15 pip spread on eurusd, is that common/normal?

Hi all,
I demo traded some years ago and the spread back then was like 2 pips. The broker I'm demo trading on now (Global Prime) has 15 pips on eurusd.
Isn't that crazy?

Spreads are floating spreads and vary by account type.

Depending on how long back you were last trading, you would have been trading with a 4 digit broker. Today brokers have 5 digits, so your 2 pips is now actually 1.5 pips.

That said, 15 points is still pretty steep but common on your no commission accounts. If you pay commission rather, you can get 0 pip spread on EURUSD>
