Latency Benchmarks & Infrastructure Quality

Tradeify's trade routing infrastructure executes through servers colocated in the Chicago metropolitan area close to the CME data engine:

• Primary Data Center: Equinix CH2 (Aurora / Chicago, IL).
• Average Internal Execution Latency: 8ms to 18ms from Chicago VPS instances; 35ms to 55ms from US East Coast; 90ms to 135ms from Western Europe.
• WebSocket Protocol: Tradovate delivers streaming quote updates over secure WebSocket connections (wss://live.tradovate.com/v1/websocket), ensuring zero HTTP polling overhead during fast market open bursts (9:30 AM EST).
• Slippage Tolerances: Market orders executed on high-liquidity contracts (ES, NQ) during regular trading hours typically fill at quoted bid/ask or within 1 tick under standard order book conditions.
