Spread Cost Calculator
Every trade starts in the red because of the spread. Calculate exactly how much your broker is charging you per execution and optimize your trading frequency.
Why Spreads Matter
The spread is the primary way most retail brokers make money. While "zero commission" accounts sound great, the spread is actually a hidden commission built into every trade.
For high-frequency traders and scalpers, spread costs can easily consume 20-30% of total profits. Always compare spreads across different brokers before opening an account.
