Alpari Group announces advanced trading platforms Alpari Direct Pro and Alpari Direct

Alpari, one of the world’s fastest growing providers of online foreign exchange (FOREX) services, will launch two advanced trading platforms by the end of August, offering high-speed and direct access to the international currency market for Alpari clients and other institutional and retail customers. Powered by trading technology provider Currenex®, Alpari Direct Pro will be offered to institutional clients while Alpari Direct will be offered to retail customers.

True to Alpari’s commitment to providing clients with institutional-level services, both platforms will feature Straight Through Processing (STP), Non Dealing Desk execution (NDD), 1 click Executable Streaming Prices (ESP), accurate pricing with fractional pips and integrated algorithmic models that enable enhanced levels of execution. These features will ensure high speed and low latency execution and will empower traders to optimize market impact and reduce execution costs. An integrated Dow Jones feed will keep users up-to-date with current news.

Further to this, Alpari Direct Pro, the execution interface for institutional clients, will provide traders with access to a deep liquidity pool, which aggregates feeds from over 60 global banks and multiple Electronic Communications Networks (ECNs). Alpari Direct Pro shows traders the full market depth and also features 24 order types (including advanced orders such as pegged orders), which empower traders to take control of order timing and execution. In addition, this institutional platform offers intuitive and fast keypad trading capabilities, pre- and post-trade allocation solutions, trade averaging capabilities and sophisticated order management, allocation and advanced reporting tools.


Alpari’s platforms are created using Currenex technology. Currenex is a recognized and award-winning leader in providing trading solutions to the active-trading segment of the FX market.

Commenting on the new platforms, Andrey Vedikhin, Co-Founder of the Alpari Group, said: “Alpari Direct Pro and Alpari Direct represent another step towards Alpari’s goal of providing an institutional level trading experience for all. Alpari now provides its clients with one of the most comprehensive selections of advanced trading tools, expert educational resources and responsive customer services available from any online FX trading provider.”
