Qué es el Spread en Forex
John Lee Rossi
Actualizado 12 febrero 2024
El “spread” de un instrumento financiero (acciones, Forex, etc.), se refiere a la diferencia de precio entre el precio “ask” (de compra) y el precio “bid” (de venta). El Spread es un tipo de costo de transacción, junto con las comisiones en caso de haber alguna. Debido al spread, cada transacción empieza en pérdida, ya que debemos comprar al precio “ask” y vender al precio “bid”.
Ejemplos de spreads en EUR/USD:
| Precio Bid | Precio Ask | Spread | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4-digit dígitos | 1.0928 | 1.0929 | 0.0001 = 1 Pip |
| 5-digit dígitos | 1.09252 | 1.09257 | 0.00005 = 0.5 Pips |
