A new futures trading platform has been launched, aimed at US brokers seeking to expand their offerings in both futures and options on futures trading. This innovative platform can be deployed immediately with a ready-to-use setup or customized to fit specific business needs.
The introduction of this platform comes at a time when there is an increased demand for futures products, particularly within the US market, as interest in derivatives trading continues to rise. The platform leverages advanced technology, developed by a strong team of 800 professionals, to accommodate both existing and prospective clients.
The new futures trading platform offers brokers access to major futures markets, including the CME and ICE. It also partners with futures commission merchants to enhance service delivery. Key features include a DOM ladder trading interface that simplifies order placement with one-click functionality, aiming to match user expectations for specialized futures trading systems.
Additionally, the platform includes a real-time order management system that automates the calculation of SPAN margin requirements and ensures all placed orders meet necessary margin criteria before execution. This system also supports post-trade monitoring to manage market moves effectively, enabling brokers to implement intraday margin discounts and liquidation practices according to their risk management frameworks. Full integration with execution venues is a critical aspect, with existing connections to market leaders like CQG and StoneX.
From a trader’s perspective, the platform features built-in integrations through a dedicated market data service. This includes real-time Level 1 and Level 2 quotes from various exchanges and the capability to connect with other US futures exchanges. Additional tools available for traders are automatic alerts, a heatmap for monitoring market trends, and pre-built option strategies. The platform is adaptable, offered in a white-labeled format accessible through web browsers and mobile applications on both iOS and Android.
Market conditions, particularly in the US, have driven the necessity for such a platform. The development team has worked diligently to align the platform’s capabilities with market demands, ensuring clients have the appropriate tools to cater to their customers’ needs.
The new offering also includes dedicated customer support through an assigned account manager, emphasizing ongoing client service and assistance. Future enhancements to the platform promise unlimited scalability and the potential to incorporate more asset classes, positioning brokers for growth and adaptation in a changing market landscape.
