Measurement Methodology

Our latency statistics represent real performance numbers validated by Corvil. NASDAQ OMX uses a neutral third-party service to provide our customers with real-time latency insight and analysis down to the individual transaction level to offer innovative and transparent trading solutions.

Latency statistics are gathered in the production environment by injecting an order and a subsequent cancel every half second during production hours.
