Check Spread

Prevent bad entries by restricting trades based on spread conditions.

Updated over 11 months ago

Purpose

The Check Spread block ensures that trades only execute when the market spread is within a defined range, preventing excessive slippage.

How It Works

  • Set a maximum allowed spread (in pips or points).

  • If the real-time spread is below this threshold, the block returns true.

  • If the spread is too high, it prevents execution.

Use Case

  • Avoid trading during volatile market conditions.

  • Prevent unnecessary slippage during spread spikes.

  • Improve order execution efficiency by filtering bad conditions.

⚠ Note: This is essential for scalping strategies that require tight spreads.
