Raw price spreads from 0.0 pips
ThreeTrader boasts some of the tightest spreads of all forex trading brokers globally. Our PRO account Price Spreads start at 0.0 pips direct from the market on the MetaTrader 4 platform. Our average EURUSD spread is one of the tightest average spreads globally.
Trading costs matter, particularly if you trade intraday timeframes and scalp. In particular, scalpers and high frequency traders (HFT’s) need to make sure trade entry costs such as the spread and commission are competitive, or it will erode away profits and negatively skew their reward to risk ratio’s.
For example, a scalper who risks 5 pips on EUR/USD and aims to ‘scalp’ 5 pips profit wouldn’t want to be paying a 2-pip spread. Therefore, the Pro account where spreads start at 0.0 pips and charge $7 per lot commission (equivalent to 0.7 pips) would make a more sensible choice.
That said the negative impact of the spread reduces significantly to traders of much higher timeframes, therefore a standard account with our tight spreads should be sufficient to the trader.
Institutional grade liquidity
ThreeTrader offer raw spreads which start from 0 pips, as we connect to deep institutional liquidity sourced from over 25 top-tier banks and none bank ECN liquidity providers
We only deal with top-tier liquidity providers so we can offer the tightest spreads, fastest execution and deepest liquidity. By using institutional grade liquidity providers we can accommodate larger traders and still offer a competitive trading environment.
No dealing desk intervention
ThreeTrader do not have a dealing desk, so our traders do not experience requotes or price manipulations.
There’s no good reason for a dealing desk to intervene in your trading. And that’s why ThreeTrader do not. Our clients trade with the comfort of knowing that ThreeTrader are here to facilitate your trading, not hinder it.
We never offer requotes, a practice used by some brokers which can prevent traders from entering or exiting a market at their preferred price.
Lightning Fast Order Execution
Our ultra-low latency trade servers allow for ultra-fast trade entry and exit, making our trading conditions ideal for scalpers and automated traders.
Trading server located in NY4 Equinix Centre
Our servers are based in the NY4 Equinix center in New York, allowing for ultra-low latency and fast execution of trades. This low latency environment is ideal for automated algorithm traders, high frequency traders (HFS) and scalpers.
For example, if an HFS trader uses a VPS (virtual private server) which is also located in the NY4 Equinix center, the distance between their VPS and our trading servers are minimal. If you imagine internet servers being connected with string, the shorter the string, the faster the service. This then allows the HFS trader to enter and exit the market with greater speed and at more favorable prices, even though they are located somewhere else around the world. The lag has been reduced to near-zero, and the only lag remaining is the time it takes for trading results to appear on screen of the traders somewhere across the world.
Unrestricted trading environment (EA’s and Scalpers Allowed)
ThreeTrader facilitate your trades, not hinder them. We allow scalpers and EA’s (expert advisors) to trade in an unrestricted environment and offer excellent trading conditions for EA’s, Robots, Scalping and high frequency trading.
Hedging Allowed
As there is no first in, first out rule (FIFO) traders are free to hedge their positions. This also allows the trader to free up margin.
For example, if a traders were long 5 contracts of AUD/USD ($100,000 per contract is equivalent to a $500,000 position) the margin requirement would be $868.75 with 400:1 leverage.
- Long 5x AUD/USD contracts at 0.6950
- 100,000 per contract at 400:1 leverage
- Margin = (# contracts x contract value x entry price) / leverage
- Margin = (5 x 100,000 x 0.6950) / 400
- Margin = $868.75
However, if they were to fully hedge the position by shorting (selling) 5x AUD/USD contracts, the margin requirements would be reduced to $0. In turn this allows the trader to remove risk from the trade and seek other opportunities.
Vanuatu Regulated Broker
There are a number of strict compliance measures and procedures we abide by to maintain financial sustainability, high operational standards to offer a safe trading environment for our clients.
Trade Mini and Micro Lots
Gain finer control over your risk management or start trading in smaller sizes in forex, metals, indices and oil.
MT4 uses ‘lots’ to calculate trade sizes, as opposed to notional value. For currencies, 1 lot = 100,000 units of base currency. Therefor 1 lot of AUD/USD means you are speculating on the strength of the Australian dollar against US $100,000.
- 1 Lot = 100,000 units of base currency
- 1 lots = 10,000 units of base currency (mini lot)
- 01 lots = 1,000 units of base currency (micro lot)
By allowing mini and micro lots, we allow our traders to speculate markets with a smaller capital outlay and gain finer control of their risk management.
Leverage up to 500:1
Higher levels of leverage allow trades to be opened with significantly lower margin requirements, than would otherwise be possible with futures contracts or the underlying CFD market. Moreover, you have control over your level of leverage as it can adjusted to suit your trading style and risk tolerance.
The maximum level of leverage for each market:
- Forex (500:1)
- Indices (100:1)
- Metals (500:1)
- Oil (100:1)
- Cryptos (5:1)
Multiple Account Currencies Available
ThreeTrader currently supports two major currencies which you can open your account in.
- USD (United States dollar)
- JPY (Japanese Yen)
ThreeTrader may be an Vanuatu regulated broker, but we have a global reach where our clients are concerned. And they want to capitalize on our optimal trading conditions and the high standards our VFSC regulators expect from us. By offering alternative funding currencies it can help alleviate some of the currency risk associated with overseas investing.
