TickIt Server-Side Order Execution

Because the difference between winning and losing is measured in microseconds.

The best trading strategies in the world won't do you any good unless you can execute them. TickIt’s true server-side order execution provides the speed you need to execute trades that can’t be made with other front-end systems — and compete at the same level with large trading firms.

With a direct link to the exchange’s matching engine, TickIt eliminates the time-consuming data hops inherent in client-side systems ‚ and provides nearly instantaneous order execution.

With TickIt, algorithmic strategies and orders reside on a server directly connected and in close proximity to the exchange server. As a result:

  • The program sees every piece of tick data coming from the exchange — and can react to market updates and execute orders before that information even reaches traditional front-end systems.
  • TickIt provides the same superior server-side execution capabilities to clients around the world — a CME trader in Australia using TickIt has the same advantage as a trader sitting across the street from the exchange.
  • The arms race for bigger, faster data lines and hardware is over — the race now begins at the server and TickIt puts you on the inside track.
