Just use common sense. When you place an order, first check the spread. if the spread is greater than the usual spread which is mostly 1-2 pips, then don't open the trade. We don't need a spread screener for this thing. Just check the spread before you open the trade and if the spread is big, then don't open the trade. It is simple.

We can easy code such a python script that will check 28 currency pairs and print their spreads. I haven't done it though. When a spread is wide it means either the volatility is high or the liquidity in the market is low. Either of the two things. EURUSD spread should be 1-2 pips. Before we open an order, we find the spread to be 12 pips it means the volatility is high and we should avoid opening a trade. These are the times when the spread is usually high. Around the market close time on Friday. On Monday when the market opens and daily at 0 hours when the new day starts on your broker platform. Around 1 hour of that time the spread can be as high as 20-40 pips. Why? Around this time the brokers are doing maintenance and other household chores so they make the spread high making sure traders don't open a trade around this time.
