Systems for transmitting a data stream and methods for transmitting a data stream

A system, comprising:

• reconfigurable circuitry operatively connected to a data stream source and a data stream destination and configured to:
• receive a data stream comprising a plurality of data stream units, wherein a data stream unit of the plurality of data stream units comprises an order for causing a response action by a destination device;
• transmit the data stream towards the destination device;
• and
• transmit the data stream unit of the plurality of data stream units to a controller;
• the controller operatively connected to the reconfigurable circuitry and configured to:
• analyze the data stream unit to obtain trading risk threshold information;
• make a determination, by the controller and using the trading risk threshold information, that a threshold will be breached as a result of the order in the data stream unit;
• and
• based on the determination:
• switch from transmitting the data stream towards the destination device to transmitting an alternate data stream towards the destination device, wherein the alternate data stream comprises an alternate data stream unit comprising an updated order configured to cause a different response action by the destination device and the updated order has a lower trading risk than a trading risk associated with the data stream;
• wherein the controller processes the alternate data stream and the data stream in parallel, and
• a data generator operatively connected to the controller and the reconfigurable circuitry and configured to:
• generate the alternate data stream;
• and
• transmit the alternate data stream to the reconfigurable circuitry.
