Does some entity > like the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission in the United > States) mandate some sort of timestamp for when the trading request > "arrives at the trading system" and do they define that "arriving at > the trading system" means? The issue is the ordering of processing the requests. So if request A arrived on interface 1 before request B arrived on interface 2, the trade described in A should be performed before the one in B. This is not "arcance" as you seem to suppose it might be, but rather pretty clear fair handling or requests sent between trading desks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
