Liquidity Cockpit
for Equities

Liquidity Cockpit for Equities provides an independent, consolidated view of trading activity to reflect the ongoing changes of market structure.

Liquidity Cockpit is designed to give global trading and investment firms enhanced visibility over dark and lit liquidity, and the ability to navigate across a fragmented and dynamic market landscape.

Liquidity Cockpit provides exchanges, buy-side and sell-side firms and market commentators with an overview of market share across all developed European markets, overlaying powerful measures for market quality, and coverage for global developed markets, especially those facing fragmentation, including the US, Canada, South Africa and the main regions in APAC, enabling clients to act on changing market dynamics.

As a result of regulatory change, new order types and trading mechanisms appear and need to be identified. Leveraging the Liquidity Cockpit, equity market participants can recognise these newly classified trades, track market share, and navigate interactions across different liquidity pools.

With our real-time analytics, trading firms, exchanges, dealing desks and issuers can effectively monitor consolidated liquidity, including unexpected off-book trading activity, trades of unusually large size, pending trades and sudden increases in OTC volumes for any stock or ETP.

Metrics

Trading data analytics have until now been available only to the most sophisticated firms with substantial capital investments.  big xyt is breaking the mould by making the capability available to all firms whether their main focus is on trading (or not), and regardless of the size of their budgets.

By mutualising this capability on behalf of the industry, we provide flexible and tailor-made solutions at a fraction of the cost of in-house builds.
