TabTrade Highlights Average Spreads as Key Metric in New Broker Launch 

A new entrant has appeared in the retail forex brokerage sector. 

TabTrade, operated by TabTrade Ltd (company number 2025-00919), has launched with a trading model that places significant emphasis on average spreads rather than minimum spreads. 

The company reports an average spread of 0.0 pips on major currency pairs, including EURUSD. 

Average Spreads vs Minimum Spreads 

In broker marketing, minimum spreads often receive the most attention. However, these figures typically reflect ideal market conditions and may appear only briefly during periods of high liquidity. 

Benjamin Boulter, founder of TabTrade, said the company chose to highlight average spreads because they better reflect real trading conditions. 

“Average spreads provide a broader view of pricing across multiple trading sessions and market environments,” Boulter said. 

TabTrade appears to be building its positioning around this metric. 

Execution Targets on Account Tiers 

Alongside spreads, the broker has published execution targets for its trading accounts. 

Three account types are currently available: 

Standard Account and Edge Account 
• Target execution speed: under 30 milliseconds 

VIP Account 
• Target execution speed: under 20 milliseconds 

Execution speed is particularly relevant for traders using automated strategies or short-duration trading systems. 

Infrastructure 

According to the company, the trading environment is connected through Equinix LD4 and LD5 data centers in London, utilizing a VPS solution to provide 1 millisecond latency and 100% uptime. 

“These facilities host a significant portion of global electronic trading infrastructure and are commonly used by financial institutions and liquidity providers,” Boulter said. 

The broker also supports FIX API connectivity, allowing external trading systems to connect directly to the platform. 

Platforms and Roadmap 

TabTrade launches on MetaTrader 5. 

The company has also indicated that TradingView and cTrader integrations are planned as part of a multi-platform expansion. 

Regulation 

TabTrade is led by fintech entrepreneur Benjamin Boulter and operates under the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) in Saint Lucia. 

The company states that client funds are held in segregated accounts.
