Hi,
Could somebody who has traded in oanda for some time give me an idea as to when their spreads return no ordinary after weekend?
A lot of thanks.

I just realized Oanda is paying attention on account balances
Not just carry trades, but if you have money in your account, it
makes interest too.... sweet...
That is why I keep all my extra cash in there... at a sub account that I don't touch...!! Makes more there than at a checking account someplace and more than most savings accounts too...!!

4.5% is your current rate... They basically average how muchis on your account on a second by second basis. . .So if youhave $10,000 in the afternoon for 12 hours and $12000 in the afternoonfor 12 hours, that days interest will be on $11,000
I don't understand the rate!!! Sorry... but on a 2K account... it's about $1 per day... much superior than my bank could provide... and also I presume FDIC is only insuring a particular sum per dollar.... Not 100%... I might be wrong though...
