Spreads at rollover: what do you see around 5 p.m. New York time?

Around the daily rollover, liquidity thins as banks close their books, and spreads on many pairs widen for a few minutes. On some accounts that's enough to trigger stops or cause an unexpected margin call.

If you've watched it happen in your own platform, share:

• the broker, account type and pair
• the normal spread, and the widest spread you saw around rollover
• how long the widening lasted

Include the date, because spreads can be wider on some days of the week and around holidays. If you trade the Monday open, the same question applies to the first minutes after the market reopens.
