Broker Latency Checker — Estimate Your RTT to the Broker DC
Enter your broker
Use these tools to measure latency, compare routes, check sessions, and understand the network layer behind your trading setup.
Trading decisions rely on accurate data. These tools give you a starting point for measuring what your connection is actually doing — not what your ISP promises it does. The broker latency checker estimates your round-trip time to your broker's datacenter before you run a single trade. The ISP route checker traces the network path your packets take to reach that datacenter, so you can see if your carrier is sending traffic the long way. The MT4 datacenter lookup maps broker server hostnames to Equinix colocation codes, which tells you which physical datacentre is processing your orders.
None of these tools require a TradersProxy subscription. Use them to build a baseline understanding of your current network setup, then compare that against your post-proxy numbers once you are connected. The session clock and overlap calculator help with timing decisions — when network quality actually matters is not always when you expect it to.
