Execution Advantage

FXCM's No Dealing Desk* aims to provide transparent and fair execution. Every trade is executed back to back with one of the world's premier banks or financial institutions, which compete to provide FXCM with bid and ask prices. The best spreads available to FXCM are streamed to you with a small markup, which is generally one pip or less for major currency pairs.

Why Trade at FXCM
An average of over $365 billion in notional volume is traded each month on trading platforms offered by FXCM. As a result, we have obtained close banking relationships with some of the world's largest and most aggressive price providers. Having multiple price providers is especially important in volatile markets, when one or two banks may post wide spreads, or simply avoid quoting any price at all. With so many major banks quoting prices to FXCM LLC, there are competitive spreads, even during market-moving news events.

With FXCM’s No Dealing Desk execution model, orders are filled from the best available prices to us from banks. While an individual bank may try to skew its prices off the market, the unattractive price on the bid or ask side will lose the price competition and as a result, not factor into the prices streamed to you. At FXCM, prices are not subject to manipulation by a broker or a banks dealing desk.

While our competitors are beginning to follow our example of offering No Dealing Desk execution, we have successfully implemented it. Excellent bid and ask prices are not meaningful unless you have a reliable trading platform to execute trades. Our trading platform is tested in all market conditions, routinely handling approximately 300,000 trades per day.

While FXCM aims to provide clients with the best pricing available, having all orders filled at a requested rate means execution risks will remain. Read more
