Build reliable perpetual trading systems with real-time market intelligence
Develop perpetual trading platforms and strategies using normalized market data, historical order books, and unified execution infrastructure across hundreds of exchanges.
Perpetual trading involves buying and selling perpetual futures contracts that have no expiration date.
Traders rely on continuous market access, deep liquidity, and fast execution to manage leveraged positions while adapting to changing market conditions.
Perpetual markets operate 24/7, and prices can change within milliseconds.
Traders need constant visibility into liquidity, market depth, and price movements while executing orders efficiently across multiple exchanges. Maintaining reliable infrastructure at this speed is a significant challenge.
Use normalized trades, quotes, and Level 1–3 order books to evaluate liquidity before placing perpetual trades and reduce the risk of poor execution.
Replay historical market activity through Historical APIs and Flat Files to analyze how strategies perform during volatile markets and changing liquidity conditions.
Use the EMS API to manage orders, positions, balances, and execution reports through one unified workflow across supported exchanges.
Compare perpetual markets using normalized pricing together with the Indexes API and Exchange Rates API to identify pricing differences and benchmark conditions.
Expand to additional perpetual trading venues using standardized APIs instead of building and maintaining separate exchange integrations.
