In this week’s In the FICC of It podcast, Colin Lambert has another one of his “theories” – this time about why 360T bought GTX – and Galen Stops thinks he knows why CboeFX is doing so well.
They also rail against PR-speak when looking at this week’s news from the crypto and corporate world and ponder the value of corporate treasuries turning themselves into professional FX trading units.
They close out by discussing the possibilities of voice activated trading by creating “eFXa” (Trademark pending) and P&L’s managing editor looks to continue his stellar* run of World Cup predictions by tipping yet another surefire winner.
Online broker CMC Markets has partnered with Tradefeedr, a data science platform built for financial markets, to deploy cloud based machine learning to improve trading analytics and intelligence around liquidity management.
The firm says that the additional capabilities provide for the ingestion, cleansing and store of massive amounts of market and transactional data; high performance computing infrastructure for inspecting, intersecting and querying massive data sets, including data visualisation tools and APIs for extracting the results of analysis for further analysis.
Online trading provider CMC Markets has responded to the recent announcement by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) that retail clients will no longer be able to use their current leverage levels, by creating a new CMC Pro account for eligible clients.
The ESMA changes establish margin limits for clients, rather than the broker-dealers and CMC says the new account will allow clients to continue to trade with their current leverage levels.To be eligible, clients will have to demonstrate that they are capable of making their own investment decisions.
CFD broker CMC Markets has announced the completion of an integration with FlexTrade Systems to enable the wider dissemination of its proprietary CFD liquidity.
The firm says that while dissemination of foreign exchange liquidity is “a rapidly expanding market, as seen with the growth of so-called ‘prime-of-prime’ services”, few counterparties are currently offering anything similar when it comes to CFDs.
CMC Markets says that while its CFDs aren’t available as a default to all FlexTrade clients, those liquidity takers who are interested in trading the company’s 85 indices, commodities and treasuries CFDs can now request to have access.
A Singapore man has been sentenced to 16 weeks’ imprisonment for spoofing contracts for difference (CFD) markets in the city state.
