# go-trader

A financial exchange written in Go including complete order book, fix protocol, and market data distribution.

Check out [cpp_orderbook](https://github.com/robaho/cpp_orderbook) for a basic C++ version.

## Features

- client to server communication using:
- FIX (using quickfixgo)
- gRPC
- UDP multicast for market data distribution.
- TCP replay of dropped market data packets.
- Uses the high-performance fixed point library [fixed](https://github.com/robaho/fixed) which I also developed.
- Includes multiple clients:
- command line
- server-side web using Go templates
- SPA web using Lit
- A sample "market maker" to mass quote the market.
- A sample "playback" to simulate markets from recorded market data.
- Supported order types:
- limit
- market
- [REST api](https://github.com/robaho/go-trader/blob/2b92b5652eb5c6a93b83262f45ba1f237fb180b0/internal/exchange/webserver.go#L41-L54)

The exchange is designed to allow for easy back-testing of trading strategies. It supports limit and market orders.

There is a very simple sample "algo". The program structure is applicable to many strategies that use an entry and exit price.
This can be run in conjunction with the 'marketmaker' sample to test the "algo". Hint: it has a 50/50 chance of being successful EXCEPT the
market maker bid/ask spread must be accounted for - which makes it far less than a 50/50 chance of being profitable...

There are two different web interfaces available:
- the default interface at `/` uses Go templates and server side rendering
- the alternative UI at `/lit` is written in Typescript using [Lit](https://lit.dev) and the Rest api

Use `npm run build` in the `web_lit` directory to build the Lit assets.

It was primarily developed to further my knowledge of Go and test its suitability for high-performance financial applications.

# install

`go get github.com/robaho/go-trader`

# build

```
cd go-trader
mkdir bin
go build -o bin ./cmd/...
```

# run


cd go-trader

Run each in a different terminal session.
Ensure the correct interface is set in configs/got_settings for the client.

# performance

Configuration:

- client machine is a Mac Mini M1, running OSX Sonoma
- server machine is a 4.0 ghz i7 iMac (4 core, 8 thread), running OSX Monterey
- using 1 gbit ethernet connection
- a quote is a double-sided (bid & ask)
- timings are measured from the quote message generation on the client, to the reception of the multicast market data on the client
- 90k+ quote per second over the network using FIX with latency < 1ms
- 400k+ quote per second over the network using gRPC with latency < 600 usec
