All accounts at FXOpen UK are ECN or STP accounts and use the ECN model. The ECN model gives traders access to the Interbank market where the counterparty to your trade is a liquidity provider such as a bank, fund, or another trader. There is no intervention from FXOpen, no dealing desk and no requotes.
ECN accounts are suitable for all types of trading due to its fast execution and deep liquidity. This is especially useful for scalping, high frequency and automated trading. The ECN Model uses Market Execution, which means that your order will be filled in the interbank market but the execution price may differ from the price you requested upon placing the order.
All participants of the ECN have equal rights when it comes to order execution regardless of their capital. Additionally everyone on the ECN can act as both liquidity providers and liquidity receivers. This ensures that all transactions take place in a completely fair and transparent environment.
This business model, combined with the unique technology behind the FXOpen ECN, provides our clients with aggregated liquidity from multiple participants in the FOREX market. This allows FXOpen’s clients to easily and instantaneously execute large volume orders in a very tight spread and highly liquid environment.
