Calyon Financial has used Trading Technologies'(TT) FIX Gateway to connect TT’s full suite of X_Trader trading tools to Frontiers, the brokerage firm’s proprietary Asian futures trading system. Calyon Financial clients can now use TT’s platform to trade futures on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Osaka Stock Exchange, Tokyo Financial Exchange, TOCOM, Hong Kong Exchange, Korea Exchange, and the Singapore Exchange.
The X_Trader tools now available for Asian markets include TT’s MD Trader vertical market depth display and order-management tool, the Autospreader and Autotrader automated trading tools, and 30+ plug-in applications including Navigator, which supports smart order routing.
Calyon says that futures volumes in Asia have increased nearly 50% year to date. Some of Asia’s most liquid contracts, such as the Nikkei 225 Index futures, the Japanese government bond, the Euroyen, and the Hang Seng index future, will now be accessible via Calyon Financial to the Trading Technologies trading community.
Calyon Financial and TT are jointly marketing this expanded Asian access.
