Default Noob question

Hi,
I noticed that the trading software that I use (from fxcm.com, I hear it's one of the best) shows one value when I go to buy for instance eur/usd and another value (open value) is shown in the charts bar(1 minute bars). For example I never saw in the buying menu a difference between buy/sell prices less than 10 pips, even when on the chart a 0 bar appeared (buying price = selling price ). OK , I'm not implying that the software I use isn't good, not at all; I tried another one from fxsol.com, and the same result appeared. The Price you actually buy a currency isn't equal to the price shown on the bar chart. Who can invest in forex when the tools we use are telling us different versions of the "truth".

I'm interested if anyone can explain to me why this happens?? where can I find Charts with the real buying and selling prices??

Thanks

Charts usually show either Bid or Ask quotes, so this is one source for differences. In FX AccuCharts (the charting FXSol provides) you have two symbols available, one showing Bid values and the other Ask values, so you can choose what you like to see. Don't know what you mean by "0 bar".
