What affects Algorand / US Dollar spreads?
Crypto CFD spreads on ALGO/USD are typically wider than forex pairs because retail brokers source liquidity from a smaller pool of crypto market makers and centralised exchanges. Expect spreads to widen meaningfully on weekends (when traditional banks are closed but crypto trades 24/7), during sudden volatility shocks, and around major macro releases that move risk assets. Brokers also embed funding-rate risk into the quoted spread for Algorand / US Dollar, so the headline number is rarely the full cost picture.

Session-by-session guidance for getting the tightest pricing on ALGO/USD.
US trading session (13:00–21:00 UTC)
Even though ALGO/USD trades 24/7, the deepest liquidity and tightest spreads coincide with US equity market hours, when crypto correlates closely with risk assets.
Asian session (00:00–08:00 UTC)
Asian retail flow, particularly from Korea and Japan, can drive significant ALGO/USD moves with tight pricing.
