Execution Speed Benchmarks

Latency Standards

• • Ideal execution speed: < 20ms
• • Acceptable execution speed: 20–50ms
• • Maximum allowed for partnership: < 100ms
• • Consistency requirement: 95% of orders within benchmark
• • Monitoring: real‑time latency tracking

Benchmark Categories

• • Market execution speed
• • Pending order activation speed
• • Stop Loss / Take Profit trigger latency
• • Slippage frequency and magnitude
• • Requote rate (should be 0%)

Infrastructure Requirements

• • Tier‑1 liquidity aggregation
• • Low‑latency data centers (LD4, NY4, TY3 preferred)
• • Redundant execution servers
• • Direct connectivity to liquidity providers
• • Real‑time failover protection

EA‑Specific Benchmarks

• • Scalping compatibility: < 20ms execution
• • Grid / martingale compatibility: stable execution under load
• • News trading compatibility: minimal freeze periods
• • High‑frequency EA support: ultra‑low latency routing
• • Zero artificial delays or throttling

Monitoring & Reporting

• • Monthly execution quality report
• • Latency heatmaps
• • Slippage distribution charts
• • Peak‑hour performance analysis
• • Independent third‑party verification (optional)
