Web Trader MT5
A thin market has relatively few active buyers, sellers, or orders. With less depth available, even a modest transaction can move the price sharply. Bid-offer spreads may widen, and the price shown on screen may cover only a small quantity. Thin conditions often appear in less popular assets, outside the busiest trading hours, or before holidays and major announcements. The word describes liquidity, not whether the market is expensive or cheap. A market can be thin while moving higher, lower, or nowhere at all. For large orders, the important issue is that there may not be enough quantity available at the best quoted price.
