Trade order submission for electronic trading
Various systems and methods for trade order processing in an electronic trading environment are provided. The order processing includes initiating a first thread of instructions at a computing device to send a first trade order onto an electronic exchange. However, if one or more trade orders are identified during the process to send the first trade order, then the one or more orders are queued. When the first trade order is sent to the electronic exchange, then a second thread of instructions is initiated at the computing device to send the queued one or more trade orders (substantially together, if there is more than one) on to the electronic exchange.
1. A method including:
initiating sending by a computing device a first order message in a first thread of a trading application:
determining by the computing device that a second order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the second order message is in a second thread of the trading application, wherein the second thread is different than the first thread;
determining by the computing device that a third order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the third order message is in a third thread of the trading application, wherein the third thread is different than the first thread;
moving by the computing device the second order message into a data structure in a queuing thread of the trading application in response to determining the second order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the second thread does not wait to process other instructions of the trading application until the next available time to send the second order message after moving the second order message, wherein the queuing thread is different than the first thread, the second thread, and the third thread;
moving by the computing device the third order message into the data structure in the queuing thread in response to determining the third order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the third thread does not wait to process other instructions of the trading application until the next available time to send the third order message after moving the third order message; and
initiating sending by the computing device the second order message and the third order message in the queuing thread after the sending of the first order message is complete.
2. The method of claim 1 , further including generating by the computing device the first order message in the first thread.
3. The method of claim 1 , further including initiating generating by the computing device at least one of the second order message and the third order message prior to initiating sending the first order message.
4. The method of claim 1 , further including initiating generating by the computing device at least one of the second order message and the third order message after initiating sending the first order message.
5. The method of claim 1 , further including receiving by the computing device at least one of the first order message, the second order message, and the third order message from a client device.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second thread and the third thread are different threads.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second thread and the third thread are the same thread.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data structure in the queuing thread is a queue.
9. The method of claim 1 , further including generating by the computing device a batch message including the second order message and the third order message in the queuing thread, wherein initiating sending the second order message and the third order message includes initiating sending the batch message.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second order message and the third order message are sent together.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the computing device includes one of the group consisting of: (1) a client device, (2) a server-side device, and (3) a gateway.
12. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions executable by a processor, including instructions executable to:
initiate sending a first order message in a first thread of a trading application; determine that a second order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the second order message is in a second thread of the trading application, wherein the second thread is different than the first thread;
determine that a third order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the third order message is in a third thread of the trading application, wherein the third thread is different than the first thread;
move the second order message into a data structure in a queuing thread of the trading application in response to determining the second order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the second thread does not wait to process other instructions of the trading application until the next available time to send the second order message after moving the second order message, wherein the queuing thread is different than the first thread, the second thread, and the third thread;
move the third order message into the data structure in the queuing thread in response to determining the third order message is ready to be sent while the first order message is being sent, wherein the third thread does not wait to process other instructions of the trading application until the next available time to send the third order message after moving the third order message; and
initiate sending the second order message and the third order message in the queuing thread after the sending of the first order message is complete.
13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , further including instructions executable to generate the first order message in the first thread.
14. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , further including instructions executable to initiate generating at least one of the second order message and the third order message prior to initiating sending the first order message.
15. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , further including instructions executable to initiate generating at least one of the second order message and the third order message after initiating sending the first order message.
16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , further including instructions executable to receive at least one of the first order message, the second order message, and the third order message from a client device.
17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the second thread and the third thread are different threads.
18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the second thread and the third thread are the same thread.
19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the data structure in the queuing thread is a queue.
20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , further including instructions executable to generate a batch message including the second order message and the third order message in the queuing thread, wherein initiating sending the second order message and the third order message includes initiating sending the batch message.
21. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the second order message and the third order message are sent together.
22. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the processor is included in one of the group consisting of: (1) a client device, (2) a server-side device, and (3) a gateway.
