Open Exness Account →Why stability matters
Two accounts can advertise the same ‘typical’ spread and behave very differently under load. A stop-loss, a scalp exit or a news entry is filled at the spread of that moment — not at the median. Spread stability is one of the account features Exness highlights; this table lets a trader verify it on measured data rather than take it on faith.
Spreads may fluctuate and widen depending on liquidity, news and market conditions.
