Execution Transparency

At FS Insights Pro, our aim is to give you all the information you need to make smarter trades. We understand that in today’s complex market environment, transactional transparency is an increasingly important part of execution performance. The more transparent your trading partner, the more you know and the more power you have. 

EXECUTION SPEED

Execution affects the price you pay. FS Insights Pro is therefore committed to maintaining an efficient trading environment and understands that fast trade execution* is critical to your success. We challenge ourselves every day to deliver this. After all, being fair pays dividends in customer satisfaction.

PRICE IMPROVEMENTS

At FS Insights Pro, we've automated every aspect of the trade process with the goal of ensuring your trades are executed lighting fast, without any manual intervention, and at the price you expect – or at times even better.

OUR TECHNOLOGY: Over one hundred thousand orders with Price Improvements*

With FS Insights Pro’s price improvement technology, all orders can receive positive slippage, or price improvements as a result of natural market price fluctuations. This means you can potentially make more money if the market gaps or spikes favourably through your price. This is especially true in situations where the market moves fast (during weekend gaps or around news events). You may though also experience negative slippage. This means the price you are filled at will be worse than the order price and in extremely volatile markets, the fill price could be much worse. However, we're committed to maintaining an efficient trading environment that reduces latency to help you manage the degree of acceptable slippage. 

*Data from 1^st of December to the 20^th of December 2017.
