Drovix.
Concrete corridor with converging light lines expressing ultra-low latency
Solutions for Proprietary Trading Firms

Execution built forthe speed of your edge.

Drovix gives proprietary trading firms low-latency, low-reject access to aggregated multi-asset liquidity — co-located infrastructure, cross-margined capital efficiency and fill-level execution analytics under a single counterparty relationship.

Built for firms that measure execution in microseconds.

Proprietary trading firms come to Drovix for venue quality: deep aggregated books, low rejects, co-located paths and capital efficiency across asset classes. Execution quality is measured at fill level and reported back to your desk. All counterparties are subject to onboarding, KYB, suitability, credit and jurisdictional review.

/ 01

Latency-first infrastructure

Equinix co-located matching across NY3, LD4, SG1 and TY3 with a C++/Aeron core targeting <1ms internal execution — engineered for strategies where the microsecond budget matters.

Capability
/ 02

High fill rates, fewer rejects

Smart order routing targets the deepest available book per ticket and is engineered to minimise last-look rejections — so more of your edge survives execution.

Capability
/ 03

Cross-margined capital efficiency

One collateral pool across FX, indices, commodities, metals and digital assets. Cross-margining keeps capital working in the book instead of fragmented across venues.

Capability
/ 04

Bridge-agnostic FIX 4.4

Standard FIX 4.4, REST and WebSocket connectivity integrates directly with proprietary stacks, EMS/OMS and any institutional bridge or aggregator — no vendor lock-in.

Capability
/ 05

Fill-level TCA

Transaction cost analysis at fill level — slippage, reject and routing statistics reported through the portal so your quant desk can measure execution quality directly.

Capability
/ 06

Co-location & proximity hosting

Proximity and co-location options at our Equinix points of presence for firms running latency-sensitive strategies against the Drovix pricing engine.

Infrastructure as edge

Venue-grade speed, counterparty-grade control.

For your engineers

The spec sheet, not the sales deck.

What your connectivity and execution teams will actually ask about — points of presence, session architecture and the wire protocol. Full specifications and conformance scripts are provided during certification.

Latency targets describe internal matching and routing within the Drovix infrastructure. Client round-trip latency is network-dependent by location and venue. Operational parameters are not guarantees of pricing, fill rates or trading outcomes.

How it works

One venue relationship, full execution control.

Drovix acts as a single principal counterparty for your firm's flow. Strategies connect over FIX 4.4 or WebSocket, price against aggregated tier-1 and non-bank liquidity, and execution is internalised or routed to third-party liquidity providers to maintain best execution under prevailing market conditions.

  • Connect over standard FIX 4.4, REST or WebSocket — direct to your stack.
  • Co-location and proximity hosting available at Equinix points of presence.
  • Cross-margined account across FX, indices, commodities, metals and digital assets.
  • Pre-trade limits and real-time exposure visible to your risk desk.
  • Fill-level TCA, reject and routing statistics through the portal.

Put your strategies on institutional rails.

Eligible proprietary trading firms can begin the counterparty review process via the portal, or speak with the desk about connectivity and co-location.

Risk notice. Engaging in leveraged products such as Forex and CFDs involves a high level of risk. The Drovix offering is directed at Eligible Counterparties and Professional Clients and is not intended for retail clients. Leverage can amplify both profits and losses; a counterparty may lose more than its initial margin. Ensure that the firm understands how these products work and can bear the risk of capital loss.

Scope. Drovix is not a public exchange, multilateral trading facility (MTF), organised trading facility (OTF) or ECN. Drovix acts as a principal counterparty in bilateral OTC transactions with approved institutional counterparties, and may internalise or route flow to third-party liquidity providers to maintain best execution under prevailing market conditions.

No retail. Drovix does not provide liquidity, execution or any related services to retail clients. Services are offered only to approved professional clients, eligible counterparties and institutional clients, and not in jurisdictions where Drovix is not authorised or permitted to provide them.
