Improvements

Options

In order to provide more robust Theoretical Values and Greeks across more options products, TT will now use calculated settlement volatilities when live market data is insufficient. For options products with sparse market data, a vol curve based on settlement prices will be automatically applied in order to generate options analytics for all strikes.

Improvements

Options Chain

Added additional intervals for heat mapping in the Options Chain. This will allow for more granular monitoring of options which may have wide or illiquid markets.

In the case of a network disruption, Options Risk and Risk Matrix will retain the data from the last successful update, allowing users to view their positions and risk until connectivity is restored.

Improvements

Two columns have been added to the compliance audit trail, TT FIX Client Order ID and TT FIX Original Client Order ID. These fields will be populated when orders are routed to the TT Platform via FIX.

Improvements

Order Entry

We've visibly reduced the time it takes to display the parameter flyout panel for TT Order types and custom ADL algos. The initial launch is still slightly delayed as it downloads the parameters, but subsequent launches for that order type are now near instantaneous upon selecting the order type via all methods, e.g., hotkey press, button click or via the drop down list.
