Beating Slippage
Many clients believe that Slippage is a controllable factor when trading
Forex. However, slippage is not a Forex scam, it is a factor of trading the
real Forex markets and cannot be avoided. In fact, Slippage is often positive
for clients and can add extra profit to your trades or close an order at a more favorable loss.
Slippage occurs during volatile market conditions when quoted prices are
fluctuating very fast. When trading with an STP broker, you are always
trading real market conditions with leading Forex banks as execution venues.
Therefore prices cannot be and are never manipulated for the benefit of the
broker.
When exiting an order or your stop loss/take profit is attempting to be
filled, the rapid market movement could mean that the price you want to fill at
is not available to trade in the market (it has already past or it never existed)
and the order is filled at the next available price. Order filling at the next available
price is more likely when clients trade during major economic news releases
(News Trading).
Beating Slippage:
Whilst Slippage is unavoidable, it can be limited by using technology
solutions. By limiting Slippage you can also limit the affect on your MT4
trading account.
The Yadix trade servers are hosted at the Equinix financial exchange at the NY4 data center. Under
the same roof and network are the servers of leading banks, execution venues
and liquidity providers. This set up means that your orders are executed within
the same network and not only does it reduce latency it increases your order
execution speeds and the stability of execution.
The average order execution time at Yadix is under 5ms, however, faster
order execution is available. You can also benefit from order execution of as
