Forex Dealing Spreads

May 6th, 2008 by admin

 

When you are dealing on the forex market there is a dealing spread which is presenting you with a buying and selling level for the trade.  If you do take the offer that is being presented to you and the dealers confirm the trade, it is then completed.  Nothing else is necessary for you to do.  No other hold ups.  It’s a time saving transaction. 

 

Under a typical market situation the dealing spread is about 3-5 points.  You have no more to pay, no commissions or exchange fees.  There is security in knowing that you can go in and out of the trade without slippage.
