NCDEX to scale its trading, surveillance system for F&O segments

11 Feb 2015 Evaluate

NCDEX, the leading commodities and derivatives exchange, has selected MillenniumIT as its partner for scaling up its trading and surveillance system for futures and forwards (F&O) segments. The new system - NextGen - will provide enhanced functionality, enable additional products and offer trendsetting speed. MillenniumIT is the leading ultralow-latency technology provider and part of the London Stock Exchange Group.

The NextGen system will provide a faster trading engine, perhaps the country’s fastest, giving a big advantage to market participants. The new trading system will give a more dynamic experience to the user with features such as tick-by-tick broadcast and ease of executing complex trading strategies like butterfly and straddles.

Besides, it will also have improved capability to handle high frequency / algo trading. Additionally, it will be able to execute regulatory changes in a quick and efficient manner which will assist in efficient intra-day closure, pre-order checks and order flow monitoring.

NCDEX has chosen MillenniumIT’s multi-asset and ultra-low latency trading solution, Millennium Exchange for its matching engine technology and Millennium Surveillance to detect abnormal trading behavior. Both products are based on Millennium Advanced Platform (MAP).
