I'm with CMC and I'm also showing the same 1.9824/27.
I think it's a spike and is not valid.
This has happened a couple of times with falls and rises.
If you have stops/limits I think it blows them out.
I'd follow it up with them. Good luck.
Be interested to know the outcome.
These type of false spikes occurs sometimes on various platforms sometimes by accident and sometimes I believe brokers are trying to cash in on unwary traders.
This happened to me on Oanda where I complained immediately. They said it was an error and thankfully they restored my trade which was a winner in this case.
I would advise you to contact them promptly as there is no way they can say that it was a geniune price especially if you can show that other major feeds were no where near the spiked price.
This looks like an error to me on their part. Faulty platform or operator error.

IG showed a spike to over 1.99, but it's back to 'only' 1.9825 now!

Yeah, those spikes arn't excecuted over the weekend.
CMC claim they work on a fixed data equation for their price quotes in regualr trading hours(i.e. no manipulation) so if you are are stopped out on
a glaring price discrepencey they will always redress it if you get on to them quick.
