How Exness maintains stable spreads even during news events.
Tight spreads matter in trading. However, stable spreads can mean the difference between a successful strategy and disappointment. A lot of traders look for the lowest possible spread as a priority. It’s a good place to start, but they can easily overlook the importance of spread consistency, especially when markets are moving fast.
Stable spreads provide a level of cost predictability, essential for disciplined trading, risk management, and, ultimately, long-term profitability. Exness has a proven track record of keeping spreads consistent, even when the market becomes volatile.
Why does spread stability matter?
Spreads are a fundamental aspect of trading. When they widen, so does the cost of entering and exiting a trade. That means less potential profit and more risk of slippage.
Unstable spreads make it harder to set your stop loss close to your entry price and remain precise when managing risk. They can also cause havoc if you’re reliant on backtesting results. If spreads are unpredictable, it can lead to overconfidence in a strategy that doesn’t stand up to real-world execution, especially for scalpers and intraday traders.
During news events, all these problems are magnified. Traders with otherwise sound strategies can find themselves stopped out or missing entries due to unstable spreads. If you aim for consistent performance, spread stability isn’t a nice-to-have; it’s essential.
How can I be sure that Exness keeps spreads stable, even during volatility?
Transparency is central to Exness’ approach. Live spread data is always available. Traders can register a live standard account without depositing and view actual spreads in real time.
Five account types (Standard Cent, Standard, Pro, Zero, and Raw Spread) are available, each with a demo equivalent. These allow traders to experience spread behaviour across various instruments before committing any real funds.
This range of account types caters to different experience levels and trading styles. From beginner-friendly to professional-grade options, traders can expect stable spreads and predictable trading costs.
Exness offers tight, consistent spreads on key markets beyond forex, including gold, oil, indices, and cryptocurrencies. In fact, Exness offers the best spreads in the market* on gold, USOIL, and BTC and the most stable spreads on US30**. These pricing advantages are available on commission-based and commission-free accounts, depending on a trader’s preferences.
Conclusion
Low spreads are important, but stable spreads are essential. When markets move fast, your broker is put to the test. Exness has built a platform that holds up to scrutiny with stable spreads during peak volatility.
This combination of a technology-driven core business structure, transparent reporting and pricing data, and a proven track record during market-moving events sets Exness apart from its competitors.
When traders look at spreads, they shouldn’t only ask, “How low can you go?” It’s time they started asking, “How long will you stay there?”
