Backtest spread in MT4 Terminal

[jocopley]

Is the Spread value in the Backtest for a single trade or is it in and out?

For example if I set the spread value at say 10 would it apply the value(10) to the entry trade and then to the exit trade or does the backtester divide this figure by two i.e 5 in and 5 out?

So just to clarify it would be 10 in and 10 out?

Many thanks
