Algorithmic & Electronic Trading

If you are trading electronically, then microseconds matter. ACTIV's market data system is amongst the lowest latency solutions available on the street. But just publishing through raw exchange data direct from the exchanges still requires that you source supporting data from alternate feeds, or that your firm (or perhaps even you personally) wastes a good bit of time cleansing data.

For Automated Trading, ACTIV provides:

 

Low Latency	Industry leading latencies without compromise. And in fact, the ActivFeed MPU delivers sub-100 microsecond latencies on over 3 million+ messages/second, including order books.
Normalized API Interface	Normalized market data streams, so that your applications can consistently point to the same API across exchanges. And as exchanges change their specs, let ACTIV do the work for you.
Record & Update Filtering	Powerful APIs, so only the instruments you are trading need to be pulled into your application, freeing up CPU cycles to speed your trading application. ACTIV's APIs can also filter on message type, so if you only care about quotes, or only about trades, just get the data you need.
Exchange Co-Location	Co-Location at major exchange facilities around the world, or implement your own ACTIV system right in your datacenter or cage.
Hosting	Hosting services for your applications directly in ACTIV's cage, or a cross-connect away.
Cost Savings	Where your feed requirements may not justify your own direct exchange feeds, the Hosted ActivFeedDirect service allows your firm to leverage ACTIV's investment in exchange feeds and co-location facilities.
