                         NYFIX PROVIDES UPDATED GUIDANCE

STAMFORD, CT, MARCH 4, 2005: NYFIX, INC. (NASDAQ:  NYFX), A LEADER IN technology
solutions for the financial  marketplace,  announced that it expects revenue for
the fourth quarter of 2004 to be  approximately  $20.4  million,  an increase of
almost 5% over the prior  quarter and within the range of  previously  announced
revenue guidance of $19.5 million to $21.0 million. The fourth quarter net loss,
however,  is  expected  to be in the range of $0.10 to $0.12 per  common  share,
which is higher  than the  previously  announced  guidance of $0.03 to $0.05 net
loss per common share.  This negative  variance is  attributable  to higher than
forecasted interest and bad debt expense,  Sarbanes-Oxley  implementation  costs
and other general and administrative expenses.

As a result  of the  previously  announced  buy-side  initiatives,  the  Company
experienced significant growth in global network and transaction revenue. In the
two years since the Company  launched its buy-side  initiatives,  global network
and  transaction  revenue  combined  have  grown  to an  annualized  rate of $35
million.  Transaction  revenue  increased  25% from  $4.1  million  in the third
quarter of 2004 to more than $5.1 million in the fourth quarter with  increasing
gross profit  margins.  First  quarter 2005  transaction  revenue is on pace for
further  growth.  The Company  expects to launch a new execution  service in May
2005, which it believes will provide additional transaction revenue growth.

For the first quarter of 2005, the Company expects revenue to be in the range of
$21.0 million to $23.0 million.  However,  the Company expects to report a first
quarter net loss in the range of $0.03 to $0.09 per common share. The Company is
employing a high level of external  legal and other  professional  services at a
cost of  approximately $2 million in the first quarter of 2005 ($0.06 per common
share) to address the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  inquiries,  achieve
compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and accomplish business streamlining.

"We are in the midst of implementing a vision change that deals with the balance
and relationship between our sell and buy-side business growth opportunities and
our central  corporate  costs.  Our primary goals  continue to be to restore the
Company to  profitability,  capture growth  opportunities  and build a franchise
with sustained  profitability," said Peter Kilbinger Hansen,  Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer.
