Any differences would have to be minimal of course, otherwise the provider would be open to arbitrage trades. In the same way that CFD and spread betting companies make their own prices, although they are often different from the underlying market, ...

I'm not sure that the spread would be any different except maybe during periods of high volatility? Someone else might have a more informed answer than me?

By negative spreads do you mean that you could make a profit just by buying and selling simultaneously with the same broker? Sorry for the possibly silly question, but I have never come across negative spreads (apart from in arbitrage trading) and ...
