Options Adds Direct Japan Alternative Market Access via AtlasFabric

The link gives traders a managed low-latency route into a new Japanese venue for alternative equity liquidity.

Overview

  • Options Technology said it now offers managed connectivity to the Japan Alternative Market through its AtlasFabric network and did not share latency figures or client numbers.
  • Clients can pull JAX market data and send orders straight into their trading, risk, and analytics systems over a single low-latency connection.
  • Options said it has supported JAX from launch as a founding partner handling both trading connectivity and market data feeds.
  • JAX operates as a Proprietary Trading System in Japan, providing an additional venue for equity liquidity and price discovery alongside the main exchanges.
  • The move places Options early in the race to serve the venue, following TNS’s disclosure in January of its own direct JAX connection, and it aligns with Options’ APAC push that includes a pending Crossvale acquisition and a claimed commercial quantum capability in New York.
