Trading Technologies International, Inc. (TT), provider of capital markets technology, has integrated Nord Pool for intraday trading, available from December. The move enables TT clients to trade on the two leading European power spot exchanges, Nord Pool and EPEX SPOT, which TT integrated earlier this year. Developed in partnership with a major European energy supplier, the new connection enhances TT’s offerings in physical energy markets.

TT’s algorithmic and automated trading solutions support diverse trading strategies through tools like Autospreader, as well as broker and third-party algorithms. Nord Pool, majority-owned by Euronext, operates in 16 European countries and serves businesses across 20 nations.

Alun Green, TT’s EVP Managing Director, Futures & Options, commented: “With this new connection, market participants will, for the first time, be able to use a single screen to trade intraday physical power on Nord Pool and EPEX SPOT alongside the world’s most popular financial energy products. Our high-speed, colocated platform gives traders unparalleled tools that include award-winning algorithmic and automated trading functionality along with robust risk management capabilities. We’re excited to bring this technology to traditional energy-related companies as well as hedge funds, commodity trading advisors and systematic traders. These firms want to use our sophisticated tools and execution algos to hedge and take positions in related markets from one platform, which can bring a new customer base to these exchanges.”
