What is a broker’s role?
Brokers provide access and liquidity
A broker does not decide where prices go.
Its role is structural.
A broker provides:
- Access to markets
- Liquidity, so buying and selling can happen smoothly
- Execution, matching orders to the market
- Platforms, where traders place orders
The broker acts as a bridge between individuals and the financial market.
Liquidity, in simple terms
Liquidity means the ability to buy or sell without waiting.
High liquidity means:
- many buyers and sellers
- trades happen quickly
- prices are stable and continuous
Brokers help ensure liquidity by connecting traders to large market networks.
What a broker is not
A broker is not:
- your advisor
- your decision-maker
- your guarantee of profit
The broker provides the road —
you decide how to drive.
