This new release also enables users to automatically delta hedge options positions. This functionality is in addition to previously available options trading benefits around US and European option trading in RealTick including real-time options analytics, volatility based trading and other broker based options algorithms.

“We continue to see accelerating multi-asset usage through RealTick. Traders are looking to increase trading opportunities and investment returns through the use of additional and linked multi-asset strategies. This package of advanced functionality is in response to that demand, providing clients with further cross asset capabilities in a single platform,” said Peter Ward, Head of International Sales at RealTick.

“In addition our broker partners want to efficiently offer a broader range of markets and electronic execution services, in particular direct to market and algorithms in options and futures markets, on top of their existing equities execution available to clients, ” continued Ward.
