Exchange

public class SimulatedExchange extends BaseExchange
A simple, in-memory implementation which mocks out the main elements of the XChange generic API in a consistent way. The effect is to create a virtual "exchange" that you can connect to from multiple threads and simulate a real exchange. Intended for integration testing of higher order components.

This is not remotely suitable for use as a real-world exchange. The concurrency is extremely coarse-grained and most data transforms involve data mutation with no . If any errors occur midway through a trade, they are likely to leave the system in an inconsistent state. And nothing gets saved to a database anyway.

If you start using this for running a real exchange, you will suffer a stolen.
