Understanding STP execution on ActTrader
How orders route from the terminal through liquidity hubs to LP fills - latency, hedging, and audit trails.
Straight-through processing (STP) sends client orders to liquidity providers without manual dealing desk intervention - unless your broker runs a B-book or hybrid model.
The path of an order
Terminal → risk check → routing rules → LP or internal fill → confirmation back to the client ledger. Every step is logged for compliance and post-trade review.
Why it matters for brokers
STP reduces operational overhead and supports regulated books that require full audit trails across 30+ jurisdictions ActTrader brokers operate in.
