Advantages of using Real Time Markets
Real Time Markets offers a unique niche in the financial world. We
are providing a "dynamic monitor" where a user can watch 20 symbols
continuously updating without having to "refresh" your screen. We
are providing scrolling news headlines with text recall. Charting,
Portfolios, Company Reports, Market Statistics and more!!
Technology:
We are not a browser based system. We are
utilizing a software connection which is actively monitored on the
server end. Our advantage: We are able to move users from one
server to another flawlessly. Their disadvantage: If you have ever
been on the internet during a federal reserve board statement, you
must have experienced the HTTP error 404, the pages slow to fill or
not filling at all.
Speed:
We are using a push protocol rather than
broadcast. Our advantage: We are only sending you the data you are
requesting - even if you request hundreds of quotes with a single
click. Their disadvantage: Broadcast feeds send all data from A
through Z, causing bottleneck during heavy trading activity.
Direct from the Source:
Our advantage: we are using
the same data feed direct from the exchanges that is used by
hundreds of traders on the floor of the NYSE. Their disadvantage:
Some vendors get their data feeds from a third-party vendor, what
happens if that connection has problems? And for the other vendors
who get the data from the exchanges like we do - ask them how many
units they have on the floor of the exchange: their answer is bound
to be
zero.
