I'm looking for a broker with appropriate slippage. After several tests, one can see which broker is more suitable for news trading and which is less suitable.


I suppose God could suggest using FIX accounts with FOK or IOC execution models, where one can easily set the desired amount of slippage (one can even try negative slippage) :)
So your conclusion? Which one is better for news trading?

Also, many brokers don't allow their clients to trade news, they will reject it when you request a withdrawal. That's why there are always scam posts

Currently, FPMarkets on MT4 is the best option for me, but I have only tested around 15 brokers so far. My search is not finished yet.

Before opening an account, don't forget to check if the broker allows news trading. For example, I had no problems withdrawing from FPMarkets, ICMarkets, and a few others.

How long a broker should be tested before we know it is good for news trading?

It depends on the broker.

Sometimes it's clear after several trades that a broker is bad for news trading due to the quality of order execution (slippage, execution speed, spread widening, requotes and rejections).

Otherwise, it's good to check a broker for at least 1 month on all important high-impact news.
