The difference between potential profit and break-even often comes down to a few pips. That's why we're introducing dedicated windows where spreads on select instruments are significantly reduced, so your trades keep more of every favourable move.

During these Spread Advantage Hours, spreads are automatically up to 30% tighter. No opt in, no minimum trading volume, just lowered costs and improved entries and exits.

These trading windows run daily at the same times during the active period, making it easier to plan your trading strategy around these conditions.

Why tighter spreads matter for your trading

Tighter spreads mean lower trading costs and more room for your strategies to potentially succeed. When spreads are reduced:

  • You enter positions closer to your intended price levels
  • You reduce the distance the price needs to move before reaching profitability
  • You’ll benefit from improved cost efficiency

Whether you're scalping quick movements or building longer-term positions, reduced spreads give your strategies more breathing room to perform.

Reduced spreads applied automatically

These Spread Advantage Hours work seamlessly in the background. If you're trading eligible instruments during the promotional hours on your Deriv MT5 Standard account, the improved spreads apply without any action required on your part.

This makes it perfect for both manual trading and automated strategies. Set your Expert Advisors or trading bots to capitalise on these conditions, or simply trade as usual.
