Trading & Execution
The indomitable trend of electronic trading, coupled with industry regulation fueling it, places responsibility of achieving and demonstrating best execution on the shoulders of the sell-side and buy-side. EdgeTrade routinely takes a proactive approach to helping clients find a quantifiable best execution; one that exceeds regulatory mandates. Sending orders to exchanges or ersatz liquidity aggregating algorithms (loaded with destination preferencing logic), is a passive approach to best execution with inherent opportunity costs. EdgeTrade goes beyond the mandates of regulation by ensuring clients’ orders "hit" all liquidity sources simultaneously, without any destination preference logic to impede a best execution.
Trading and execution through EdgeTrade are premised on the following, client-centric value propositions:
- Improve performance through agency-only algorithms that efficiently and exhaustively ferret out liquidity and best execution without barriers or conflicts.
- Increase productivity through innovative and facile technology.
- Lower explicit and implicit trading costs.
- Preserve market anonymity and contain information leakage.
