Cos'è lo Spread in Forex
Lo spread di uno strumento finanziario (azioni, Forex, ecc.), si riferisce alla differenza di prezzo tra il prezzo lettera e il prezzo denaro. Lo spread è un tipo di costo di transazione, insieme alle eventuali commissioni. A causa dello spread, ogni operazione partirà in perdita, perché si acquista al prezzo lettera e si vende al prezzo denaro.
Esempio di spread coppia EUR/USD:
Prezzo Denaro (Bid) | Prezzo Lettera (Ask) | Spread | |
---|---|---|---|
Quotazione a 4 cifre | 1.0928 | 1.0929 | 0.0001 = 1 Pip |
Quotazione a 5 cifre | 1.09252 | 1.09257 | 0.00005 = 0.5 Pips |
