Our Order Execution Policy applies to both Retail and Professional Clients and provides further information as to how we handle and execute client orders.
Our pricing
Our CFD live pricing is proprietary prices that are electronically generated by our systems or trading platforms and are based on the prices of the relevant underlying financial instrument. This means that our pricing will take into consideration several factors which may vary depending on the nature of the underlying financial instrument, such as whether the underlying financial instrument is listed on an exchange or any other trading venue, the depth of liquidity available, and how frequently the underlying financial instrument is traded. In respect of shares, we provide our derived pricing.
