Such BS, the only way the spread is manipulated is for CFD's. Look at the values on L2 for bid and ask and they will near enough match what you are getting on your broker console. Spread is dictated by what is in the book.
Only way you could be potentially be being manipulated is via dark pools or Algos pushing the price up, waiting for you guys to stick your mortgatges in and then selling.
