For scalping I care less about “lowest advertised spread” and more about **spread at my hours + slippage on exits**.

What I measure once a week (same pair, same session):
- Open vs midday EURUSD / GBPUSD average spread
- Slippage on 5–10 market exits (demo isn’t enough — small live size)
- Whether commission + spread beats “raw” after rebate math

A 0.0 pip banner with 0.4 reality in the first hour is worse than an honest 0.2 all day.

Anyone logging spreads in a sheet, or just gut feel?
Which pair/session combo is your real cost benchmark — not the marketing screenshot?
