Hi,

Spread is the difference between a symbol Bid and Ask price levels, so to get spread you need both bid and ask price of a symbol and then you can subtract one from another and get the spread.

To get live price quotes you have to subscribe to a symbol spot event, and after that you will keep getting price quotes unless you unsubscribe from the event.
