NZD/CZK Cost as a Percent of the Trading Range
Trading Range is the interpretation of the total price variation of trades for distinct timeframes and volatilities. The values are achieved by discovering the ratio amongst the total price and the volatility value; it is expressed as a percentage.
ECN Model Account
Spread = 43 | Slippage = 5 |Trading fee = 8
Total cost = Slippage + Spread + Trading Fee = 3 + 43 + 8 = 56
STP Model Account
Spread = 48 | Slippage = 5 | Trading fee = 0
Total cost = Slippage + Spread + Trading Fee = 5 + 48 + 0 = 53
Trading the NZD/CZK
The bigger the percentage values, the higher is the price on the trade. From the preceding tables, we can see that the values are sizeable in the min column and relatively less significant in the maximum column. This means that the prices are high when the volatility of the market is low.
It is neither suitable to trade when the market’s volatility is elevated nor when the costs are high. To balance out between both these aspects, it is perfect to trade when the volatility of the pair is in the array of the average values.
Additionally, to decrease your costs even beyond, you may place trades using limit orders as a substitute for market orders. In executing so, the slippage will not be involved in the computation of the total costs. And this will put down the cost of the trades by a sizeable number. An example of the same is given below.
STP Model Account (Using Limit Orders)
Spread = 48 | Slippage = 0 |Trading fee = 0
Total cost = Slippage + Spread + Trading Fee = 0 + 48 + 0 = 48
