dxFeed Launches Overnight Data Feed to Capitalize on Expanding U.S. Equity Hours
Event summary
- dxFeed launched an Aggregated Overnight Feed for U.S. equities, consolidating top-of-book data across multiple venues.
- The feed aggregates Level 1 data (quotes, trades, time & sales) from Bruce ATS, Blue Ocean ATS, and Moon ATS.
- Overnight trading volume now represents approximately 9% of total daily U.S. equity activity.
- dxFeed’s solution utilizes its Feed Consolidator Service (FCS) to normalize and aggregate data.
- The new feed aims to provide a continuous 24/7 data stream, merging overnight and regular trading sessions.
The big picture
The launch underscores the increasing importance of extended-hours trading in U.S. equities, moving beyond a niche activity to a core component of market structure. Fragmented overnight liquidity and inconsistent data formats have historically hampered participation, creating a significant opportunity for dxFeed to establish itself as a key infrastructure provider. This move positions dxFeed to capitalize on the growing demand for 24/7 market visibility and potentially attract clients seeking to exploit arbitrage opportunities during off-hours.
What we're watching

- The speed at which institutional traders and quantitative firms adopt the aggregated overnight feed will determine its long-term success and dxFeed’s revenue growth.
- Venue Expansion
- dxFeed’s ability to onboard additional overnight trading venues will be crucial for expanding the feed’s coverage and attracting a wider client base.
- Competitive Response
- Other market data providers will likely respond to dxFeed’s offering, potentially leading to price competition or alternative solutions that could erode market share.
