Patent attributes
The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for matching orders for a financial product. A first order for a financial product is received. The first order includes a preference for a first order book. An order processer selects a first hardware match processor based on the preference. A first hardware match processor attempts to match the first order with a previously received order in the first order book. A second order for the financial product is received. The second order includes a preference for a second order book. The order processor selects a second hardware match processor based on the preference. A second hardware match processor attempts to match the second order with a previously received order in the second order book. The first and second hardware match processors use different matching algorithms.
