History[edit]
The firm was founded in 2013 by Walter Fitzgerald and Mohammad Yusuf Jan to build specialized systems for high-touch and low-touch trading environments.[3] The company established its headquarters in New York and designed a platform architecture to support continuous global order flow.[4]

On September 30, 2026, Trading Technologies acquired the firm.
