My favorite broker is Circle Markets. It was better than ICMarkets in my real copy trade tests. All trades go directly to liquidity provider, no internal match like others do. Unfortunately I cannot use it for auto trade.
How do you know that the trade go directly to the liquidity provider, does this broker has any means to prove that ? And why couldn't you auto trade with them ?
I complained against them as their execution time were higher than of the other brokers I compared.
But anyway I got much better execution (smaller slippage to source). I investigated with them as I wanted to have explanation.
If the order goes direct to the liquidity provider then you must have minimum execution time of 180ms because of the mt4 bridge.
Broker which have faster execution time are matching orders internally. That doesn't mean that you get a worse execution, but mostly there is an interest to match the orders internally, because that means no costs for the broker. So mostly they have a treshold before they match the orders with the liquidity provider.

Same questions! I think, it’s quite impossible for the general traders.

It all depends whether or not you choose a market making broker or an intermediary model broker who is sending the orders directly to the market. If you choose an agency broker, why won't they be able to provide you with info for the order's execution

Thank you for the detailed answer. So your broker gives you the possibility to choose the orders to be matched internally OR directly to the liquidity providers? Quite interesting hybrid broker... :)

Oanda
As far I see in their website they are non Marker Maker? Or am I mistaken ? Thanks in advance for sharing your experience with them.

All that happens in the A-book. Hybrid brokers means they have an additional B-book for the majority which normally loose. Mean once your order is in the B-book they just trade against you no match needed as they just trade against you as they know mostly the trader will lose so the trader's loss is the broker's win.

B-book trades most importantly are not sent to market. So if you are loosing they make profit. If you make profit they have to pay that from own pocket.

For me, if you have so much money to start with, just invest to several brokers and not only choose 1 broker. I prefer to choose broker with regulated from FCA.
I don't understand why we should trade with multiple brokers. Can you please explain why one broker is not enough to trade with?
