Entering the “Era of Speed”: Demanding New Infrastructure and Data Standards

At the event, Mr. Nguyễn Hoàng Giang, Chairman of DNSE’s Board of Directors, stated that the era of day trading is defined by three key factors: “Speed – Seamless – Sync” – order processing speed, seamless transactions, and real-time market data synchronization. Reducing information latency is crucial for securities companies’ systems, enabling investors to fully benefit from T+0 and minimize risks in high-speed trading.

“That’s why DNSE has focused on investing in technology systems over the past five years to prepare the technical foundation for the upcoming market. Currently, DNSE’s transaction processing speed is 3.9 milliseconds,” said Mr. Giang.

Infrastructure – Data – Open API: The Trio Unlocking High-Speed Trading

Discussing technology infrastructure preparedness, Ms. Li Wen Wong, Senior Director of IBM LinuxONE and Linux on IBM Z, IBM Technology Asia Pacific, highlighted that in the era of high-speed trading, a robust and secure server system is critical to reducing latency and enhancing transaction efficiency. DNSE is a pioneer in Vietnam, utilizing IBM’s solutions to ensure speed, availability, security, cost reduction, and a technology system aligned with international standards.

Focusing on optimizing user experience in the new era, Mr. Nguyễn Đức Bình, Director of Technology at DNSE Securities, introduced DNSE’s new Open API solution at the event. DNSE has pioneered API connections with partners like Zalopay, FiinTrade, and Trading View, offering a “one-touch, multi-platform” trading experience.

With DNSE’s new API product, active traders can create their own strategies using real-time market data with just 5–10 lines of code and integrate AI to optimize trading performance.

The API is specifically designed to maximize DNSE’s speed advantage, ensuring orders are updated to the exchange fastest, with optimal security and compatibility with DNSE’s transaction-based lending management system.

DNSE also plans to launch a Co-location Host service, directly connecting high-frequency traders to its system, reducing transaction times to under 50 milliseconds per trade. This prepares for a context of full-day trading, rapid capital rotation, and increased intraday risk management needs.

Discussing the power of data and quantitative trading trends in the new context, Mr. Võ Duy Anh, Founder & CEO of AlgoTrade, noted:

“When the market operates at millisecond speeds, investors cannot process all information manually to make consistent decisions. Data, models, and algorithms will become increasingly central.”

Mr. Duy Anh predicted that 2026–2030 will be the ideal period for quantitative trading to flourish in Vietnam, as co-location services and APIs expand.

During the discussion, panelists agreed that trends like super apps, automated data-driven trading, and quantitative trading will continue to grow. Many investors also asked about opportunities, risks, and how newcomers and active traders can adapt to new trading solutions.

Notably, DNSE hosted its first-ever Esport Derivatives Trading competition on stage, featuring top performers from the “Lướt sóng phái sinh” contest held over the past two years. This brought a vibrant atmosphere and a firsthand look at high-speed trading supported by advanced technology.

The investor with the nickname “Heo” won with a perfect 100% success rate across 8 trades, earning a total profit of 12.87 points and a 100 million VND prize.

With participation from esteemed speakers and hands-on technology experiences, DNSE Future Tech Summit provided investors with comprehensive insights to prepare for the era of high-speed trading, where the investor experience is redefined by technology, data, and connectivity.
