Calculating Spread

[[Deleted]]

Hello fellow Traders,

would this be the correct way to calculate spread?

double BidPN; //Bid Price New
double AskPN; //Ask Price New
double SpreadC;

void OnTick()
   {
      BidPN = Bid;
      AskPN = Ask;
      SpreadC = MathAbs(AskPN - BidPN);
   }

You don't need MathAbs(Ask-Bid) as some brokers proudly presents their occasionally appearing negative spreads.

Or
