Genesis Releases New Genesis Trading Protocol

Genesis Securities, LLC. is proud to announce the release of a new order entry protocol, entitled GTP, or Genesis Trading Protocol.

GTP is utilized to communicate with Genesis’ execution servers. With GTP, orders can be entered via a simple text format. This minimizes programming time, as the order entry syntax does not require advanced coding or FIX knowledge. All GTP orders are sent to the Genesis system directly, bypassing any extra servers, which results in increased speed and greater stability.

GTP is both platform and programming environment neutral. It works with any OS whether MS-Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS, or .Net, as well as any programming language. “The protocol will create greater compatibility for our clients. They will be able to connect to us using any system and will not be limited to our API or FIX,” said Ken He, Chief Technology Officer for Genesis Securities, LLC.

“With the release of GTP, we are now positioning Genesis as the premier provider of automated trading strategies for both institutional and retail clients,” said William Yeh, President and CEO of Genesis Securities, LLC. “The new protocol facilitates ease of use and faster order processing. This, combined with Genesis’ direct access lines and ultra low transaction costs, establishes Genesis as a leader in the automated trading field”.

When compared to FIX, GTP is much quicker in terms of order transmission time, as well as more intuitive in terms of programming. GTP supports any type of automated trading strategy, including black box and gray box, as well as any interactive front end.

The Protocol is available for download from Genesis’ website: www.gndt.com
