Thread: BEST Brokers for Scalping: Execution, Spreads and Latency

Hello everyone, please publish the average speed of execution (only in real accounts) less the latency, as shown in the Metatrader connection center, the average spread they have observed and the commission (let's use Eurusd as a reference as a reference), Name of the broker and type of platform (MT4 or MT5).In addition, any information (if they know, for example, of the terms of service) about whether the broker sometimes becomes the place of execution of its orders.Let us help each other to find the best broker to make scalping.Thank you.

Do you really think everyone is going to publish here technical data?Many do not even know what latency is.Better use a good VPS and save headaches.

I leave the first example: Forex Chief: Net execution speed based on 5 orders - 570 ms, Spread Eurusd 0.4, Commission $ 4 round trip, MT5 platform.It is not good for high frequency scalping.

570 ms is very slow for Scalping.If you are looking for something for high frequency, you need something below 200 ms and preferably with lower commissions.Maybe you should look pure eCN brokers.

Do you refer only to market execution or also to Stop/Limit orders?Acy.com in MT5 turned all my limit orders into markets and slid all orders, as an example.Global XM: Purchase limit 0.32 Audnzd in 1,06262 made in 21 ms, my VPS is 16 ms from the XM node.

It seems that Acy played a bad pass.Those landslides ruin any scalping strategy.XM sounds better, but also check if they have hidden landslides in other market conditions.

Are anyone using trading.com?I just opened an account there and this is the last state of operation: Audcad purchase open, completed in 78 ms with a +3 slip.My ping is 78 ms, I'm going to move to a closer VPS.

Trading.com seems acceptable to start, but that +3 pips slide can eat your benefits in Scalping.Changing to a closer VPS can help a bit, but maybe it is better to look for a broker with more tight spats.

Good data, I will definitely review it, the execution seems promising.I also tried HotForex Eurusd last week in a VPS in LD4, the execution took 60 ms, Spread 0.2 pip, MT5 platform.

60 ms sounds much better, especially for Scalping.Although HotForex has a good reputation, be sure to monitor those spreads during important ads.Sometimes they shoot without warning.
