How It Works
What makes our service so incredibly fast?
"As market data volumes continue to rise by almost 100 percent each year, and firms must continue spending more each year on communications and infrastructure to process and distribute the data, they are looking for new solutions." Interactive Data, Communiqué, fall, 2008.
By taking advantage of economies of scale, OnTime Alert is able to provide traders with the results of sophisticated trading strategies at a fraction of the cost and with 99% reliability. How do we do it?
Our servers are physically located (co-located) next to those of Interactive Data Real Time Services at a state of the art data center. This unique set up allows us to receive stock and options data within less than a millisecond of execution. After split second analysis, alerts are sent to your desktop directly over a high capacity Internet Backbone.
Reliability and uninterrupted coverage is achieved by bandwidth that can accommodate 1+ million messages per second throughput and ongoing growth into the future.
"On Time Alert was the perfect solution for meeting the high-paced demands of our intra day trading group. The success of our company is reliant upon our ability to combine our proven proprietary strategies with the power of On Time Alert. Alerts are received within milliseconds of trade execution in a highly reliable and secure manner."
