Trading Products
FOREX
OANDA offers competitive spreads on 70 forex pairs, including all the majors and minors. Our range of platforms includes the award-winning* OANDA Trade platform, as well as MetaTrader 4 – the preferred platform for forex traders globally.
OANDA offers two pricing models: spread-only and core pricing plus commission. OANDA pricing models are clear and transparent. The pricing engine aggregates live prices, in real time, from our liquidity providers and calculates a mid-point. A custom-built pricing algorithm automatically calculates the spread symmetrically around the midpoint for each tradable instrument on our trading platform. This mid-point fluctuates throughout the day as wholesale prices change.
