CTATech's platform includes a production-grade FIX engine and LP bridge that connects to any FIX 4.4 compliant liquidity provider. When you onboard:
A liquidity provider (LP) is a financial institution — typically a bank, prime broker or prime-of-prime — that provides two-way streaming prices (bid and ask) for trading instruments. Your brokerage connects to one or more LPs to receive live pricing and execute hedged trades. The LP guarantees that all orders sent to them will be filled, eliminating the broker's execution risk for hedged positions.
A prime broker (e.g. Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan) provides liquidity directly from their own balance sheet and requires an institutional relationship, large deposits and strong regulatory profile. A prime-of-prime (PoP) aggregates liquidity from prime brokers and offers it to smaller brokers with lower entry requirements ($10,000–$100,000 deposit). As a new or growing broker, you will almost always start with a PoP.
FIX (Financial Information eXchange) is the standard communication protocol between brokers and LPs. Your platform sends FIX messages to the LP's FIX server to: subscribe to price streams (Market Data Request), submit new orders (New Order Single), and receive execution reports. CTATech's platforms include a pre-built FIX engine that connects to any FIX-compliant LP within hours of onboarding.
Yes — connecting to multiple LPs improves fill rates, allows best-execution routing (route each order to the LP offering the best price at that moment) and provides redundancy if one LP feed goes down. CTATech supports multi-LP configurations with automated best-price selection and failover routing.
CTATech's pre-built LP integrations mean your platform can be live with real pricing in days, not weeks.
FIX engine, multi-LP aggregation and best-execution routing — all included in CTATech's platform.
