cTrader platform features
In market orders execution the slippage between the price that you see in the terminal and the price of execution may occur. Moreover, such slippage can also be in your favor. Since the system can provide you with high liquidity, this slippage, under the normal conditions, either does not exist at all or is immaterial. Under low liquidity or explosive volatility conditions, the slippage is generally higher than on a quiet market.

Stop order
Once the price reaches the stop order level in the cTrader, a request for an order execution would be transmitted via the bridge to the trading system, where the order would be executed at the best market price of the liquidity providers at the moment the order reaches the system. Thus, in case of stop orders, as well as in case of execution of market order, slippage between the stop price and price of execution may occur. Moreover, slippage can also be in your favor. More information about the market execution features can be read above.

Limit order
Once the price reaches the limit order level in the cTrader, a request for the order execution is transmitted via the bridge to the trading system. Please note that a partial execution of the order is possible. For example, you want to buy 200 lots EUR / USD at 1.27500. If only 100 lots at this price are available for buying, the total volume of your transaction will be 100 lots (not 200 lots), which is the volume that is currently available on the market. Obviously, you are likely to encounter partial execution only when dealing with large volume transactions.
Also, please note that if you use a limit order facility, you will never get a price worse than the one that was stated in your order i.e, you will either get your order executed at the requested price or at the better price.

Contracts specifications
1 Maximum volume of a transaction expressed in lot.
2 The figures in columns represent the quantity of points charged to a customer’s open position if it is rolled over to the following day. These values are calculated based on differences between short-term interest rates. Since the value date is the second business day after a transaction is entered into, Monday next week is the value date for transactions entered on Wednesday. Accordingly, from Wednesday to Thursday swaps are charged in triple size.
3 Collateral for a lock position is calculated as follows: For example, we have an open buy position of 1.0 EUR/USD and a sell position of 1.0 EUR/USD; for this lock position (with leverage of 1 to 100) for МТ4 collateral will be 250 EUR + 250 EUR = 500 EUR.
4 In the period from 23:55 till 00:15 EET (bank rollover) liquidity is reducing, spread, minimum distance of customer orders and processing time may be increased, trading switched to "close only" mode, complete prohibition of new trading operations.
