An execution speed of 'an average 20 milliseconds (0.02 seconds)' refers to the time it takes for an order sent from a trader's platform to be processed by FXON's trading server and fully executed. The faster the execution speed, the quicker the trade can be completed, and improves execution accuracy at the intended price. This time can be affected by factors such as server processing speed, market liquidity, and network conditions.

What is the execution speed range?

Execution speed is determined by the processing time from when an order is placed to when the trade is completed. The order goes through several stages as outlined below.

The trader places an order, and it is sent from the trading platform MetaTrader 4 ( MT4 ), MetaTrader 5 ( MT5 ).
The order is transmitted from the trader's platform to FXON's trading server.
On FXON's trading server, the order is executed at the best available price through liquidity providers (LP) or the internal matching system.

This is the range of "execution speed" (execution processing time). The execution result is notified to the trader’s platform, and if the trade is completed, it is reflected in the trade history.

The meaning of "average execution speed of 20 milliseconds

This means that the average time for the entire process from steps 1 to 3 is 20 milliseconds (0.02 seconds). In other words, the processing time from when an order is sent to when it is executed at the best available price averages 20 milliseconds.
