Strategies
Strategies are pre-configured execution methods designed to help traders achieve specific trading objectives. Each strategy is built on a core execution trajectory—such as VWAP, TWAP, Target Time, or Implementation Shortfall - with additional pre-configured advanced settings that control how trades interact with the market. These strategies streamline execution decisions, allowing traders to optimize for speed, cost efficiency, and market impact.
Available Strategies
Impact Minimization – Spreads orders over time to reduce market impact using a VWAP trajectory. Ideal for large trades requiring discreet execution.
Time Constant – Executes trades at a consistent rate over a fixed duration. Suitable for traders who need steady, predictable execution.
Target Participation Rate – Adjusts execution dynamically to maintain a fixed percentage of market volume. Ensures proportional participation based on real-time trading activity.
Market Maker – Places passive-only limit orders to maintain market presence while minimizing taker fees. Best suited for cost-sensitive strategies.
Aggressive Taker – Prioritizes speed with front-loaded execution, ensuring quick fills. Ideal for urgent trades requiring immediate liquidity.
Aggressive Maker – Uses passive-only limit orders with a 25% participation target, balancing execution speed and cost efficiency.
Target Time – Concentrates execution around a specific future event, making it ideal for event-driven trading strategies.
Each strategy is designed to align execution with market conditions and specific trading goals. For detailed configurations and use cases, refer to individual strategy sections.
