The spread should be prominently displayed in between the bid and the ask on the charts.

I am very new to cTrader, but spread *IS* shown on the chart. Red and blue lines around the price... Maybe this is new?

Use this indicator to display the current spread of the symbol on the chart:

/algos/indicators/show/331

this would also be good to have on the ctrader web platform as an indicator

Yep. This is needed on both the desktop and web versions of cTrader.

This is a MUST.

In my opinion, it should be added in between the Buy/Sell buttons of QuickTrade. I'm really missing this piece in the WEB version :(

Totally agreed! The spread (total fee per units/lots) should be clearly displayed on all versions of cTrader. This became evident today when I took a trade on XPD/USD and the spread came to around $90 and with a 2% stop it didn't take long to lose the trade! If I had of known the excessive spread upfront in dollar terms, I would have never taken this trade! Please cTrader devs implement this asap for us traders who don't have the time to calculate it for every trade (especially when scalping).

*Upvote this thread if you agree and want spread (cost) to be transparent before entering the trade!
