"I just want to be able to list securities and set the number of shares available for users to trade"
Each server configured as sellside can list securities and offer a specific volume to the servers connected as buy side.
"Also, what is the maximum amount of users this system can handle?"
One server in this network is representing one financial institution.
You can set up several traders for a financial institution.
So the question is how many servers the peer-to-peer network can handle?
The number of participants is theoretically unlimited.
I'm a real noob when it comes to this stuff.
Can this software be used for a private exchange?
I don't need it to be linked to a existing exchange
I just want to be able to list securities and set the number of shares available for users to trade

"I don't need it to be linked to a existing exchange"
