TradeStation Securities, an online securities and futures brokerage, recently entered into a strategic partnership with a technology solutions provider known as CQG. The partnership will allow TradeStation to integrate CQG’s trading tools and enable multi-asset trading on its platform.
How will CQG’s technology help TradeStation Securities?
CQG is a company that offers trading solutions to brokers and traders alike. Its integration with TradeStation marks a major step in multi-asset trading, as it will allow investors access to an advanced set of tools, that will let them navigate the financial market seamlessly, and access new opportunities.
According to the president and CEO of TradeStation Group, John Bartleman, his company’s work with CQG’s Integrated Client platform marks a major step in TradeStatin’s long-term goal of delivering the ultimate trading experience. Now, with new tools enabled for TradeStation Securities, the company will be able to service its customers better than ever.
“With CQG, individual investors can access a new set of advanced tools to help them chart their own destiny in the financial world,” he added.
The integration represents an important step for another reason, as it will allow TradeStation Securities’ clients to leverage CQG’s specialized tools. That also includes aggregation capabilities, as well as the auto spreader. These capabilities will improve the analytical prowess of all traders who use them and allow them to tap into greater trade execution efficiency.
TradeStation continues to improve its service
CQG was founded in 1980, and these days, it provides numerous global exchanges with direct market access thanks to its tools and solutions. Its platform also integrates market data, trade routing, and technical analysis tools. All of this together enhances traders’ capabilities in the Futures Commission Merchant environments.
This is not the only move that TradeStation has made recently to improve its service, although it is the most recent one. Before partnering with CQG, the company also announced a partnership with Plaid in 2023.
Plaid is a data network for the digital financial ecosystem, and its collaboration with TradeStation Group has allowed it to amplify the security and efficiency of its client account connectivity. Meanwhile, it also streamlined the funding process for investors and traders.
With that said, leveraging Plaid’s API tech allowed TradeStation users to link their primary financial institution accounts in the TradeStation platform. The firm’s CEO also highlighted the substantial advantages of the move, citing Plaid’s expanded financial institution coverage, higher funds transfer success rates, faster response times, and more.
