Velocimetrics Unveils Algorithmic Testing Module, mdPlay

According to Velocimetrics’ CEO Steve Colwill in a recent statement on the launch of mdPlay: “These days, automated trading decisions are made in small fractions of a second, but software-only capture replay solutions cannot replicate the true timing subtleties of fast moving markets. Our mdPlay solution can be up and running within a matter of hours, enabling replay of a precise replica of the market conditions experienced during any given trading period.”
“Because the data is replayed with +/-20 nanosecond precision, testing teams can dramatically increase the accuracy and effectiveness of functional and load testing practices. Therefore, when algorithms and their supporting components are released into production our customers can have a higher degree of confidence in their behaviour, resulting in fewer production problems and more profitable trading,” he added.
