Is the trading speed of the US stock market slow? How to improve transaction efficiency through dedicated network lines??? Solution//Global IPLC service provider of Shigeng Communication
一、In the fiercely competitive US stock market, trading delays often mean missed opportunities and increased risks. Especially for cross-border traders, network latency has become a key factor affecting transaction effectiveness.
This article will analyze the root causes of trading delays in the US stock market and explore in depth how to improve trading efficiency through dedicated network technology, providing solutions for investors who pursue high-speed and stable trading experiences.
1. The pain of delayed US stock trading
The US stock market adopts complex electronic trading systems, and the trading process involves information exchange between multiple trading platforms and exchanges. These systems require time for data transmission and processing when dealing with massive transaction data, resulting in transaction delays.
The large number of market participants exacerbates this problem. The US stock market has a large group of investors, including individual investors, institutional investors, and trading platforms. The trading instructions between numerous participants need to be queued for processing, especially during periods of significant market volatility, when the number of trading instructions increases and the processing time correspondingly prolongs.
The characteristics of global transactions also bring challenges. US stock trading involves investors and trading platforms from all over the world, and the network transmission time difference caused by regional differences will increase trading latency. In cross-border transactions, the differences in time zones and working hours result in longer transmission and processing times for transaction information.
2. Multiple factors behind delay
The root cause of transaction delay is complex, mainly including various factors such as technical facilities, network environment, and market structure. When investors submit trading instructions, the instructions need to go through multiple stages before they can be executed, and each stage may experience delays.
The network transmission speed is the primary influencing factor. Due to the large spatial span between China and the United States, data needs to be transmitted through multiple network nodes and switches, and the physical distance itself will cause certain delays. An unstable network environment can further affect the transmission speed of trading instructions, resulting in slow response of the trading system.
The technical facilities and processing capabilities of the exchange are equally crucial. If the exchange's system cannot process a large number of orders in a timely manner, it will lead to an increase in delays. When the market fluctuates greatly, the processing volume of trading instructions will increase, thereby increasing the burden on the system.
Regulatory and risk control measures may also introduce certain delays. To ensure market fairness and stability, the US Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory agencies have implemented a series of regulatory measures and risk control measures, which require time to process.
3. Private network dedicated line: a sharp sword to solve latency problems
The dedicated network service significantly reduces trading latency through various technological means, providing professional solutions for US stock traders.
The point-to-point direct fiber optic solution provides optimal performance. Directly pull point-to-point fiber optic cables from the customer to the service provider's data center. As it is a dedicated fiber optic line, the network speed is fast and stable. Although this solution has a high cost, it can provide the most stable and fast connection experience.
The VPN plus international dedicated line solution balances cost and performance. On the basis of the customer's existing network line, a VPN is first installed in the service provider's data center, and then the US server is accessed through an international dedicated line. This method reduces costs while ensuring performance, but performance is affected by the quality of the line from the customer to the service room.
Professional network acceleration services provide practical solutions for individual investors. Internet acceleration lines provided by some professional companies are dedicated to solving the network speed problem in international stock trading such as US stock trading. These services typically have network fees that are only half of traditional network operators, while providing better network performance and stability.
4. The working principle and performance advantages of dedicated network lines
Private network dedicated lines achieve transaction acceleration through various technological optimizations, and their performance advantages are obvious.
Routing optimization is one of the core technologies. The optimization level of BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) routing provided by high-quality service providers will significantly affect the stability of intercontinental data transmission. By selecting the optimal transmission path and reducing the number of nodes that data packets pass through, transmission latency can be significantly reduced.
Low latency network technology (LLN) further enhances performance. The low latency network options provided by certain service providers can reduce packet loss rates from 0.3% to below 0.01%, which is crucial for algorithmic transactions. Professional grade VPS can achieve direct connection to exchanges through dedicated lines, controlling the transmission delay of market trends within 3 milliseconds.
The popularity of edge computing architecture has brought new possibilities. Some VPS service providers have deployed micro data centers around exchanges in Chicago, New Jersey, and other areas, further reducing latency to sub millisecond levels. This close range deployment greatly reduces the physical distance and time of data transmission.
With the maturity of 5G millimeter wave communication and silicon photonics technology, real-time financial data transmission will break through physical limits in the future. The deployment of micro data centers around exchanges such as Chicago and New Jersey may further compress latency to sub millisecond levels.
Time is money, no longer a metaphor in US stock trading, but a harsh reality. The private network dedicated line service has transformed from a luxury item to a necessity for serious traders, dividing the digital divide between ordinary investors and professional traders.
