www.ONN.tv Explores High-Speed Trading Infrastructure with 7ticks

Kevin Cook, host of ONN.tv’s Mark2Market programming invited Scott Caudell of 7ticks to talk about the financial IT company’s “invasion of Europe.” 7ticks, the leading provider of high-performance trading network solutions, opened a new data center in Frankfurt, Germany to give their clients faster, more reliable access to markets on the Eurex derivatives exchange. Caudell, CTO for 7ticks, explained that building electronic trading infrastructure in “proximity” to a financial exchange provides institutional market participants who use the 7ticks network the most advanced, “low latency” technology for their order flow.

“Our networks help traders by giving them the ability to locate a server in Frankfurt, on top of the exchange, for the fastest access available to host their software programs and run their strategies—algorithms, grey-box, black-box, even click trading,” said Caudell. Cook also asked him if their solution is “just enough” bandwith or “more than enough” to serve the growing trend of automated, “algo” trading and what the 7ticks strategy for 2009 looks like to bring high-performance market access to the rest of the world.
