Partners
NautilusTrader partners with established technology and data providers, along with major trading venues, creating an ecosystem built for performance, security, and compliance.
Partners are chosen based on offerings that extend the platform's core capabilities. Each integration must meet strict technical and infrastructure requirements so the platform maintains the real-time performance and reliability the community expects.
Venue partners
Venue partners are exchanges and trading venues that combine deep liquidity, low-latency infrastructure, and broad product ranges. Each integration is selected to meet the execution quality and operational standards that serious systematic traders, market makers, and proprietary desks expect from production-grade infrastructure.
NautilusTrader is supported by partnership agreements with each partner venue, with rebates received from attributed order flow. Users pay standard venue fees – these arrangements do not increase trading costs.
