Hey guys,

Anyone have books on market structures: ECN, Dark Pool, DMA, SOR,...
 
My boss at my last firm asked me to read this.
Dark Pools: The Rise of the Machine Traders and the Rigging of the U.S. Stock Market


Thanks for the reply. I read it. I just didn't find it very technical in terms of market structure. Maybe its just me
 
S
ECNs show technical information on their website. IE https://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/support/technical/
Dark Pools do not publicly choose to market helpful information.
DMA is Direct Market Access-that is just access to each exchange and ECN.
I do not know what SOR is.

What do you hope to learn with a book?

SOR = Smart Order Routing

How orders are routed, fees, special order types, spoofing, flashing, how is best execution achieved... maybe a small booklet on all this packed together
 
Here are the routes that we offer on Lightspeed Trader with fees- https://www.lightspeed.com/pricing/routing-fees/
Here are NASDAQ order types-start with this- https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/content/ProductsServices/Trading/OrderTypesG.pdf
You can google for the other terms.

Best execution is achieved by looking at the current market and balance your needs. too complicated for a simple answer.

SMART order router- There are too many of them to describe. On that list, LSPT is one. It scrapes lite exchanges while LSPD scrapes dark. each one at each broker is different.
