ED&F Man Capital Markets’ OptionsLive, a trading application for Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Interest Rate Options, has released Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Options Trading algos and analytics for institutional clients including, banks, hedge funds, FCM’s and asset managers.
The addition means OptionsLive is one of the first movers in the industry to provide algos and analytics around SOFR Options Trading as the market transitions away from US dollar LIBOR-linked futures and options, before they are phased out in mid-2023.
OptionsLive gives traders and brokers the entire suite of CME Interest Rate Futures, including Treasuries, Eurodollars and now SOFR, as well as the ability to design, price and trade any option structure using its proprietary algos, yielding money saving fractional execution when available.
The SOFR trading capability was soft launched in early April and is now available to all OptionsLive clients.
