broker does not provide any spread information for the currency pair on their site. The following table shows the survey results as of the date noted below.
