What is Direct
Access Trading?
Direct Access Trading allows the trader to trade directly with market participants, such as exchanges and ECNs. Instead of routing your order to a market maker who will then mark-up or mark-down your trade, you have the ability to see and trade with the actual quotes in the market. There is no middleman. For Active traders this translates into superior execution and lower cost.
Is all Direct Access Trading
the same?
Absolutely Not! While DAT has the same idea, the speed at which your order is executed depends on the system used and the speed of the lines. The faster the system, the faster the lines, and the faster the execution. Moreover, Direct Access Trading is about choices. Not all DAT Brokers and software provide a multitude of DAT choices. Genesis is one of the most "connected" Direct Access Brokers available. This provides the trader not only with speed but also with choice.
