    Fastest commercially available futures platform

    @Lee- , thanks for bringing this up so I may explain. Exch latency is the time difference between the hedge order leaving TT and the time the exchange acknowledges the hedge order. In your example, TT released the hedge order 46us after receiving the quote fill and the exchange acknowledged...
