Real-time trade analytics, algorithms, risk controls and interactive charts and position monitoring help traders pursue alpha with increased speed, control, and efficiency

Chicago, IL, USA, April 7, 2014  — In the buy side’s ongoing quest for alpha, reducing latency in connectivity and execution have become essential parts of the process. Now traders seeking an edge in the markets are focusing on reducing decision latency. This is the pre-trade time it takes to recognize an alpha opportunity or a risk signal and execute or amend an order.

Those attending this year’s TradeTech Europe Conference can get a first-hand look at integrated decision-support tools from trading technology provider InfoReach (www.inforeachinc.com) that enable traders to execute investment decisions with increased speed, control and efficiency. These include:

  • InfoReach “Second Opinion” real-time Transaction Cost Analysis (TCA). This independent service integrates pre-trade and historical transaction cost analysis with real-time analytics to predict market impact and opportunity costs. Traders quickly can choose the optimal strategy and adjust execution strategies based on current market conditions. And post-trade analytics give users the actionable results they need to improve execution quality and reduce transaction costs.
  • Multi-asset, broker-neutral algorithms. InfoReach trading platforms come with a suite of pre-built execution strategies. Traders also can access more than 500 execution algorithms from more than 40 global brokers and other third-party providers for multiple asset classes.
  • Automated risk controls. Trading firms can automatically apply a hierarchy of safeguards to all their electronic trading and view consolidated global risk exposure–allowing them to quickly monitor and control risk in real time. Pre-defined risk checks trigger alerts, allowing users to adjust trades or block the release of non-compliant orders.
  • Real-time, interactive charts and position monitoring. InfoReach trading platforms feature powerful visualization tools that allow traders to view and act on complex data in the shortest time possible. Interactive charts, graphs and heat maps enable one-click trading for faster execution. Real-time position monitoring provides a consolidated view of trading across global markets for multiple asset classes.
