High liquidity in a monetary market is usually caused by a multitude of orders to buy and sell in that market. This liquidity allows you to deal closer to the market value price. Therefore, the bid-ask spread tightens the much more liquid a market is. The reverse is true when the marketplace is less liquid. In this case, the spread boosts as it's more difficult to sell and get near the market worth due to an absence of volume in trades.
