cTrader Spread & Cost Overlay is a lightweight indicator designed to visualize real-time trading costs directly on the chart.

The indicator shows the current spread in pips and calculates the estimated cost of a trade based on the selected lot size. A visual warning highlights periods of high spread, helping traders avoid unfavorable execution conditions.

Key features:
• Live spread display (pips)
• Estimated trade cost for selected lot size
• Visual warning when spread exceeds a defined threshold
• Clean on-chart overlay

This indicator does not place trades or generate trading signals.
It is intended as an execution and risk-awareness tool for manual traders.

Suitable for scalpers, intraday traders, and prop firm accounts.

*Early access price. Future updates may be released at a higher regular price.
