Fintech innovation has exploded, fueling a trading revolution. Today, new solutions to persistent trading problems are rapidly coming to the forefront. While built on robust technology, fintech platforms ultimately depend on high-quality, consistent, and fast data streams for delivering their promised impact to end-users. After all, platforms are only as good as the data they serve.

Imagine a data feed so fast it’s almost as if you’re located next door to the exchange—except in this low latency world you can be located anywhere. And it’s not just one exchange, it’s more than 20 North American exchanges all compressed into a single feed. The cherry on top: this accelerated speed and expansive access is affordable, giving you a trading edge while preserving your margins.

It’s not a question of doing away with market intelligence and up-to-the-minute financial data—you must have these to continue operating effectively. But how much data is necessary? And how much should you be willing to pay for it? If you are using a legacy mega-provider, then you could be paying too much for more data than you actually need.
