Forex Liquidity for Brokers
Plan liquidity and execution connectivity as part of a complete MetaTrader brokerage infrastructure.
Forex liquidity infrastructure for brokers
Liquidity is not only a list of instruments or a headline spread. Brokerage operators need to evaluate commercial terms, execution quality, connectivity, reporting, support and how the liquidity layer fits their risk model.
Liquidity evaluation checklist
- FX, metals, indices, commodities and other required instruments
- Pricing and commission structure
- Execution and fill characteristics
- Depth and available market data
- Margin, credit and counterparty terms
- Bridge, gateway, FIX or API connectivity
- Data-centre and latency requirements
- Reporting and operational support
Liquidity should be designed with the platform
The platform, execution layer and liquidity connection should be tested as one system. The correct architecture depends on whether the broker uses A-book, B-book or hybrid risk workflows and on the systems available from each provider.
