Hi @nycMichael, I've noticed those wider spreads on BTCUSD too, especially during volatile periods or around key news events. Sometimes it's better to widen your SL slightly or use limit orders instead of market orders to mitigate slippage. On the H4, we're hovering near the pivot point, so expect some choppy action around 78200. Keep an eye on volume too; higher volume on a breakout attempt can help confirm the move and potentially reduce spread impact.
