Liquidnet, the global institutional investment network, announced today
the launch of Ecosystem Pro, an intelligent workflow and blotter
management tool designed to help buy-side traders analyze, monitor, and
automate execution strategies across multiple symbols simultaneously in
Liquidnet’s Execution Ecosystem.
Liquidnet’s Ecosystem Pro is composed of three main features: List
Detection, Create Wave and Pro Blotter.
Designed to streamline the actions taken when multiple stocks create a
complex order pad, Liquidnet’s dynamic List Detection allows
traders to pause, leverage Liquidnet’s analytical tools, and assess
which execution tools fit their trading objectives. Once sorted by
trading objectives and order characteristics, traders can then use
utilize Create Wave to action a wave of orders at once. For
example, waves can be sent to the Top Ranked Algo as identified by
Liquidnet’s Algo Ranking Model or to Liquidnet’s Global Trading Desk for
high touch execution. Orders and waves are then grouped for easy
monitoring in Blotter Pro view, allowing traders to act quickly
and efficiently change course as desired.
“In addition to building a massive pool of centralized institutional
liquidity across 46 markets, Liquidnet has also been delivering unique
capabilities to intelligently access this liquidity as well as the
overall market,” said Seth Merrin, Liquidnet CEO and Founder. “And, most
recently, we have added customizable trader intelligence tools to manage
and course correct orders as needed according to individual order
characteristics and market dynamics. This makes up the Liquidnet
Execution Ecosystem.
“Ecosystem Pro extends this functionality and introduces new tools
designed to help our Members navigate this Ecosystem across many names
and market conditions simultaneously,” Merrin continued. “In short,
we’ve combined global institutional liquidity, systematic execution
tools, and analytical insights with the same guidance and liquidity
sourcing capabilities Members have come to expect from Liquidnet for
their single stock orders.”
Having been successfully piloted over the last year, Ecosystem Pro is
now available globally for all of Liquidnet’s 1,000+ buy-side Member
firms that are currently using Liquidnet 5. Liquidnet 5 is a desktop
application for equity buy-side traders that provides access to the
liquidity in Liquidnet’s global execution ecosystem as well as the
Virtual High Touch product suite.
