Bitget has opened a separate liquidity service for quantitative funds, proprietary trading firms and brokers, extending the contracts-for-difference business it launched in January.

Bitget Liquidity Launch

The exchange said Tuesday that the new setup routes 100% of client orders straight through to outside liquidity pools, with no dealing desk stepping in between. Orders reach the provider directly. Bitget aggregates prices from Tier-1 banks and non-bank market makers, and it offers clients several levels of market depth.

Trading servers sit in the LD4 and TY3 data centres in London and Tokyo, linked by dedicated networks and direct fibre that Bitget says allow order matching in under a millisecond. The service also supports FIX API connections, letting quantitative desks link their own systems and aggregators.

Bitget CEO On Execution

Chief executive Gracy Chen said professional traders need consistent execution, deep liquidity and reliable connectivity to run their strategies at scale.

High-frequency and arbitrage models stress an order book differently than retail flow does, and thin depth at the top can widen slippage on large trades. Client money sits in segregated custody accounts, Bitget said.

Bitget opened the CFD business to the public on Jan. 5, listing forex, gold and US stock contracts on the MetaTrader 5 platform. Copy trading for those markets followed on Apr. 14.
