CQG, Inc., the industry-leading order execution, charting, and analytics provider for global, electronically-traded futures markets, now provides low-latency trade routing and consolidated market data access to the Mexican Derivatives Exchange (MexDer).
“The addition of MexDer, one of the most important exchanges in North America, is another successful step in our goal to provide advanced trading access to exchanges worldwide,” said Brian Vancil, CQG’s vice president for Exchange Relations.
CQG’s hosted trading gateway provides traders with fast Direct Market Access to MexDer. CQG customers can use both the CQG Trader and CQG Integrated Client trading platforms to trade all the derivative products available on MexDer. The MexDer connection is also enabled for the CQG Spreader, CQG’s server-side spreader. Traders can easily create, trade, and manage both inter- and intra-exchange spread strategies.
“MexDer has strived to achieve structural changes to meet worldwide standards,” said Jorge Alegria, ceo of MexDer. “We are delighted to have an innovative technology provider like CQG that makes our exchange more accessible to firms all over the world.”
CQG’s trading connection to MexDer is the latest addition to a growing list of exchanges to which CQG provides Direct Market Access. Recent additions include connections to the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE), Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), and ELX Futures (ELX). Future trading connectivity is planned for the NASDAQ OMX Nordic Derivatives, the Turkish Derivatives Exchange (TurkDex), and NZX.
CQG’s network of collocated Hosted Exchange Gateways provides low- and ultra-low latency trading connectivity to more than thirty-five exchanges worldwide. Trading through CQG is extremely cost-effective and allows access to worldwide markets without any infrastructure investment, as CQG is responsible for the installation and maintenance of the gateway network and equipment.
