This is the Dukascopy Spike Controller for Monday with a look at the average and peak spread levels for the 3 non-cross majors.
Euro/Dollar’s long term average spread is point 41 pips and peak of 1.7 pips was posted during the past 4 hours.
The week has started with a sharp decline for this pair and it’s already down by point 81% or 92 pips.
Spreads were slightly bumpy during the slide, but 1.7 pips is the most you should have been charged.
Next up is the Cable, which has long term average and maximum spreads of point 94 and 2.6 pips respectively.
Pound/Dollar has plummeted as well, dropping by point 83% or 108 pips to move further below the 1 30 level.
Spreads were elevated for a number of ticks yesterday at 11 PM GMT, but 2.6 pips is the biggest separation you should have seen.
And last up is the Dollar/Yen, which has a daily average spread of point 52 pips. Peak separation has been 1.2 pips.
The pair rose above the 114 level as it gained point 39% or 44 pips, but a following decline wiped out most of the gains.
Spreads have been relatively calm here for this pair, peaking at 1.2 pips yesterday at 11 PM.
I’m Jack Everitt and that’s how things look at 10 AM GMT.
