Meridian Capital Management Introduces Two New Algorithm’s for Its Futures Trading Arm

Hong Kong, Hong Kong S.A.R., August 15, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Meridian Capital Management, the Hong Kong based investment firm, is pleased to introduce two new execution algorithms to meet the growing demand for its Futures trading arm. The latest update to their trading software release includes new algorithms, which can now be used to achieve a broader set of trading objectives and leverages Meridian's quantitative LiquidTouch model.

"We've seen strong demand from our Futures clients who are looking to reduce execution cost while still maintaining a level of control over their orders," said Roger Ong, head of Broker Dealer Execution Services. "Since these algos have numerous customization options, clients like CTAs, hedge funds, private and institutional traders can execute orders within their stated parameters extremely efficiently in a variety of market conditions."

LiquidTouch, unique to Meridian Capital Management, is a liquidity-seeking algo that looks to fill orders using all available displayed liquidity. It is an adaptive algo that monitors trading impact and adjusts order placement accordingly. Its default behavior is to take liquidity without posting displayed orders in order to minimize information leakage.

The algo executes in-line with market activity by incorporating market conditions, volatility and predicted volume. The algo optimizes order placement and duration with performance measured against the arrival price. Passive order placement can rest at multiple price points, attracting liquidity and minimizing impact.

Meridian Capital Management is a leading provider of hedge funds, equities and futures trading research, analysis and execution services.
