“Real-time understanding of algo performance is crucial for traders, risk officers and portfolio managers. Our aim is to provide them with a powerful tool that offers the visibility and interaction they desire.”

Quantitative Brokers (QB) has partnered with low-code development platform Genesis Global to advance algo transparency, enhance trader productivity, and deliver a customized algorithm performance monitoring platform tailored to QB’s clients’ unique requirements.

The provider of advanced execution algorithms and data-driven analytics for futures, options, and OTC fixed-income markets will leverage Genesis to launch a new order monitoring system that elevates QB’s real-time management and proactive support services for thousands of client orders worldwide.

Monitoring child order execution prices, slippages, and participation rates

QB’s client support and trading teams will be able to visualize data on trade execution performance across asset classes, including futures, options, and US Treasuries.

The OMS will issue real-time alerts on algorithmic performance relative to client benchmark parameters and provide rich analytics to best interpret algorithm behavior. The firm plans to offer the extended algorithm performance management platform to clients in Q4 2023.

The partnership aims to meet client demand for real-time analytics, including child order execution prices, slippages, and participation rates. The system will be a cloud-based, web-native solution leveraging desktop interoperability technologies, enabling seamless integration to client’s existing workflows.

“Real-time understanding of algo performance is crucial for traders, risk officers, and portfolio managers”

Asset Tarabayev, Chief Product Officer at QB, said: “We are thrilled about our partnership with Genesis Global. This collaboration enables us to deliver a next-generation platform to our clients, enabling them to efficiently and effectively achieve their goals in today’s rapidly evolving financial markets. Real-time understanding of algo performance is crucial for traders, risk officers and portfolio managers. Our aim is to provide them with a powerful tool that offers the visibility and interaction they desire.”

Stephen Murphy, CEO and co-founder of Genesis Global, commented: “Monitoring and analyzing the performance of complex trading algorithms illustrates the power of the Genesis platform. The platform can deliver the customizable user interfaces required for monitoring and process the volume of data required for real-time analytics and performance measurement. We are delighted to be working with Quantitative Brokers on this innovative solution.”
