Quote Feeds are continuous, real-time streams of pricing information for crypto assets and derivatives, providing current bid and ask prices, along with their corresponding sizes, available in the market. They represent the immediate state of market liquidity.
Mechanism
These feeds function by aggregating data directly from multiple liquidity sources, including centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, and over-the-counter (OTC) desks. They consolidate bid-ask spreads and depth, transmitting updates rapidly to connected trading systems via specialized APIs or high-speed network connections, ensuring minimal latency in information delivery.
Methodology
The strategic application of quote feeds is fundamental for informed decision-making in crypto investing and institutional trading operations. They enable accurate price discovery, facilitate smart order routing to optimal liquidity venues, and underpin real-time risk management models. These feeds provide the essential data layer for automated execution algorithms and options pricing models that rely on immediate market insights.
