Advantages For Businesses

FX Limit Orders

Imagine the current Spot Rate for AUD/USD is 0.80. You want to make a payment of USD 100,000 but desire a better rate than 0.80. You place an order to buy USD 100,000 at 0.81 and the order is fulfilled when American Express achieves the target.

Stop Loss Order

Imagine you’re concerned that the AUD/USD exchange rate may fall, so you place an order at 0.79 Stop Loss Rate. If the AUD/USD starts to fall, your order will be fulfilled at the first available price American Express can reach.

One Cancels Other Order – FX Limit

You place an FX Order at a target rate of AUD/USD 0.81 and a Stop Loss Order at a rate of 0.79. If American Express can obtain 0.81 within the timeframe specified then the Limit Order is fulfilled and the Stop Loss is cancelled.
