Supported Destinations - Anthid

Overview

Exchange destinations determine where an order is routed for execution. order_venue names where a create intent is sent. Use the Anthid value in your intent request; Anthid translates it to the broker-specific destination. SMART delegates venue selection to the broker. Lightspeed Connect also supports the direct routes listed below.

Notes

Direct routing sends an order to a specific exchange destination.
Smart routing delegates venue selection to the broker.
Destination availability can also depend on the instrument, account, environment, and market session.
A broker may reject a route after Anthid accepts the intent. Monitor the intent and order event lifecycle.
