What is an ECN Account!?
An ECN account is a trading account that connects traders directly with liquidity providers (LPs) through the ECN (Electronic Communication Network) model.
Without a dealing desk, you can trade at highly transparent prices
that reflect the market rates streamed from multiple LPs.
