Knight Capital Group Inc. (NYSE:KCG)  has agreed to sell itself to Getco, as we reported earlier this evening. For the past several weeks, there had been a large bidding war betwen Vurtu and Getco over who would win control of the company.

Getco is the likely winner of the bidding war for Knight Capital, according to FOX Business Network ( FBN ) Senior Correspondent Charlie Gasparino.” Getco increased its bid to “about $2 billion dollars,” leading Knight’s Board of Directors to reject Virtu Holdings’ bid.
