GLOSSARY
Latency
Latency is the time it takes for a forex signal to get from the trading platform (MT4, MT5) to your broker’s server and act on it, if the latency is low your trades will be executed faster.
Meta Trader algorithms receive signals in a fraction of a millisecond. If they get alerts faster than others, they’ll get your jobs done before your competitors.
