Our technologically advanced brokerage firm has built robust, performance engineered trading solutions through innovation, precision, transparency, and a client-centered vision.
CITRIUS™ is a quote delivery system that was designed to revolutionize the world of financial technology.
Features include:
Latency: Runs at an average of 75 Microseconds through box latency under load.
Throughput: sustained output of 1 Gigabit/second, and 1.2 Million Messages/second.
High Availability: Each market data feed runs in an N+1 high-availability model which means each client can reconnect, in the event of failure, to a hot standby server for their market data.
Per-Symbol Subscription Services: CITRIUS™ is a subscription-based platform allowing clients to request quotes on a per-security basis. This allows clients to customize the feed to receive only the symbols they desire.
Book State Replay / Book Resynchronization: CITRIUS™ keeps book state internally. When subscription requests are performed, CITRIUS™ first sends a "Start-of-Book" message, and then replays a current snapshot of the book followed with an "End-of-Book" message, which is followed with real-time quotes. This allows clients to subscribe to symbols intraday without requiring rewinds to reconstitute current book state.
Network: CITRIUS™ is supported by Lime’s state-of-the-art network that provides ultra-fast connectivity and data delivery of equity, option, and CME future book feeds, as well as consolidated feeds.
Lime Brokerage provides traders with multiple market access options for equities and options trading designed around the clients’ needs. Whether you prefer to leverage Lime’s state-of-the art connectivity to market centers or co-locate directly at exchanges, Lime has a solution.
CITRIUS™, as with all Lime systems, was developed using a best practices approach. Its design was scrutinized through a rigorous functional, architectural, and detailed design process. This true product-level discipline is what continues to make Lime Brokerage a leader in high-performance, low-latency electronic trading technology.
