As an experienced trader, I have to clarify that based on the information currently available, I cannot find any definitive or transparent details regarding the typical spread for EUR/USD on a standard Barclays account. In my personal review of the broker, this lack of clear disclosure immediately raises concerns for me. Most reputable and trustworthy forex brokers prominently publish their spreads, particularly for a widely traded pair like EUR/USD, because spreads directly impact every trader’s bottom line. However, the context here shows that Barclays lacks valid regulation in Japan and carries several warning signs such as a suspicious regulatory license and high potential risk. In my trading career, I have learned firsthand that regulatory oversight is a critical layer of protection. When a broker operates without clear regulation and does not provide basic trading condition details like spread ranges, it becomes very difficult for me to trust them with my funds. The absence of this key information means I cannot accurately assess the cost of trading or compare Barclays to other more transparent, regulated brokers. For me, personally, this uncertainty is a strong reason to proceed with extreme caution, if at all. I would advise anyone to be wary and demand full transparency before considering any live trading or deposits.
