Algorithmic Trading Software
Create and Control Your Unique Algorithmic Trading Strategies
The Progress® Apama® algorithmic trading platform is the market-leading platform for algorithmic trading, enabling both sell-side and buy-side traders to leverage proprietary trading strategies, rather than rely on packaged "black box" algorithms. Apama's "white box" platform puts control in the hands of traders, who now can create, test, deploy, and manage unique algorithmic trading strategies.

The sell-side can also use Apama to support buy-side clients, ensuring a sell-side firm that its algorithms offer competitive advantage over others in the market. Alternatively, buy-side firms can choose to deploy Apama directly within their operations. Apama's rapid "develop & deploy" tools allow the buy-side to take direct control of trading strategies, gaining enhanced flexibility in choices for trade execution - including direct market access. |
