Even in conditions where a certain number of liquidity providers have decided to expand the spread or stop quoting prices, the Company is still able to provide customers with access to liquidity with competitive prices. Partial execution: this is the practice of executing an order at a time when there is not enough liquidity in the market to execute the order in full order at a specific price. Partial execution can be performed at different prices.

  • Stop Loss: this is an order that can be attached to an already opened position to close a position at a specified price. Stop Loss can be used to minimize losses;
  • Take Profit: this is an order that can be attached to an already open position to close a position at a specified price. Take Profit can be used to protect profits.
  • Sell Limit: this is a trade order for sale at a "Bid" price, equal to or greater than that specified in the order. In this case, the current price is less than the value set in the order. Typically, orders of this type are placed in the expectation that the price of the instrument, having risen to a certain level, will begin to decline;
  • Sell Stop: this is a trade order for sale at a "Bid" price, equal to or less than that specified in the order. In this case, the current price level is greater than the value of the established order. Typically, orders of this type are placed in the expectation that the price of the instrument will reach a certain level and continue to decline;
  • Buy Market / Sell Market: this is a buy / sell order at the current available market price;
  • Buy Limit: this is a trade order to buy at an "Ask" price, equal to or less than that specified in the order. In this case, the current price level is higher than the value set in the order. Typically, orders of this type are placed in the expectation that the price of the instrument, having dropped to a certain level, will begin to rise;
  • Buy Stop: this is a trade order to buy at an "Ask" price, equal to or greater than that indicated in the order. In this case, the current price level is less than the value set in the order. Typically, orders of this type are placed in the expectation that the price of the instrument will overcome a certain level and continue its growth.

4.15. Order Execution Types

4.15.1. Market orders are the buy or sell orders at the current available market price. The system automatically aggregates volumes received from third parties, liquidity providers, and executes a market order at a volume-weighted average price (VWAP), which is the average and best available price at the time of execution.

4.15.2. Pending orders:

  • Limit order: this is an order to buy or sell when the market reaches a certain price. As soon as the market reaches a certain price, the order is launched and executed at the specified price or better. If the “limit order” cannot be applied, it remains in the system until a later date under the conditions described in “Good Till Cancel”. Limit orders can be placed as close to the current market price as possible, without restrictions.
  • GTC (Good Till Cancel): this is a pending order that is valid until the Client cancels it.
  • GTD (Good Till Day): this is a pending order that is valid until the set date (date of expiration of the order).
  • Stop order: This is a buy or sell order when the market reaches the specified price. As soon as the market reaches a certain price, the “Stop Order” is triggered and executed as a market order. If the “Stop Order” cannot be applied, this means that the order remains in the system under the conditions described in the “GTC” section. “Stop orders” can be placed as close as possible to the current market price, without restrictions.
  • Stop loss: this is an order used to minimize losses. As soon as the market reaches the specified price, the order is triggered and executed as a market order. If the “Stop Loss” cannot be applied, this means that the order remains in the system under the conditions described in the section GTC. Stop loss can be placed as close as possible to the current market price, without any restrictions
  • Take Profit: This is an order used to protect profits. Once the market reaches a price “Take Profit”, the order is triggered and is considered as a limit order. If Take Profit does not work, it remains in the system until a later date. Take Profit can be placed as close to the current market price as possible, without any restrictions.
  • Modification / cancellation of orders: The client can change / cancel a pending order.

4.16. Order execution:

4.16.1. The Company takes all reasonable measures to achieve the best result for its Clients in fulfillment of Clients. Prices, expenses and currency conversion are of paramount importance when concluding transactions for our Clients.

4.16.2. Prices:

  • Bid Ask spread: Two prices are given for any financial instrument of the Company: a higher price (Ask) at which the Client can buy (enter a long position) a financial instrument, and a lower price (Bid) at which the Client can sell (open a short position) a financial instrument. The difference between the higher and lower prices of a given financial instrument is called a spread.
  • Pending orders: such orders as Buy Limit, Buy Stop и Stop Loss / Take Profit are executed at Ask for open short position. Orders such as Sell Limit, Sell Stop и Stop Loss / Take Profit orders for open long position are executed at Bid.
  • The Company’s price for the financial instrument is calculated based on the prices of the corresponding financial instrument, which the Company receives from its liquidity providers. The Company updates its prices as often as limited by technical capacity. The Company does not quote prices in the period of its non-operating hours (see p. "Execution Methods"), therefore, no orders can be placed by the Client during this time.
  • All trading operations are transferred directly to liquidity providers through an electronic execution system in the trading platform. This system automatically requests a quote from liquidity providers. In combination with the price, the Company quotes the available liquidity (or “market depth”) received from liquidity providers. The Company’s software will automatically combine all available liquidity at the best prices and form a volume-weighted average price (VWAP).
  • Expenses: to open a position on any financial instrument, the Client is obliged to pay a commission or other fees, if applicable; these amounts are presented in the contract specification and are available on the Company's official site.

4.17. The service charges a commission for each lot placed on the market (1 lot - 100,000 units of the base currency). The commission is charged twice: when opening and closing positions. More detailed information is listed on the Company's official site: https://w-fintech.online.

4.18. Currency conversion: a Company can convert currencies from the base currency of the Client's account into the currency of the corresponding financial instrument.

4.19. For all types of financial instruments offered by the Company, commissions and swaps are not included in the Commission of the Company and are charged additionally from the Client’s account.

4.20. Positions costs and fees: the cost of open positions in some types of financial instruments increases or decreases by the amount of the daily “swap” fee. Swaps are calculated based on prevailing market interest rates that are subject to change. Detailed information on daily fees is available on the Company's website in the section: tools/instruments.

4.21. Execution methods:

  • The Client acknowledges that transactions are opened through the trading platform of the Company, which does not guarantee the absence of financial risks. Thus, the Company may not fulfill the order, or it may change the opening or closing price in some cases, including but not limited to cases of a technical failure of the trading platform. Terms and conditions of trade are established exclusively by the Company.
  • Having received an order from the Client, the Company transfers the order for execution. The Company acts independently when executing the order, and not as an agent on behalf of the Client. Despite the fact that the Company can transfer the Client’s instructions to the execution to liquidity providers, the Company is the only execution counterparty to fulfill the Client’s orders according to this Basic Offer.

4.22. Execution time: as indicated in the " Execution Methods " section of this Basic Offer, the Company acts independently and not as an agent on behalf of the Client, therefore the Company is the sole subject to fulfill the Client's orders.

4.23. Probability of execution: as indicated in the "Execution Methods " section of this Basic Offer, the Company acts independently and not as an agent on behalf of the Client, therefore the Company is the sole subject to fulfill the Client's orders.

Although the Company executes all orders placed by Clients, it reserves the right to reject an order of any type.

4.24. Orders: Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Sell Stop, Buy Stop, Stop Loss, Take Profit for a financial instrument are executed as described in the section “Order Execution”.

4.25. The company makes every effort to provide the best execution price for the Clients. The price at which the transaction is concluded may significantly differ from the originally declared price in terms of unstable market conditions. This can happen in the following cases:

  • During the market opening;
  • During the publication of news;
  • During increased market volatility;
  • When prices change significantly during one trading session to such an extent that, according to the rules of the relevant exchange, trading is suspended or limited;
  • In case of a lack of liquidity to execute an order to open a transaction of a specific volume at the stated price.

4.26. The company makes every effort to execute the order of the Client, regardless of the volume of the order. The Client’s order is executed at the best available price if there is sufficient liquidity at the time of execution.

If the Company has complied with the order of the Client, and then found that some provision of the relevant Regulatory Document has been violated, the Company has the right to act in accordance with the relevant Regulatory Document.

5.5. The use of leverage leads to the fact that even the small market fluctuations have a significant impact on the balance in the Client's account.

5.6. The use of Stop orders does not guarantee the limitation of losses to a predetermined level, since market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders at the agreed rate.

5.7. The Company does not provide trust management services, does not give recommendations on trading financial instruments, does not manage customer accounts and does not provide clients with guarantees of no-risk operations when working in financial markets.
