CQG Spreader
Create, trade, and manage multi-legged, intermarket, and intramarket spreads across accounts and asset classes with CQG Spreader.
The CQG Spreader Core (our collocated servers at the exchanges) uses proprietary algorithms to manage working legs of the spread. Bid/Ask queues per leg in the exchange’s order book are monitored by the spread servers for liquidity.
The close proximity of the CQG Spreader Core to the exchange servers allows order modifications and execution of second legs to occur in less than a millisecond, which means premium placement in the order queues for your working legs. This gives you a big advantage over traders using client-side solutions.
With the CQG Spreader Core, you don’t have the up-front cost associated with a black box solution for low latency. CQG maintains the hardware and manages the exchange relationships.
Spread Matrix and Spread Pyramid
CQG offers two powerful trading tools designed specifically for spread traders.
The Spread Matrix and Spread Pyramid allow traders to trade exchange-traded spreads and monitor both exchange-traded and synthetic spreads. Exchange-traded spreads are exchange-listed instruments for spreads. Examples include reverse calendars, butterflies, and crude versus products.
Traders can also take advantage of CQG’s charting tools, custom studies, portfolio management, and other advanced analytics by combining them with the Spread Matrix and Spread Pyramid.
