Latency Arbitrage is a trading strategy based on the speed of getting quotes and trading at a slower broker. The main task of the trader who uses the strategy of latency arbitrage is to find the fastest data feed provider and set up your server (VPS) so as to get these quotes with minimal loss of speed (ping). To get fast quotes in real time, you need special software connected directly to the exchanges (liquidity providers) using API .Net trading technology.
