The engine
An order book in integer ticks with its own memory allocator, a wait-free ring buffer from feed to strategy, streaming statistics in constant time and an options pricer — written in C++ and bound to Python.
Deon Berisha · Founder
It was always my dream to work for myself — in finance.
2009Born in Vaduz
I was born in Vaduz in 2009, with family roots in Pristina. For as long as I can remember, finance was where I wanted to build something of my own.
10First programs
At ten I wrote my first programs — C, then C++. Later came Python, and the software that runs behind the markets.
11First trades
At eleven I placed my first trades. I have traded my own account ever since.
6Years of trading
Six years of trading taught me two things. The best tools in finance are built for institutions — and priced for them. And everything else is scattered across a dozen windows.
IdeaLeaner · more affordable
So the idea took shape: something like Bloomberg — everything in one place — but leaner, faster to work with, and priced for people who trade for themselves.
17SwiftTrade
Now I am seventeen, in the DigiBiz class at HAK Feldkirch — and the idea has a name. SwiftTrade: the software I always wanted, built by me.
NextLaunch · capital for others
Next comes the launch. And one day I also want to trade for others — once SwiftTrade holds the licence that requires.
“I want to build something that can eventually stand alongside the world's most sophisticated financial technology.”
Deon Berisha · Founder, SwiftTrade
