FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LMEX Markets launches 24/7 multi-asset perpetuals exchange on LD4

[Location] — [Launch date]

LMEX Markets, the multi-asset perpetuals exchange covering cryptocurrencies, forex, US equities, commodities and global indices, today launched on bare-metal infrastructure at LD4, the Equinix-hosted Slough data centre that serves as the canonical low-latency venue for European institutional trading.

The exchange is the first retail-accessible venue to offer perpetual contracts across all five major asset classes on a single cross-margin wallet, settled in USDT, with continuous 24/7 trading and no overnight or weekend gaps. Maximum leverage is 125× on major cryptocurrency perpetuals and up to 500× on forex pairs.

What launches at LD4:

  • A FIX 4.4 gateway over TCP for institutional buy-side, prop firms and brokers, alongside the existing REST and WebSocket APIs.
  • A six-tier VIP fee ladder with automatic tier assignment from 30-day trading volume, ranging from 0.01% maker / 0.06% taker at the General tier down to 0% maker / 0.04% taker at VIP 5.
  • ECN-style forex commission at $5 per side per standard lot (General tier), dropping to $1.50 at VIP 5 — competitive with established ECN forex brokers.
  • Immutable tick-data audit, enabling liquidation enquiries to be resolved with the exact engine-consumed tick stream.

What makes the venue different:

Most exchanges optimise for one asset class. Cryptocurrency venues do not list forex or equities; ECN forex brokers do not list cryptocurrency; multi-asset brokers like Interactive Brokers price each asset class on a different fee model. LMEX Markets is the only venue applying a single fee schedule, a single margin pool and a single API surface across all five asset classes — designed for the cross-asset trader who today juggles three or four separate accounts.

An insurance fund is maintained as the public backstop against socialised loss, with balance proof to publish alongside launch; the WebSocket broadcast surface exposes 18 typed event variants; the REST API spans 56 endpoints. A full OpenAPI 3.1 specification is available at lmexmarkets.com/docs.

Most traders do not trade just one asset class — they trade three or four, and they live with the friction of three or four logins. LMEX Markets puts the whole portfolio on one wallet with one margin pool. That consolidation, plus the 24/7 access, is what we built for.

Running the matching engine on bare metal at LD4 puts us inside the same low-latency footprint as the institutional venues our buy-side clients already use. The FIX gateway is what makes that real for them.
