For institutional trading firms, precision isn’t optional — it’s the foundation of every strategy. Managing complex portfolios means every tick matters. A single data gap or vendor interpretation can ripple into millions in lost opportunities.
USA Securities faced this challenge head‑on. They needed a data solution that didn’t just deliver speed, but also transparency.
“In today’s marketplace, there is no room for error, data omission, latency or excuses when it comes to market data. After we had been a customer of Hyperfeed for five years and S&P Comstock for two, I had come to the realization that to get market data “right”, I was going to have to do it myself. Our troubles with Hyperfeed and Comstock were nothing short of endless. Technology shortcomings, database misconfigurations, data losses and endless excuses. Six months into a project to build our own ticker processing plant for SIAC and OPRA feeds I somewhat accidentally ran into Nanex and NxCore. It took nothing more than a one week evaluation of NxCore for us to make the decision to terminate the new ticker plant development efforts and to make a full commitment to NxCore. This is a decision that could not have turned out better. Our trading precision has grown significantly, profits have grown and NxCore is the foundation of our data requirements. Every representation made of NxCore is flawlessly accurate. Without a doubt, Eric Hunsader is a visionary in the market data software field and has created the most useful, reliable and completely well thought out ticker plant in the industry. You can consider the rest, but choose only the best – NxCore. “
