Location is connectivity — and London is where forex lives. The UK handles 37.8% of global daily FX turnover — about $4.7 trillion a day, more than any other center on earth (BIS Triennial Survey, April 2025). Nearly every major broker, bank, and ECN runs its matching engine in the Equinix LD4/LD5 campus in Slough, just west of London. When a broker says “London server,” that campus is almost always what they mean.
Our London node sits in Telehouse Docklands — the primary home of the London Internet Exchange (LINX) and the most densely connected data-center campus in Europe, with 800+ connectivity partners and every Tier 1 carrier. That gives your VPS short, low-jitter routes across the UK and Europe and a fast, well-peered hop to the LD4/LD5 broker campus.

A few milliseconds, measured from our box to brokers in the LD4/LD5 region — see the table above for median and p99 per broker. The exact number depends on your broker, which server you select, and time of day. We publish measured figures rather than a sub-1 ms marketing number we can’t deliver from Docklands.
