FX Order Management

The Order Management module of TraderTools' Liquidity Management Platform features:

API support

TraderTools' API support allow an institution's external or customer-facing systems to send add/edit/delete requests into the Order Management system as well as receive events from real-time state changes of the entire order book. Full event history can also be accessed.

The Order Pad shows two views: a single customer and all customers

AutoFill

AutoFill is a flexible process for automatically filling FX orders, allowing a trading desk to specify which orders are to be filled automatically and which orders require human intervention. FX orders, whether Limit or Stop, are maintained in an Order Book by a trading desk, and are monitored until market conditions are met, thus triggering their execution. Based on customizable rules, this fully-automated feature facilitates execution without slippage and enables the straight-through processing of FX and MM orders.

Credit checking

Resting orders are checked for credit availability before being booked. Traders can have the permission to overrule a credit failure and the decision is always recorded for auditing purposes.

Customer capabilities

Dealer compatibility

Flexibility passing the book

The Order Management module allows for flexibly passing the book either individually or in bulk. Order routing from clients in multiple centers is also possible with executed order messages being automatically routed.

Global reach

The order management module prioritizes trading entities based on a pyramidal organizational structure across the globe, providing support for different types of hierarchies and business practices at different locations.

Multiple order types

Spot, NDF, EFP and Forward orders are supported. Stops and Limits (Take Profit) orders as single, OCOs, Loops, or more complex order strategies are built-in.

Straight-through processing

Straight-through processing (STP) encompasses everything from order entry (including web application and Order API), order processing, audit trail and export of orders to back office systems. It allows direct order execution against real-time streaming rates and either automatic or manual order acceptance. STP also enables passing the book over multiple time zones so that clients can place orders 24 hours a day via the Internet.
