Drawing on my experience navigating the forex landscape, I approach brokers like Test Flight (test) with careful scrutiny—especially when key information is missing. According to the data I reviewed, Test Flight does not publicly disclose whether its spreads are fixed or variable, nor does it provide specifics about spread behavior under high market volatility. As a trader, the distinction between fixed and variable spreads matters greatly for risk management, so this lack of transparency is concerning to me. Without direct confirmation, I can only speculate based on Test Flight’s status as a market maker and its use of cTrader. Typically, market makers with the cTrader platform may offer variable spreads, which tend to widen during periods of high volatility such as major news events. This behavior is standard in the industry, but because Test Flight has not clarified its spread policies or provided concrete examples, I cannot assert this with certainty. Given the importance of cost predictability and execution quality, I prefer brokers who are open about these crucial details. Test Flight’s absence of information on spreads and how they respond to news releases makes it difficult for me to assess my potential trading costs or slippage risk during volatile conditions. Therefore, I would proceed with caution and consider seeking alternative brokers that prioritize transparency in their trading conditions.
