Execution speed here is the broker's own millisecond timestamps — the gap between the order reaching the server and the fill — so it excludes your internet connection and measures only what the broker controls. Across 1,977 measured fills on 3 connected accounts, Vantage Markets filled orders in a median of 133ms, with 95% of fills inside 157ms. The p95 matters more than the median if you trade news: it's the slow tail that costs money.

FAQ

How fast is Vantage Markets's execution?

Median 133ms from order received to filled, measured on 1,977 real fills; the slowest 5% took longer than 157ms. The session table shows how that shifts across the trading day.

How is execution speed measured?

From the broker's own order history: MT5 records when the server received the order and when it filled, in milliseconds. That isolates the broker's processing from your network latency — a slow VPS can't make a broker look bad here, and a fast one can't make it look good.

Does execution speed matter for my strategy?

For scalping and news trading, yes — hundreds of milliseconds move prices. For swing trades held days, median latency is nearly irrelevant, though a long p95 tail can still hurt stop-loss fills in fast markets.
