FXDD deals as principal acting as the counterparty to most of its clients’ trades, which places a huge trust on the Firm to offer the best execution to its clients. FXDD executes clients’ orders at the best price offered by our credited Liquidity Providers. The system is set to automatically select the best available price and show it to the clients on our online platforms. FXDD considers ‘price’, ‘cost’ and ‘speed’ as highly important execution factors, and other execution factors such as size and likelihood of execution having relatively lower importance.

Execution Venues
