The Marketcetera Trading Platform
Trade opportunities disappear in milliseconds. Equity options data feeds now reach 1 million messages per second. Strategies must be continually updated to stay ahead of an increasingly competitive marketplace.
To compete, your trading systems must be agile, easy to implement, fast to adapt, and secure. The Marketcetera Platform allows you to build automated trading systems for equities, equity options and currencies, to maximize the effectiveness of your traders and developers.

Many hedge funds and prop desks address these new challenges with a traditional build-vs-buy mentality. The open-source Marketcetera Platform breaks out of this old model, by providing many of the advantages of proprietary systems, plus the flexibility of custom code.
With the open source Marketcetera Platform you will realize:
- Faster time to roll-out — launch your strategy while the trading opportunity still exists, minimizing opportunity costs
- Flexibility — build proprietary strategies on the Marketcetera foundation, integrate with existing systems, add new features quickly
- Total control — develop in-house or let Marketcetera help, with total code visibility into the platform and the code, giving you control of the entire development process while protecting the secrecy of your trading ideas
