Spread, silver and the GLOBEX

depending on the time of day and the orderflow

the spread can be under 2 cents in silve futures

other times when some market participants are afraid
of more "monkey business" ( i.e. if there was a spike up or down in the price of silver a minute or two ago prior )

the spread can be alot wider than Oandas until
the market calms down
 
Where can I check current difference between the best bid and the best ask? I checked cbot site, cme, liffe but I don't see that.
 
here ya go

mind you this time of evening in the EST USA

the spread is wide and volume thin

esp with the forex movement in the last few hours up and down

12.71 X 12.72 1/2

basis dec futures in SI ( comex )
 
Only 1 cent during active trading hours. Often just half a cent. Get a real broker and see for yourself.
