DislikedOanda spreads during news releases are ridiculous. I've transfered my account to IKON Viking and the difference is huuuuge. The spread widens to 6 -7 pips for EURUSD and 8-9 pips for GBPUSD a few seconds before and after the release. Yesterday during the servives PMI release the spread for GBPUSD was 1.2-1.5 pips. Viking is Currenex based ECN platform.Ignored
