What Happens When you Click BUY in Forex

You click BUY on your forex trading platform. A moment later, your EUR/USD trade is open. But what actually happens between those two moments?

In this video, we take you behind the scenes of forex trade execution to explain what happens to your order after you click BUY, how your broker handles it, and why the price you receive might not be the price you expected.

We follow a forex order from your trading platform through the broker’s execution process, exploring how orders may be handled internally, routed to external liquidity providers, hedged, or managed through a combination of methods. The exact process depends on the broker and its execution arrangements.

In this video, you’ll learn:

- What happens when you click BUY: How your trading platform sends an order instruction to your broker and how that order becomes an open position.

- How forex brokers execute trades: The differences between A-Book and B-Book models, market makers, STP, ECN, and external liquidity providers.

- What bid and ask prices mean: Why buying and selling prices differ and how the spread affects your trade.

- Why forex slippage happens: How fast-moving markets, low liquidity, and major news releases can cause your execution price to differ from the price you saw.

- Market orders vs limit orders: Why a market order prioritises execution while a limit order prioritises price, without guaranteeing a fill.

- What happens to your stop-loss: Why a stop-loss trigger does not always guarantee an exit at the exact price you selected during fast markets.

- Why broker execution quality matters: What to consider beyond advertised spreads, including commissions, financing costs, slippage, and how orders are handled.

A forex trade is more than a button on a screen. Behind that click is an execution process involving prices, order handling, available liquidity, and the systems your broker uses to manage trades.

Understanding that process can help you make more informed decisions when comparing forex brokers—and understand why two trades placed at seemingly identical prices may not always receive the same execution.
