Hoptroff’s precision timing is essential to Boronia Capital’s European expansion

With a plan to expand their footprint in Europe, Futures trader Boronia Capital needed a microsecond time service that was easy to implement and minimised operational disruption.

About

Problem

Boronia Capital were looking to further expand their footprint in Europe to be closer to major exchanges for algorithmic trading, where precision time to the microsecond level is essential.

They sought a rapid and straightforward time service designed to minimise operational disruptions and streamline their processes.
