In trading, traders will be offered a ‘bid’ (sell) and an ‘ask’ (buy) price, which mark the selling and buying points of the base currency, respectively. The difference between the bid and ask price is the ‘spread’.

Trades involve facilitators such as banks or liquidity providers to ensure orderly transaction flows, where they pair every buyer with a seller. These facilitators bear trade risks and, as compensation, retain a portion of each trade, known as the spread.

Vantage is committed to keeping our spreads competitively low for all clients.
