As a trader with considerable experience, I find that the information available on LUKFOOK does not specify whether they offer fixed or variable spreads. Instead, their fee structure appears to be more complex and oriented around traditional securities transaction costs—such as commissions, stamp duty, transaction levies, and trading fees—rather than the typical forex model where spread dynamics are a primary concern. This is likely because LUKFOOK’s core offerings center on Hong Kong securities, futures, and options rather than spot forex trading. Given this structure, your exposure to costs during periods of high market volatility, such as during major news releases, is generally less about spreads suddenly widening and more about the cumulative transaction costs and potential slippage associated with the execution of trades. In my own practice, when trading through brokers with a similar model, I have observed that volatility can still affect the execution price—the main risk is price movement between order placement and fulfillment, rather than a broker-driven widening of spreads. With LUKFOOK, transparency about commission and fee rates would be essential before trading around news events, especially since the platform reportedly negotiates commission on accounts. I would advise anyone considering LUKFOOK to approach major news events with caution, recognizing that, while typical forex spread-widening may not be the primary issue, execution risk and total transaction cost can still fluctuate under volatile conditions.
