Does anyone have any data on latency for trading equities over LEAN?
I'm engaged in a discussion about optimum latency targets for HFT strategies and MFT strategies. If a benchmark for HFT is achieved, then there's no problem at the MFT level. We've benchmarked 200ms latency as unacceptable. Are there any High Frequency traders out there that would like to share/brag about ther latency? I'm trying to get some sample data to use as benchmarks for internal improvement.

Looks like noone ever responded to you. I have been looking into this lately. thanks for getting the research and conversation started. I think that latency wouldn't be a variable that we can adjust since we are all executing trades from QC. we arebeholden to whatever the latency is for their servers. Perhaps check your live trading logs , backtest logs, or look at the server you are renting . I"m using the low tier.Â
