Provider

Introduction

XCore’s Provider component facilitates connections with liquidity providers to receive price feeds and execute trades. With a broad range of integrated connections, XCore makes it convenient for users to connect directly with tier one liquidity providers, exchanges, data vendors, and other XCores.

Users can configure specific settings for each provider on a per-symbol basis using the Provider settings. This includes mapping XCore symbols with provider specifications, adding pre-aggregation markups, and adjusting the minimum trade size for each provider. Provider scaling is a particularly useful feature that enables users to manipulate prices and volumes to ensure trade volumes align with the liquidity provider’s contract.
