Tickblaze Integrates Sterling OMS 360 to Enhance Real-Time Margin Enforcement

Subscribe to our newsletter

Sterling Trading Tech has announced that Tickblaze, an infrastructure engine for proprietary trading firms, has selected Sterling OMS 360 as its order management system. Tickblaze provides a multi-asset trading ecosystem connecting brokers, quants, and traders. By integrating Sterling’s technology into its stack, Tickblaze will make these advanced order management capabilities available to its entire end-client base.

The integration focuses on Sterling OMS 360’s unique ability to provide native, real-time enforcement of Reg T and Portfolio Margin requirements throughout the order lifecycle. This proactive risk management tool is designed to prevent margin violations and reduce exposure to regulatory breaches before orders are executed. It offers full lifecycle enforcement across Excess, SMA, and PDT requirements, ensuring firms can deploy complex strategies with greater security.

This collaboration addresses the industry shift toward real-time intraday margin requirements and evolving FINRA Rule 4210 standards. Unlike systems that rely on post-trade checks, Sterling’s solution allows Tickblaze clients to navigate a complex regulatory landscape with automated, compliant infrastructure. This move reinforces both companies’ commitment to providing sophisticated, risk-aware technology for the global proprietary trading community.
