Our FX rates are derived from constantly updating sources, including our fxTrade currency trading platform, leading market data vendors, and contributing financial institutions. FX is an over-the-counter (OTC) market, which means that OTC contracts are not executed and cleared on a central exchange as you find for stocks, futures and other listed instruments. This means that the source and quality of FX rates can vary widely between data providers. Our rates might differ from other data providers, as they may make use of a single source or non-tradable rates. We offer actually traded foreign exchange prices to our clients and are recognised globally as the standard for accurate FX data.
