Not all traders understand the immediate benefits of trading with an ECN broker, so here is a short list of them:

  • There is no conflict of interest between a trader and an ECN broker.
  • Better pricing. The chances are that you will be able to get a lower Ask for buying and higher Bid when selling.
  • A choice of liquidity providers and commission structure. When you trade a lot, you can negotiate such terms with your broker.
  • Access to volume data and traders' sentiment information of your broker's liquidity pool.
