Partner to Deliver Crypto-Asset Smart Order Routing
Vela announced a new partnership with CoinRoutes to extend the crypto-asset capabilities of the Vela product stack. The phased program will commence with deploying CoinRoutes’ Smart Order Routing platform to provide clients with immediate electronic access to crypto-asset trading exchanges.
CoinRoutes is a leading provider of Algorithmic trading strategies and market data for crypto / digital assets. CoinRoutes software, built from the ground up for digital assets, provides consolidated Market Data & Algorithmic trading that accesses more liquidity than competing platforms. Security concerns for their assets are paramount to them – their clients retain sole ownership over their wallets and keys, using their patent-pending distributed architecture.
Vela’s Crypto-Asset SOR offering, based on the CoinRoutes platform, provides routing to achieve the best aggregate price across all selected crypto exchanges immediately. The platform provides both aggressive and passive algorithmic strategies allowing clients to trade while retaining complete control over their exchange keys and wallets.
The algorithmic trading suite is informed by the full order books of all crypto exchanges and includes:
- SmartPost to intelligently capitalize on exchange economics while minimizing price impact
- Scheduled algorithms to ensure trading is completed within a time period
- Time Weighted Average Price algorithms to trade uniformly throughout a period
