Fast Trade Execution At Best Available Market Price

Risk warning: Forex and CFD trading involve a high risk of loss. T&Cs apply.

Execution speed affects the outcome of a trade, which is why you have to treat it with the same importance as our spreads and prices.

Why Volity?

Highly Competitive Overnight Positions: Holding a position overnight may incur a rollover interest, known as a swap fee. These fees are primarily determined by the interest rate differential between traded currencies or the leverage cost for non-Forex CFD products. Swap rates are either received or charged based on your position side (long or short). No swap charges apply to CFDs on future contracts.

Trading Hours, Weekends Included: Crypto, gold (XAU/USD), silver (XAG/USD), WTI oil, S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 and SpaceX trade 24/7, including Saturdays and Sundays. Forex trading is available 24/5. CFDs on other precious metals, stocks, commodities, energies and indices trade Monday to Friday, with times depending on the asset. The trading hours of every instrument are shown in its specification in Volity MT.

Execution Policy

How orders are executed at Volity / UBK Markets

The Order Execution Policy describes how UBK Markets routes and fills client orders to obtain the best possible result on a consistent basis. Best execution under MiFID II Article 27 considers price, costs, speed, likelihood of execution and settlement, size, and any other relevant consideration. The policy applies to all asset classes Volity supports.

What does best execution mean in practice?

It means UBK Markets must take all sufficient steps to obtain the best result for clients, weighted across the relevant factors. For most retail orders in liquid CFDs, price and total cost dominate. For larger sizes or in less liquid instruments, likelihood of execution becomes more important. The policy lists the venue selection logic for each instrument class.

Where can I see the actual execution venues?

The Order Execution Policy lists the primary venue and any backup venues used for each instrument class, plus the criteria UBK uses to select among them. Updates to the venue list are notified per the policy. Execution-quality reports are published quarterly per RTS 27 / RTS 28 requirements.
