Indicative demo data — not live market prices. PipDig quotes are a fixed, fictional snapshot taken at and published for illustration and education only. They do not update, they are not sourced from any exchange or broker, and they must never be used to place, price or value a trade.
Select any column heading to sort. Price columns rank each instrument by where it sits inside its own 52-week range, because absolute prices are not comparable across classes.
Every row shows two prices. The bid is where the market will buy from you, so it is the price you sell at; the ask is where the market will sell to you, so it is the price you buy at. The gap between them is the spread, and it is the cost you pay the moment a position opens. A trade is underwater by the width of the spread before the price has moved at all, which is why comparing spreads across brokers matters more than almost any other headline number.
Spreads are quoted in pips for currencies and metals, and in index points for the equity and crypto CFDs. A pip is the fourth decimal for most pairs, the second decimal for anything quoted against the Japanese yen, and one cent for gold. The table applies the right pip size per instrument, so the figures are directly comparable within a class even though the underlying prices are not.
The day change columns measure the current bid against the previous session close, in both absolute and percentage terms. Percentages are the fairer comparison: a forty-point move in the Dow and a forty-pip move in EUR/USD are very different events. The day high and day low frame the session range, and the sparkline at the end of each row plots the last thirty closes so you can see whether the move fits a trend or breaks one.
The majors respond to interest-rate expectations above everything else. Central-bank meetings, inflation prints and labour-market releases repriced the rate path, and the currency follows. The minors strip the dollar out of the equation and isolate the relative stance of two other central banks, which makes them the cleaner expression when you have a view on European or Asia-Pacific policy divergence specifically.
Exotics behave differently again. Carry — the interest-rate gap you earn or pay for holding a position overnight — dominates, and the swap figures on each instrument page are often larger than the daily range. That cuts both ways: a position held against the carry bleeds even when the price does not move. Metals track real yields and haven demand, crypto trades around the clock including weekends, and index CFDs gap between the cash close and the following open.
Forex trades continuously from the Sydney open on Sunday evening to the New York close on Friday, but liquidity is far from even across those hours. The session map on this page shows the four centres on a single 24-hour GMT clock. The London–New York overlap between 13:00 and 17:00 GMT is when the largest share of volume crosses, and it is where spreads are tightest and ranges widest.
The hours after the New York close are the opposite: books thin out, spreads widen — sometimes by several multiples on exotics — and stops sitting just beyond obvious levels are far more likely to be swept by a move that carries no information. If you trade a strategy with tight stops, the session you trade will affect your results as much as the setup you take.
No. Every number in the tables above is indicative demo data — a fixed, fictional snapshot published so you can see how a quote board is laid out and how spreads differ between asset classes. The values never change and are not sourced from any exchange, liquidity provider or broker. Always price a trade from your own broker's live feed.
The spread is the gap between the bid (what you can sell at) and the ask (what you can buy at), and it is the main cost of a trade. It is quoted in pips for currencies and metals and in points for indices and crypto. Deep, heavily traded markets such as EUR/USD carry the narrowest spreads; thin ones such as USD/TRY or palladium carry the widest.
For most currency pairs a pip is the fourth decimal place, so a move from 1.08540 to 1.08550 is one pip. For pairs quoted against the Japanese yen a pip is the second decimal place instead. Our spread column applies the correct pip size per instrument, which is why a 0.014 move in USD/JPY shows as 1.4 pips while a 0.00009 move in EUR/USD shows as 0.9.
The London–New York overlap between 13:00 and 17:00 GMT carries the most volume, the tightest spreads and the widest ranges, and suits most intraday strategies on the majors. The Tokyo session is better for yen crosses and the Australian dollar, while the hours after the New York close are the thinnest and most expensive to trade.
