Monthly medians on the broker’s most-traded symbols — medians, so one news spike doesn’t repaint a month. Points are symbol-specific: switch symbols with the chips, don’t compare across them.

FAQ

Is Startrader Financial Markets Limited's execution good?

Across 1,066 measured fills, Startrader Financial Markets Limited scores 74/100 against other measured brokers on the same symbols, ranking #3 of 6. Judge the components — price accuracy, speed and spread — rather than any single number.

How is this measured?

From real fills on connected accounts: slippage compares each order's requested vs executed price in symbol points; latency is the broker's own order-received to order-filled millisecond timestamps; spread is read from the broker's tick history at fill time. Never from reviews or broker marketing.

How often does this page update?

Continuously — connected accounts sync about hourly, and every new fill lands in these statistics. The monthly charts use medians, so one news spike doesn't repaint a month.
