Thomson Reuters Adds Futures and Options Execution Application for Commodities Traders in Eikon
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Commodities traders now able to execute futures and options directly from
Thomson Reuters Eikon using OptionsCity Software App, helping eliminate
expensive duplicate fees for market data services
NEW YORK/LONDON, July 19, 2016 - Energy and commodities traders can now execute
futures and options orders directly from Thomson Reuters Eikon, helping reduce
the need to pay for expensive market data fees across multiple platforms without
sacrificing functionality. The service is provided through City Execution, a
third party app developed by OptionsCity Software and now available via App
Studio on Thomson Reuters Eikon.
City Execution is supported by the major global clearing firms and is seamlessly
integrated into the Thomson Reuters Eikon platform. Users can access spread
data, futures and options, and execute trades while also accessing all other
news, data and analytical tools available on Thomson Reuters Eikon. Having both
data and trading functionality available on one platform creates a better
integrated workflow and eliminates the need for trading firms to pay for
multiple execution platforms and data providers.
"The addition of City Execution onto Thomson Reuters Eikon exemplifies the
benefits of an open platform," said Leigh Henson, global head of energy markets
at Thomson Reuters. "Through collaboration with innovative companies such as
OptionsCity Software, we are providing energy and commodities traders with a
powerful, single-point solution that may reduce costs and improve both workflow
and functionality."
"With our cloud-based suite of products and APIs, OptionsCity can make it faster
and less expensive for companies to offer innovative new products and tools,"
said Hazem Dawani, CEO of OptionsCity Software. "City Execution builds on our
leadership in the options and futures markets, and we look forward to working
with Thomson Reuters Eikon clients to assist in simultaneously reducing their
costs and improving their workflow."
