Our Services
World-Class Execution
We guarantee discreet, conflict-free, and cost efficient execution with minimal impact across global markets.
As a family-run firm, we aim to treat our clients’ orders just as we would our own. Discretion is of the utmost importance. We do not shop orders. We cover our clients as one team.
We offer our clients high-touch trading across global markets. We can effectively capture liquidity throughout the day and deliver our clients best execution by utilizing our nearly 50 years of experience.
We analyze incoming baskets for lines that may have potential market impact and utilize our high-touch trading expertise along with our proprietary algorithms and access to the NYSE D-Quote at the close to achieve best execution.
We take advantage of our access to the the NYSE, Nasdaq, European, and Canadian markets to offer our clients an opportunity for both Pair and Dollar-Neutral trades across all global cash equities.
New York Stock Exchange Access
We capitalize on our direct access to the New York Stock Exchange Trading Floor to best serve our clients.
As a member of the New York Stock Exchange, we have access to utilizing D-Quote orders. This order type allows us to place, modify, and cancel market-on-close orders right up until the closing bell. This gives our clients the utmost flexibility possible at the most pivotal time of the day.
Our experienced team of floor brokers offer parity on all NYSE traded stocks. This allows us to attain higher fill rates in comparison to an off-floor trader. This advantage leads to better averages and helps us achieve best execution on the behalf of our customers.
Our team can hold the opening of a stock in order to provide our clients with a menu. This menu effectively gives our clients more transparency via the ability to choose the price and volume at which a stock will open.
We can access market-on-close imbalances at 2PM ET, one hour and forty-five minutes ahead of the rest of the street. We pass this information on to our clients giving them early access to stock specific and overall market-moving information.
