I keep hearing conflicting reports about IC’s execution quality during high volatility. The platform claims 35ms average but some traders mention requotes. Has anyone analyzed the community’s live slippage data around events like NFP or FOMC?
How does their MT5 server performance compare to Pepperstone or FP Markets in the historical reports?
Check July 2024 ECB report filters
Community data shows 78ms median execution during March 2024 NFP
Pepperstone: 55ms
FP Markets: 63ms
IC’s main advantage is rejection rates - only 2.1% vs Pepperstone’s 4.8% during same event
Use the platform’s server latency map to identify which IC node has fastest routing for your region
Their asian session speeds are better than european
Tested all three brokers during last CPI release

Pepperstone:

Depends if you value speed or order certainty more
