RealTick Enhances Options Functionality
RealTick has expanded its options functionality with advanced execution capabilities and tools for trading in European, Asian and U.S. markets.
The latest release, RealTick 9.3 includes enhanced spread trading capabilities for users to interact with the ISE spread (complex order) book for multi-legged options strategies. The platform also now offers an indicative spread montage across exchanges for enhanced use of RealTick managed spreads. Users can also now automatically delta hedge options positions.
Peter Ward, Head of International Sales at RealTick, said in a statement, “We continue to see accelerating multi-asset usage through RealTick. Traders are looking to increase trading opportunities and investment returns through the use of additional and linked multi-asset strategies. This package of advanced functionality is in response to that demand, providing clients with further cross asset capabilities in a single platform.” He added, “In addition our broker partners want to efficiently offer a broader range of markets and electronic execution services, in particular direct to market and algorithms in options and futures markets, on top of their existing equities execution available to clients.”
