What is the spread (spread) on the Forex.

Spread - the difference between purchase price and sale price of the currency pairs on Forex. When you request quotes of any currency pair, your broker will give you Forex 2 different prices.
For example:
EUR / USD: 1.5586 (sell) and 1.5589 (purchase).
What does this example? But what if you're going to sell a certain amount of the currency pair EUR / USD (as it implies that the dollar will rise in price) - then you can sell it at a price of 1.5586 (the price that put the broker to sell the currency pair) . If you are going to buy the currency pair EUR / USD (as it implies that the euro will rise against the dollar) - then you can buy it at a price of 1.5589.
The difference between the bid and ask price, put up a broker and will be spread - in this case it is 3 points. Spread - a natural profit broker, it receives, regardless of how you trade, successfully or loss.

 This figure illustrates the above. Green line shows the quote currency pair GBP / USD in if you are going to buy (Buy), and red - shows the sales price (Sell). The difference between these prices and will spread, as defined in paragraphs.

leverage

As usual for a transaction the client first allocates a certain amount of their funds in the account at the principal (the bank or company that provides market access). The real trade is conducted with the money of the principal, who provides for entering the market leverage (in the standard case is equal to the leverage of 1:100). Thanks to this client (the investor) is able to handle the amount many times greater than his own, which increases the yield in percentage terms. In this case the customer's funds are so-called margin (a kind of collateral), which freezes the principal on his account for the duration of the maintenance of the transaction until the client (investor) does not make a reverse exchange.

Exchange transactions involving gold

Often the list of currency pairs include quotes and more gold against the U.S. dollar are called gold-spot contracts (and referred to as GOLD).

Account for FOREX allows electronic exchange transactions involving gold and at the same track incessant fluctuations of exchange rates for the precious metal. The interest in such transactions is particularly high in times of crisis, when currencies of all countries in varying degrees of impaired, because of what the demand for gold increases.
