Technical Approach

Architecture - We have used microservices-based architecture to decouple different services (e.g., user authentication, trading engine, market data, order management, etc.). Each service can be independently developed, deployed, and scaled. 
Hosting - Cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure for scalable hosting, with a focus on using services like Kubernetes for containerized application deployment. 
Backend - languages C++/Java for real-time execution Integration of real-time market data via APIs using WebSockets for streaming updates. Implementing order routing for smart execution and support for short selling features.
Front End - Integrating real-time market data via APIs using WebSockets for streaming updates. Implementing order routing for smart execution and support for short selling features.
