This tool simplifies the process of FIX Protocol certification. Eliminates manual (telephone) testing. Sell side can quickly publish precise FIX test scenarios and instruct its buy side partners to certify against a simulated environment. Built-in support for algorithmic trades and custom FIX tags. Contact us today for a free consultation on how you can simplify your FIX testing requirements.

Our FIX simulator integrates with popular FIX engines and allows trading institutions to test their system for compatibility with their trading partner’s systems. The screenshot below shows the web application that was developed to configure and manage the rules of the simulation engine.

Note that FIX Protocol is the standard protocol that allows electronic connectivity between trading institutions like stock exchanges, execution brokers, investment management firms, and banks. Trading institutions have to test their trading software with their trading partners to verify system compatibility. This process of testing is complex and time consuming. Our team has years of experience developing software for the financial industry.
