Spread Structures and Pricing Models

Our pricing framework offers competitive spreads and transparent costs across over 60 currency pairs and 200 CFD products. Liquidity is aggregated from tier-1 Canadian banks such as RBC and TD Bank, alongside international sources, ensuring tight spreads during active trading hours. For example, EUR/USD averages 0.8 pips during the London-New York overlap (8:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST).

Canadian dollar pairs maintain spreads below 1.5 pips during Toronto session times. USD/CAD pairs typically exhibit spreads between 0.9 and 1.2 pips, while EUR/CAD and GBP/CAD hold spreads from 1.8 to 2.1 pips during peak liquidity.

Commission Structures by Account Type

Standard Accounts operate on spread-only pricing with no commissions on forex trades, while CFD stock trades incur a $7 CAD commission per standard lot. Prime and VIP Accounts may select commission-based pricing, featuring reduced spreads starting at 0.1 pips plus $3.50 CAD commission per standard forex lot. This benefits active traders executing high volumes daily. Commissions are automatically calculated and deducted upon position closure in the account’s base currency.

Execution Speed and Order Types

Our trading infrastructure ensures rapid order execution averaging 0.03 seconds via servers located in Toronto and Montreal data centers. We use Straight Through Processing (STP) technology, routing orders directly to liquidity providers without dealer intervention. This guarantees execution consistency irrespective of trade volume or market volatility.

  • Limit orders activate precisely at specified price levels
  • Stop-loss orders automatically close positions at preset loss levels
  • Take-profit orders secure profits when targets are met
  • Trailing stops adjust dynamically with favorable price movement

Large orders benefit from partial fills, executing available liquidity immediately while queuing the remainder. One-click trading features enable swift order placement during fast market shifts. Platform uptime is maintained at 99.9% supported by redundant server architecture.

Slippage Control and Price Improvement

We limit slippage to 0.5 pips on major pairs under normal market conditions.
