Generally, a spread is a difference between two prices, rates, or yields.
The bid-ask spread is most prevalent, referring to the difference between a security's or asset's asked and offered prices.
When the spread is larger than what you want to trade, it may also be referred to as the difference in a trading position - the gap between a short position (that is, selling) in one futures contract or currency and a long position (that is, buying) in another.
