    When Non farm news coming out. I see spread still 1.2-1.9 pips, it wasn't hit a 100.453 price, cause I have spead indior. And when down enough to hit on my TP. But before it down, Alpari attempt to hit my SL first so it is a reduction trade

    And here is a dialogue between me and their support

    I trade the major impacts news. The market generally gets some 5-9 pips within that pair.
    Simply to be sure I cked in all my live accounts and they have up same pub spike in the 5M charts.
    Ahead of the spike down.

    Just the market doing its things, no distinctive broker trick.

    MT5 (ECN) documents spread, I'm trading with Alpari UK, a minute before NFP spread was 19,2 pips, on NFP spread was 24,9 on this pair. Of course it ECN can have broader spread on volatile news. If it is any comfort to you, GBPJPY spread widened to nearly 200 pips

    Thats because the USD/Yen was giving two conflicting buys signs. While this occurs, you'll get messy spikes. I usually allow 40 pips to get these kinds of signals. . .and simply take them if there isn't much available everywhere. Euro and Pound were cleaner and less costlier.

    I would assume the spread was pips but don't trade that particular currency pair so I can't say for sure. Also with all the volatile news coming out at 8:30est the spread might have widen from the norm. You ought to have been more patient and waited to get a explanation on your text conversation. Maybe Alpari UK can assist you.
