Managing latency of messages in an exchange system
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11995719B1) discloses a computer-implemented method for adjusting messaging latency in an electronic exchange system. The method involves receiving electronic order messages from market participants, identifying the order type associated with the message, and applying a latency duration to Trade at Settlement (TAS) orders to reduce the technical computing speed advantage of market participants over market makers. This adjustment allows market makers time to adjust TAS quotes by delaying subsequent TAS orders until a settlement time is reached.
The patent also describes an electronic exchange system designed to manage message latency from market participants. The system includes a communication interface, a processor, and memory with processor-executable instructions. The processor identifies order types, determines TAS order latency timing, retrieves parameters for calculating latency duration, and applies the latency to TAS orders. By reducing the speed advantage of market participants, particularly over market makers who have entered TAS quotes, the system aims to create a fairer trading environment by allowing market makers time to adjust their quotes. The system can adjust latency duration and start time based on market participant identifiers, ensuring flexibility in managing message latency effectively.
