Release Notes

Explore key releases enhancing trade execution and management.
Settings- Sounds for Algo submitted/canceled orders 
  • Currently, the sounds for “New” and “Cancel” orders play for both manual orders and orders by automated tools. We have now separated the order actions between manual and algo to allow you to be notified when one or the other occurs. To implement this, the current two sound settings have been renamed to reference manual actions, and we have added two new sound settings for algo actions. 
Settings-  Increase number of custom action buttons
  • You can now configure up to fifty (50) custom action buttons on the Order Ticket and MD Trader. Previously the limit was twenty (20) buttons per widget.
OMS  Care order passing
  • We have extended our current OMS order passing ability to now include the ability to pass staged orders.

 

Upcoming

Order Book display Rejected orders for the current session
  • The Order Book and Orders and Fills widget (OFW) now display rejected orders for the current session. A new “Message” column can optionally be exposed that displays the same reject message text displayed in the Audit Trail. The Message column supports filtering/searching on the message text string. A new quick filter button named “Rejected” displays in the top upper right portion of the Order Book, that when clicked applies a filter to only show rejected orders. Also as part of this work, in the Order Book Settings you can also customize the row color for rejected orders.

Display Settlement Date for NDFs and Spot FX 
  • We now display Settlement Date for NDFs and Spot FX in the appropriate grid widgets, e.g., OB, OFW, Fills, Audit Trail, etc.

 

Chris Hehmeyer, CEO. Hehmeyer Trading + InvestmentsChris Hehmeyer and I first started talking about crypto over a year ago, so I thought it would be a great time to catch up with him and hear more about how his firm has progressed from having new initiatives focused on crypto markets to more mature products and offerings. I also wanted to let Chris explain the why behind the reasoning for his firm, Hehmeyer Trading + Investments (HTI), to “go big” in this space and how they became crypto and blockchain believers!

While the name Chris Hehmeyer is probably familiar to anybody close to futures trading in the U.S., this is the Crypto Corner, so I’ll touch the tip of the iceberg on the background of the guy I have admired mostly from afar during my 20+ years in the business. I’ll also mention that Chris was on a crypto panel at the recent FIA Expo 2018 in Chicago, and had a great Will Rogers-esque quip that got a great laugh in the room. In fact, one of my co-workers said after that panel, “I could listen to Hehmeyer talk all day.”
