### Method

Every ETF whose issuer states a 30-day median bid-ask spread, by the cost to trade a $10,000 order one way: half that spread. A tie is broken by net assets. 1,417 of the 4,708 ETFs that may be listed qualify tonight, and the first 100 are shown. The IQ Liquidity Score measures trading conditions, not the fund, and no list here is a recommendation. The list sorts one published figure, with no scoring or weighting. Too new and closing funds are left out, as are funds no longer listed.

### Questions people ask

What does an ETF’s bid-ask spread cost? Half the spread each way, on average, when you trade at the quote. A limit order at the midpoint plus half the spread caps it. Which ETF tops this list as of Oct 22, 2026? QQQ , at 0.000% one way, $0.00 on $10,000, from a 30-day median spread of 0.00% to Oct 22, 2026.
