Features

Anonymity

• Market Anonymity – All customer orders are funneled into a common MPID and Port as they are sent to the markets.
• Customer Anonymity – Order flow goes through dedicated Lightspeed Gateway hardware creating network and hardware segregation between customers.
• Lightspeed Anonymity – Lightspeed does not engage in proprietary trading. We are a technology provider with no conflict of interest.

NASDAQ Co-Located Datacenter

Lightspeed Gateway’s infrastructure is located within Verizon’s Carteret,  NJ datacenter. Co-location provides Lightspeed Gateway clients zero external network “hop” access to NASDAQ, offering a tremendous performance gain in NASDAQ-bound orders.

Multi-Venue Accessibility

Lightspeed Gateway has direct connections to all major U.S. equities markets, ECN’s and ATS’s.  Our extensive connectivity with other market centers delivers comprehensive  market data and execution solutions.

Risk Management 

All account rules have been uniquely coded to minimize latency.  These rules monitor risk associated with buying power, buying power factor, maximum order size, maximum position size, P&L loss thresholds, short checking, odd lot allowances / restrictions and settings to reject all incoming orders.

System Availability, Scalability and Recoverability

Lightspeed Gateway’s dynamic architecture is  highly dependable during volatile markets with an average up-time  of 99.99%.  Scalability has been addressed via the distributed system design.   Recoverability is an absolute requirement for Lightspeed Gateway.  All of the components of Lightspeed Gateway’s infrastructure are either stateless or can perform a full rewind, which is a key requirement for recoverability.
