New! Fixed Income Features

CQG has improved its industry-leading order execution, market data, and analytics platform by providing enhanced functionality for fixed income traders.

Features include:

• Spread across Multiple Accounts:  CQG Spreader, developed exclusively for spread traders needing sophisticated order management and ultra-low latency execution, now allows traders to spread between multiple brokerage accounts. For example, a trader can spread US Treasuries against US Treasury futures even when they have different brokerage accounts for
  these instruments.
• Hosted Direct Market Access to All Major Treasury Exchanges:  CQG is the only hosted solution to provide trade routing to the four major exchanges for US Treasury instruments: BrokerTec, BGC, Chicago Board of Trade, and ELX Futures.
• Aggregation:  CQG has added server-side aggregation to its Hosted Exchange Gateways. This enables traders to automatically trade similar instruments on two or more exchanges with CQG’s server-side order routing gateways managing where the trades get filled based on
  the trader’s preferences.
• Yield Pricing:  Traders can now trade fixed income securities, including futures on these instruments, based on yield.
