Starting from the third quarter of 2025, ICE plans to offer the API Binary Binary Order as an option for customers to connect to the Ice Parivatives trading platform and to submit orders and orders of orders for various products in different exchanges.
This API uses simple binary coding (SBE), which has optimized coding and decoding for low latent status and minimized zone range requirements.
This will serve as an alternative to the existing order routing API.
Basic Benefits from API Binary Orner Ice Binary
- The goal of designing the ICE for the BGW compared to FIX is to reduce the jitter/latent situation and provide better transparency to allow customers to better simulate markets for new strategic marketing or refinement for existing strategies.
- Improve the use of cargo/resource balancing on all our servers and remove the dependence on a third -party cargo balance to register API.
Ice will continue to support the order routing API for the foreseeable future, but the binary gate will become the strategic and preferred course for a lower and more stable latent to the engine. Future investments in performance and infrastructure will focus on the binary platform.
Going forward, customers who prioritize the performance of the lowest delay for the Ice derivative trading platform will be encouraged to be integrated into the binary gate. GO-LIVE dates for the binary gate are on October 31, 2025, for all products supported by Silo Basildon and on 20 February 2026, for all products supported by Chicago Silo (all Ice Futures US products supported in Chicago’s silo).
