    any ECN broker, they offer any where from 0 - 3 pips most of the time it range around 1-2 pips, but you do pay a comm, still better then dealing with a market maker.

    Mounafia, Dukascopy offers 1 to 2 pips for the GBP/USD. I've also sent you a pm.

    During European and early US hours IB has almost always 1.5 spread - sometimes 1 when it's particularly active. When slow, it can be 2. After US close it's 2-2.5ish.
     
  5. Yes, it is much better to pay both the spread and a commish, rather than just the spread alone.

    I have not found anyone to beat FXCM's micro spreads.
     
  6. WSD offers 1-2 pips spread in GBP/USD depending on how active the market is at that time. You can experience the spreads they offer by downloading their demo account.
     

  7. If its' ok with you, I'd rather not experience ANY spreading.:p

    I should say, not only spreads but the execution is very efficient at FXCM. Very satisfied during the last one year I am trading with them.
