A matching engine is a very important part of the operation of a cryptocurrency exchange as it stores all the orders placed by users.
It reconciles bid and ask prices and allows holders to buy or sell assets at the market price.
A multilateral trading facility (MTF) facilitates the exchange of financial instruments between several parties.
A matching engine continually scans all orders on a given instrument and determines whether there is a potential match.
Matching orders is the process that a securities exchange uses to pair one or more buy orders to one or more sell orders to make trades.
The task of pairing the orders is computerised via a matching engine which prioritises orders for matching.
Spot matching allows participants to access firm pricing and obtain high certainty of execution.
The process is key to the functioning of the FX market whereby brokers need to rely heavily on matching data using automated software.
A centralised exchange oversees the operations of traders and provides an automated system ensuring trading orders are matched.
A powerful matching engine helps attract reliable market makers and create a strong liquidity pool on your exchange.
Electronic money institutions dealing in bank deposits, electronic fund transfer, payment processors and cryptocurrency rely on an automated matching engine to facilitate electronic transactions.
