An execution report benchmarks a brokerage integration with real-money orders placed through LEAN, one order at a time, across asset classes, order types and trading sessions. It breaks down how long the broker took to accept and fill those orders, how many of them filled, and how the fill price compared with the quote at the moment the order was placed — so you can see how a brokerage behaves in live trading before you route capital through it. Reports are published as each brokerage is benchmarked; browse the ones available today.
