This is the Dukascopy Spike Controller for Thursday. As usual, we`ll provide you with the benchmark interbank price data for the 3 non-cross majors.
Averages are slightly above the point 3 pip level in all three time ranges for the Euro/Dollar. Peak separation has been 2.1 pips.
The pair moved sharply down from the high of 1 2360, declining by point 81% or 100 pips.
Spreads were slightly up yesterday at 7 PM GMT during the publication of the FOMC Meeting minutes, but 2.1 pips is the most you should have been charged.
Next up is the Cable, which has a daily average of point 92 pips. Both of the sides were 6.1 pips apart during the past hour.
Pound/Dollar has plummeted by slightly more than 1% or 141 pips, falling below the 1 40 level.
Spreads were sent higher today at 9:30 as the Second estimate of UK GDP was out, but 6.1 pips is the biggest gap you should have seen.
And last up is the Dollar/Yen, which has long term average and maximum spreads of point 39 and 1.7 pips respectively.
Daily high and low difference is 74 pips and it was posted as the pair declined by point 69%.
Spreads have been mostly calm, peaking at only 1.7 pips yesterday at 7 PM GMT as the US FOMC meeting minutes were released.
I’m Jessica Walker and that`s it for Thursday`s Spike Controller.
