FinanceFeeds London conference draws accolades

From Silicon Valley to Singapore, the world’s algo developers, derivatives traders and institutional leaders met London’s most senior multi-asset electronic trading industry executives

For the first time in the electronic trading industry’s history, yesterday marked a milestone in matching the world’s most advanced leaders with the very upper echelons of the international trading establishment.

The FinanceFeeds Professional Trading Thought Leadership Conference, which was held at The Ned in London was the first in a series, co-hosted by Swedish brokerage Scandinavian Capital Markets, and focused on detailed anecdotes from longstanding traders who have developed quantum scientific solutions, have invented their own algorithmic platforms and who manage very large sums of institutional investors’ funds.

Discussing the very poignant and necessary evolution that the FX industry needs and is absolutely ready for, senior leaders of the electronic trading sector engaged with hedge fund managers, institutional traders and movers and shakers from across the globe, looking closely at how to build a new and sustainable ecosystem for the advanced trader.

Data and AI were very much central talking points, and the panel discussion, led by four elite leaders of some of the world’s most important trading facilities, was highly interactive, looking at how to use data.

Important deals were struck with high net worth traders and trading professionals that can only be accessed via this invitation-only, private event.

Professional interviews, videos and detailed aspects of the subjects discussed during the day will follow over the course of the next few days, however until then, here is a photo montage of the day’s event.

Time for brokers to add options trading as volumes explode on high volatility

“Usually, adding options to the typical CFDs and equities offering leads to fragmentation of the platform technology as many brokers will need additional back-end and front-end components, and that could be an important barrier for them. Apart from that, legal hassle and costs associated with proper licensing of market data could be a barrier at first. We are seeing this trend among market data vendors and exchanges to make it easier and more affordable.”
