How does BROCO react to news trading? Are orders executed immediately?

Broco should be able to deliver the goods with Broco Investor and Strategy Runner ECN accounts.
I haven't heard comments from Broco company, nor did I hear traders discussing news trading with this broker.

Do you know brokers that execute correctly pending orders price, stop losses and take profit during the price gap?


BrokerGuru

It is unlikely that any broker would guarantee Stop losses or Limit orders during price gaps.

To be able to honour your stops/limits there should be a counter-party to Buy&Sell from/to you at exact price level.

It's possible to achieve with a Market Maker broker, who can be your counter-party at any time, including times when the market gaps, if they choose to take extra steps to guarantee stops and pending order to clients.

With ECN brokers, when you have no counter-party to buy/sell at the price you need to, then, unfortunately, as the market gaps, your orders won't be filled until a new price enters the market as soon as the gap is over.
