Tips & Tricks

TIP #1:
Snap-to-Grid is now available in RealTick 9.1

Snap to grid offers support of sizing to invisible grid boundaries of 10 pixels when the Ctrl key is pressed and windows are resized.

Normal pixel sizing carries the risk of uneven sizing boundaries within the user’s page. With the new functionality of snap-to-grid, users can now adjust each window so that they fit perfectly each time. Snap-to-grid applies to both vertical and horizontal window sizing.

To take advantage of this functionality just simply hold down your Ctrl key and hold cursor over a window boundary.

Size each window as normally with your mouse.

A perfect fit every time!

TIP #2:
Maximize screen real estate by using the Toggle Window Captions feature.

Window captions can take up potentially valuable screen real estate. To turn off captions, go to Window in the main menu and click on “Toggle Window Captions”.

The more windows you have open on your page, the more screen real estate you keep.

Why RealTick Matters?


I’m very pleased to announce the first-ever edition of our new bi-monthly newsletter, RealTick Matters. RealTick matters because it offers you ultra-reliable access to the world’s brokers and trading markets for equities, options, futures and foreign exchange. RealTick Matters – our newsletter – will provide you with timely updates on advances and evolutions in your RealTick trading platform.

While we’re cautiously optimistic about the new year, it’s clear that the electronic trading tools you use will be even more critical during this period of dislocation and rapid evolution. We’re grateful for your loyal use of our trading technologies and look forward to continuing to provide you with the cutting edge global, broker neutral, multi-asset trading solutions and world-class service you’ve come to expect from us. Especially relevant for institutional users, this month’s feature on Multi-broking 101 will provide you with the information you need to start or expand on your order routing to multiple brokers in no time.

RealTick’s flexibility and customizability help you streamline your trading workflow, and there’s a multitude of tips and tricks we will be highlighting in upcoming issues which will help you maximize the power of the platform (See sidebar “Snap to Grid” and “Toggle Window Captions”.)

In line with our efforts to provide you with access to leading global markets, we’ve recently expanded our coverage of further markets in Asia and Latin America. See this month’s feature Gateway to Asia and Latin America for more information.

Best regards,
Stuart Breslow, CEO/CIO

Multi-Broking 101

Did you know that you can access a network of more than 70 leading global brokers spanning all major asset classes using your RealTick? Worked orders, algorithms, darks pools, proprietary research and analytics are all readily accessible through a set of easy-to-use tools and drop-down menus. Using RealTick to access multiple brokers helps reduce costs, increase efficiency and maximize alpha. Juggling several different platforms or limiting your trading to a single broker can put you at a serious disadvantage in the marketplace.

Getting started is easy:

To access your broker’s products and services via RealTick, contact your broker account representative directly to get the process started.
To find out more about RealTick’s global broker network, click on the RT Connect icon in the upper right hand corner of your RealTick display at any time during your session or click here to view a sample list of RealTick brokers.
For more information on RealTick’s broker network across regions and asset classes, please contact our Multi-Broker team via email at MBTeam@taltrade.com or via phone at 212.679.9000 or +44(0) 207 786 5070.

Once your paperwork is complete with your broker and your order routes are permissioned to your RealTick, accessing your broker is as easy as clicking a drop-down within your order entry window:

Successive windows will be fully customized to reflect the products and services made available by your broker through RealTick.

Multi-broker clients also get direct telephone access to our support professionals via our dedicated multi-broker helpline.

RealTick – Your Gateway to Asia and Latin America

Within the last year, we’ve expanded our global exchange network within Asia Pacific and Latin America. Our latest additions are:

JASDAQ Level 2

Taiwan Stock Exchange
Since its inception in 1961, The Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (TSEC) has kept pace with the market development and the most up-to-date technologies. TSEC works with the Financial Supervisory Commision (FSC), to deregulate and liberalize Taiwan's stock market, and gears itself up more in line with major international markets.

Bombay Stock Exchange
The Bombay Stock Exchange is the oldest stock exchange in Asia. It is located at Dalai Stree, Mumbai, India.

Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo
Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo or BVSP is Brazil’s main stock exchange, located in São Paulo. Together with the Brazilian Mercantile & Futures Exchange (BM&F), the companies have formed the third largest exchange worldwide in terms of market value, the second largest in the Americas, and the leading exchange in Latin America.
