Trading proxy in London

Choose London as your broker’s city if your broker’s trade server is there.

We have a server in London. You connect to our server nearest you, and you choose your broker’s city in your dashboard. The software on our servers is our own, so no one else’s proxy sits between you and your broker.

Choose London if your broker’s trade server is there. The server your platform logs in to when you place an order. That city matters most, because our help is on our server’s connection to your broker. If you also trade near London, you connect to that same server.

Our server in London connects locally and recovers lost data there.

Our server’s city matters when the internet loses part of your order. When you click Buy, your order crosses the internet to your broker as small pieces of data.

Sometimes the internet loses a piece. Your computer waits, then sends it again, all the way to your broker. If that copy is lost too, it waits twice as long.

Everything sent after it waits as well. In a busy moment, this is what delays price updates and holds up your next order.

Our server in London makes a separate local connection to your broker. If data drops on that local link, our server recovers it inside London. Trading ports go first when a server is busy, and dead sockets are cleared fast.

Our server also sends your order out as soon as it arrives. It isn’t held back to bundle with other data, which is how standard settings can delay a small order.

If your broker is in another city, pick that city instead.

You can trade from London and still pick any city on our list as your broker’s city. The distance to your broker sets the shortest time an order can take.

If you trade from London, your broker in Amsterdam is about 360 km away in a straight line. An order then needs at least 4 milliseconds to reach your broker and get an answer back. No proxy, VPS or internet plan can beat that.

For a broker in New York, about 5,570 km away, the minimum is 56 milliseconds. A longer path to your broker means a longer wait whenever your computer recovers lost data.

Select your broker’s city so lost data near your broker is recovered inside that city, not from London. Your data still travels the whole way, so the distance floor stays the same. Paid plans never share servers with free accounts.

If your broker’s trade server is in a city we don’t list, we have no server there. Traders Proxy is then a weaker fit.

Three steps set you up, with nothing to install.

These steps send your platform’s connection to your broker through our London server.

If you picked the wrong broker’s city, change it any time, and your four values stay the same. Restart your platform to use the new city straight away. We never move you to a different city without asking.

You can see whether it helps before you rely on it.

Time how long your platform takes to connect and show live prices, once without us and once with us. Our connection check shows how.

If the two times match, you don’t need us. The problem shows up in busy sessions, so the best time to compare is a big news release. Most weeks bring one.

Know these five limits before you pay.

• It does not change your ping, the time data takes there and back. We don’t promise lower ping. Distance sets the minimum. Be wary of anyone who promises it.
• It does not change your own internet. The connection from you to our server is only as good as your internet, so a weak Wi-Fi signal stays weak.
• It does not touch anything outside your trading app. Only the trading app you set up uses Traders Proxy. Everything else stays on your normal internet, so your plan’s data goes on trading.
• It does not change your broker’s rules. If your broker prohibits proxies, don’t use one. Check your broker’s terms before you start.
• It does not keep a platform running with your computer off. If an expert advisor must run while your computer is off, you need a VPS. See proxy or VPS compared.
