Support for 2 New Citi Equity Algorithmic Order Types:

  • Scouter: The objective of the algorithm is to interact with as many pools of liquidity as possible in a very passive method. The algorithm accesses all of the existing destinations and also additional pools of liquidity — particularly any passive, crossing type of venue. These include Posit, Nyfix Millennium, Pipeline, and LevelATS.
  • Dagger: The objective of the algorithm is to execute as much as possible, as quickly as possible, within the desired limit price. The algorithm will utilize Level 2 market data and may send child orders with limit prices through the market. The algorithm will not post any child orders.

Please keep the suggestions coming to support@thinkpipes.com.

NOTE: No action is required on your part. The newest release will be installed the next time you open thinkpipes. Learn more about thinkpipes’ features in thehelp website.

As always, stay tuned for more updates as we continue to build out and up.
