Exchange ConnectReal-time information is critical.

Customers need real time access to execute and capture trades across multiple exchanges and instantaneously and accurately incorporate that information within their risk management system.

Exchange Connect 8.0

Allegro’s Exchange Connect brings real-time markets to Allegro’s Interactive Trading Environment (ITE). Customers can enjoy real-time connectivity to execute trades on commodity futures exchanges, as well as real-time trade capture. There are three principal gateways available through Exchange Connect:

  • An interface to WebICE, which allows Allegro 8 users who trade on WebICE to capture their trades immediately into the Allegro solution
  • An interface with Trading Technologies, Inc. which allows Allegro 8 users to execute and capture transactions on 22 of the world’s most liquid commodity futures exchanges
  • An interface with Trayport which allows Allegro 8 users automated trade capture for nearly all European energy exchanges and major energy brokerages

These capabilities, achieved through partnerships with Trading Technologies International, Inc. (TT) IntercontinentalExchange (ICE) and Trayport, provide a true embedded trading platform.
