Cross-Exchange Routing
Cross-Exchange Routing is a technical strategy used to split and route orders across multiple exchanges to achieve the best aggregate price. This approach is essential for large traders who cannot find sufficient liquidity on a single platform.
The routing system continuously monitors the order books of various exchanges and dynamically adjusts where to send order fragments. This minimizes market impact and maximizes the chances of achieving a favorable average execution price.
In the fragmented world of digital assets, sophisticated routing is a key differentiator for institutional-grade trading platforms. It allows for the consolidation of liquidity that would otherwise be inaccessible.
