Trading Technologies is a professional-grade futures platform used by serious and institutional traders. It is built around the MD Trader ladder, the Autospreader spread engine, and the ADL visual algorithm builder - and you can drive it all from web and mobile.
TT is the professional futures and options platform from Trading Technologies, built around speed, spread trading, and algorithmic tools. It runs in a web browser, on the desktop, and on mobile, all sharing one login and the same colocated back end.
TT's execution and algos run on servers in colocated data centers, so performance holds up whether you are at your desk or on your phone. Through Discount Trading, TT connects to your futures account.
It is a deep platform that fits active traders, spreaders, and anyone building or running automated strategies.
TT's patented static price ladder for depth-of-market trading, with single-click order entry built for speed and reliability.
Create and trade your own synthetic calendar, inter-product, or inter-exchange spreads. TT works the legs to hit your spread parameters with smart order routing.
Build, test, and deploy automated strategies with drag-and-drop blocks, no code required. Drive Autospreader with ADL, or drive one algo from another.
Charts use the same price feed as MD Trader, so prices match across the platform. Chart outrights, exchange spreads, or synthetic spreads and trade from the chart.
Android and iOS apps with the MD Trader ladder, working orders, positions, P&L, and the ability to pause, resume, or cancel ADL algos on the go.
User-defined strategies, RFQs, and a deep set of order types, with the Autohedger to hedge options trades against the underlying.
A simulated matching engine lets you design and test algos against live market data before deploying them.
Pull live market and position data into Excel through TT's RTD and link values back to drive your trading.
Build high-performance custom strategies and applications with the TT Core SDK in C++ and other TT APIs.
Autospreader is TT's spread engine. You define the legs of a spread and preview the implied market built from the outright legs. When you enter orders in the implied market, Autospreader works the legs to achieve your spread settings.
It handles calendar, inter-product, and inter-exchange spreads, and can quote and trade across multiple exchanges at once.
ADL, the Algo Design Lab, is a visual programming environment. You drag and drop functional blocks to design, test, and deploy automated futures and options strategies without writing a line of code.
Algos deploy to proximity-based execution servers for performance, and you can build strategies across the thousands of products on TT-supported exchanges. For programmers, the TT Core SDK offers a high-performance C++ path to the same engine.
TT's order entry centers on MD Trader, a patented static ladder with single-click entry on a depth-of-market display built for aggressive trading.
Underneath, execution and algos run from colocated data centers on a redundant network with failover, which is how TT aims to keep latency low no matter where you trade from.
TT runs in the browser, on the desktop, and on mobile with one set of credentials. A search-based web interface makes finding instruments fast with a few keystrokes.
TT Mobile carries the ladder, charts, positions, and algo controls to your phone, so you can manage working strategies away from your desk.
