Market Execution

With Market Execution, your order is matched within seconds and sent for execution via liquidity generated through ICM Direct, ensuring real price efficiency. As there is no central exchange in the forex market, liquidity is accumulated via Tier 1 global banks and market leading liquidity providers.

With Market Execution you achieve the best available price currently on the market, along with the opportunity to open the order at a better price, referred to as ‘positive slippage’. Please note, this could also mean your order is filled at a different price to the one originally shown.

Expert Advisors

At ICM Capital all clients can benefit from auto trading. The expert advisor (EA) in the terminal are programmes written in MetaQuotes Language 4 which allow them to analyse and trade in automatic mode on behalf of the client.

ICM Capital is not liable for any trading loss experienced when using the EA option and at our sole discretion we may de-activate this feature if the client is deemed to be using the feature for abusive purposes. Please note that ICM Capital does not provide personal investment advice, and that individuals should seek independent advice where needed.

Gapping/Slippage

‘Gapping’ refers to a scenario where the market moves from one quoted price to a second quote that is significantly different to the first. In the event of this occurring, and where the second quote is through an order level (Stop Loss, Limit or New Order), and the first quote was not, this may trigger a gapping event.

There are a variety of reasons why this can occur. Some are more usual, because the underlying market on which the order is placed has opened and begun trading at a price significantly different from the previous session’s closing price.

However, it could be because during trading hours the underlying market may have become unusually volatile or illiquid for a period of time causing sudden price movements. Alternatively, the underlying market may have gapped due to a piece of economic, political, environmental or corporate news.

Moreover, we recommend clients limit their exposure when holding positions over the weekend, prior to the market closing, or preceding the release of any political events, and remain aware that such gaps could occur during these periods.

Stop-out Levels

The above stop out levels are applicable under normal forex trading conditions. ICM Capital reserves the right to amend the above spreads according to market conditions as per our terms and conditions.

Swap Free Accounts

We offer Islamic accounts to clients who are part of the Muslim faith. Forex Islamic accounts are also known as swap-free accounts as they imply no swap or rollover interest on overnight positions, which is strictly against Islamic beliefs.

ICM Capital reserve the right to discontinue an Islamic/SWAP-free account without warning. ICM Capital will invoke this right in case of suspicion of abuse, which may result in ICM Capital, at its sole discretion, decide to close all open positions in the account, deduct or add swaps for all transactions currently and/or previously made in the account and decline from accepting any further requests from the client to be exempted from SWAP. All users of swap-free accounts must agree with our terms and conditions.
