DARK POOLS QUOTES BOOK

ITCH PROTOCOL: MARKET DATA FEED IN REAL TIME

ITCH is the ultra-low latency protocol for accessing Real Time Market Data. ITCH has been developed to maximize performance and so meet the requirements of latency sensitive trading strategies. For latency arbitrage this best electronic protocol. For latency arbitrage and HFT, this is one of the fastest methods to get quotes, but at the same time the most expensive.

Connecting via ITCH protocol makes it possible to get quotes directly from the exchange without losing speed and with the maximum possible frequency of data acquisition (1000 updates per second or more).

 View a list of supporting Products for ITCH Protocol.

Benefits Of Using The ITCH Protocol Trading Technology

ITCH is an outbound market data feed only. The ITCH protocol does not support order entry. Timestamps are represented as nanoseconds. Giventhe unshapednetwork traffic, isrequiring firms to have 10 Gb or 40 Gb network connection into the data centers to obtain the ITCH feed.

Truly dark liquidity can be collected off-market in dark pools using ITCH, FIX and FAST protocol based APIs. In finance, a dark pool (also black pool) is a private forum for trading securities, derivatives, and other financial instruments. Liquidity on these markets is called dark pool liquidity. The bulk of dark pool trades represent large trades by financial institutions that are offered away from public exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ, so that such trades remain confidential and outside the purview of the general investing public.

The Westernpips Group company conducts a number of new developments on working with dark pool and high-speed direct connections via ITCH, FIX, FAST, BINARY and other protocols in order to generate the highly profitable algorithmic technologies in HFT trading.
