SMArtX INSTITUTIONAL SERVICES

The retail investor’s trading speed is often said to come a distant second to the fast-paced order routing of institutional investors. Investment firms have even been set up physically closer to exchange to cut down on the time it takes for a trade to reach the datacenter. This type of speed is even more relevant in today’s volatile market as sharp intra-day moves means trading T+1, later in the afternoon, or even in the next hour can mean missed opportunity and large amounts of lost client capital. After all, how can you allocate on a dip if the trade doesn’t get executed for one, two, or even three days? However, retail investors no longer need to be subject to delayed trading and the feeling of futility as the market moves away from them.
