Re: Wide Spreads in Many Pairs Today

It's 11:40 am right now EDT, and spreads on eur/jpy just doubled to 6 with an accompanying large increase in spot price ranges. I don't know what's caused that (yet), but this is typical for days like this when every little piece of news spooks the market one way or the other.

Be careful out there, everyone! This is not a terribly well-behaved system right now.
