About CryptoStruct
CryptoStruct is a Hamburg-based start-up, founded in late 2019, but with many years of experience in algorithmic stock exchange trading. It develops software for automated trading of cryptocurrencies and derivatives. Its target groups are professional trading companies, market makers, banks, and investment funds from all over the world.
A significant challenge in this area is the variety of protocols, APIs, and closed systems. CryptoStruct converts them to a normalised format in real-time and provides a unified interface. The market data is offered at various endpoints all over the world to allow the lowest possible latency.
With its product, the user can develop, test, and run their automated trading strategies within a short time. It offers its customers a fully comprehensive solution for trading, analysis, controlling, documentation, and compliance. The user can fully concentrate on the development and monitoring of their trading strategies.
Its system is based on cloud services and can be scaled quickly and cost-effectively. This enables it to react promptly to market changes.
“RF technology has been with us for quite some time now. There are the prop and algo-trading firms that are on the bleeding edge of these technologies to get the edge to win but adoption by the more mainstream financial and capital markets communities is usually a lot slower.”
