The benefits of EDGE technology

ECN forex order book

 

Faster: Improved order execution speed, up to 12x faster, reducing latency thanks to fiberoptic connections linked to interbank servers in New York. One-click trading on MT4 for ultra-fast order placement.

Low latency: EDGE connects directly to the bank's servers and to Pepperstone's MetaTrader server. The very low latency reduces slippage and increases execution speed.

Lower spreads: Multi-bank aggregation within New York's ECN network allows Pepperstone to offer the tightest spreads in the interbank market.

Market Depth and order book: EDGE allows you to see the depth of the ECN market on the MT4 platform. Traders can analyze the order book and the amount of liquidity that's available. Since there is no central exchange for the forex market, liquidity is fragmented across multiple trading locations. EDGE unifies these locations and offers unparalleled market depth.

Advanced trading algorithms and routing: EDGE's technology intelligently routes orders to detect market hot spots and offer optimal pricing. If price moves to your advantage when you are placing an order, the PPI technology can improve the price in your favour.
