03/22/2019

Setup administrators can now choose to enable algo risk checks by checking "Enable algo risk checks" checkbox in the Company Settings->Settings->Profile->Preferences section.

03/22/2019

Improvements

Order Entry

When ICE and Euronext connections are configured for specific product segments., the account drop down control in order entry widgets, e.g., Order Ticket and MD Trader, now only includes valid accounts for that product.

03/21/2019

Improvements

MD Trader

You can now optionally hide column headers in MD Trader.

03/21/2019

Improvements

Blocktrader

Details of OTC trades executed through Blocktrader are now fully visible in Fills widget and in the Order Book and Fills panels of the Orders and Fills Widget. Users must ensure that 'Include Trade Capture Reports' is enabled in the Fills settings for each of these widgets in order to see OTC trade details.

03/18/2019

Improvements

Setup App

Administrators can now configure ICE and Euronext connections to be valid only for specific product segments. This allows a Euronext connection to be restricted to Paris products for example. Existing connections can be restricted by adding specific segments using the "Restrict To Market Segments" option. Additionally, when an account is configured with multiple connections, orders will not be routed to a connection that does not support the product.

A separate enhancement will be added soon that prevents traders from selecting an account that is not configured for the instrument's product segment. Until then, orders on incorrect accounts will be rejected.

03/15/2019

Improvements

Setup App

Customers can now optionally segregate order flow per product on ICE and Euronext. Setup administrators can configure multiple segments for each connection by selecting the required segments under Connections->Additional Settings->Restrict to Market Segments.

03/15/2019

Improvements

Setup App

Setup administrators can now configure overrides on exchange-specific user or account fields for each TT Synthetic order type by selecting the specific order type under "Algo Name" in Order Tag Defaults.

03/15/2019

Improvements

Algos

We have released two new public OMA algos -- "OCO 2" and "Conditional" -- which each take two child orders as legs. These algos can be assigned to custom action buttons in MD Trader for quick access (note: you must select a template other than <none> when assigning them to buttons). After selecting one of these in an MDT, you can place new orders as the OCO 2 or Conditional legs in that MDT or other MDTs. Alternatively, you can link existing orders as OCO 2 or Conditional orders via Shift + right click on existing working order cells in that MD Trader or other MDTs. See the documentation for more details.

Improvements

Excel Linking

You can now establish Excel links to widgets located in child windows in TT Desktop. Previously, TTD only supported linking to widgets within the main desktop window.

03/11/2019

Improvements

Autotrader

We have completed the transition to the new Autotrader widget that began in November 2018 with the introduction of a new Autotrader widget. In January 2019 we prevented the ability to create new instances of the Autotrader (legacy) widget. Since that time, Autotrader (legacy) widgets saved in workspaces continued to function and displayed a reminder message to upgrade to the new Autotrader. Now, all Autotrader (legacy) widgets have been auto-converted to new Autotrader widgets along with their Excel links.

03/11/2019

Improvements

General

TT users now have the ability to send RFQs on LSE and IDEM exchanges. Full RFQ abilities from Market Grid, MD Trader, Strategy Creation, Options Chain and RFQ Viewer are supported with this release.

03/11/2019

Improvements

Strategy Creation

TT has added support for Strategy Creation on LSE, IDEM and CurveGlobal exchanges. All exchange-supported strategy types can now be created using the Strategy Creation widget.

03/08/2019

Improvements

Positions

The Positions widget now supports a new "Risk Group" grouping choice. When selected, note that Margin and Balance columns are calculated independently of the child accounts.

03/08/2019

Improvements

Positions

The Positions widget now includes a new right-click menu option to show a "summary" row across the top. Note that when using "account" grouping, the summary row will reflect the actual overall position. For example, if parent account A has a NetPos of +500, and it's only child account A.1 has a NetPos of +300, it can be assumed that the parent account A has it's own direct position of +200. The summary row will display +500, not +800 in this case.

03/08/2019

Improvements

Excel Linking

Improved the performance of Excel links into Autotrader with a new release of the TT Excel add-in. This release also includes a fix for linked values sometimes being presented with incorrect extra precision.

03/08/2019

Improvements

Setup App

Setup administrators can now capture all orders/fills data on a FIX DropCopy session by checking the "Assign All Accounts" checkbox in FIX Sessions-> DropCopy Out -> Accounts tab. Enabling this setting will ensure that *all* available accounts for the entire Company will assigned to the FIX Drop Copy session. Previously, each account had to be mapped individually to capture and process data.

03/05/2019

Improvements

Order Entry

The order confirmation screen for trigger orders such as TT Stop and TT If Touched now displays payup prices based on values other than Trigger, e.g., LTP, Bid, or Ask, as relative price string, e.g., "LTP + 1" or "Bid + 0".
