Why Don’t FYERS Have High Frequency Algo-Trading?
Currently, we are focused on providing a seamless trading experience for retail and active retail traders. While High Frequency Trading (HFT) is not offered at this time, we may explore it in the future depending on demand and regulatory considerations.
What is FYERS' focus regarding trading infrastructure?
We prioritise stability, functionality, and uptime across its trading platforms. The infrastructure is optimised to serve the needs of retail traders and investors, ensuring a smooth, reliable trading experience with high availability and minimal latency.
Does FYERS support High Frequency Trading (HFT)?
No, we do not currently offer support for High Frequency Trading (HFT). HFT is typically associated with institutional-grade trading that involves:
- Ultra-low latency execution
- Co-location services
- Proprietary algorithms with nanosecond response time
If you're developing retail-grade algo strategies, FYERS APIs can still be an excellent starting point. Explore our API documentation on the FYERS Developer Portal.
What If...
| Scenario | Solution |
|---|
| You are an individual algo trader | We offer robust APIs for retail algorithmic trading, but not institutional-level HFT |
| You're waiting for HFT support | HFT may be explored in the future, but there's no committed timeline as of now |
| You require co-location or latency-sensitive solutions | These are not part of the current offering; consider platforms that specialise in institutional services |
