This application connects to your Redis database and start filling it with randomised orders. Idea is to have multiple applications like this, simulating cross-trading of low latency algo traders.
You can start application locally, from Lambda, from Docker container. You have to set environmental variable IMTCONNECT to one of three options: LOCALHOST SOCKET INTERNET
In most cases, it would be LOCALHOST
or INTERNET
, only in case you run
application directly on the Redis machine, you can connect directly to
unix socket (/tmp/redis.sock
by default).
Amount of randomly generated orders depends on variable cycles
.
Result is basically a no-latency trading, you cannot get much faster, than this...
