Subscribe to our newsletter

Chicago-based trading solutions vendor CQG has launched a new suite of execution technologies designed to give market participants new tools to achieve greater efficiencies and optimal trade execution, particularly for large or complex order types. The new suite builds upon software assets CQG acquired from Blue Trading Systems in June 2020, and leverages CQG’s internally-developed technology aimed at providing smart trade execution opportunities for buy-side and sell-side firms.

Kevin Darby, formerly co-founder of BTS who joined CQG last year to lead the integration of the software, is now leading CQG’s new Execution Technologies business unit.

The offering is available through multiple platforms, including CQG Integrated Client, CQG Desktop and various CQG-supported application programming interfaces (APIs).
