Tradeweb is the world’s leading fixed-income, derivatives and ETF electronic trading platform for institutional, wholesale and retail investors and dealers. To improve customer experience, our team consolidated Tradeweb’s Market Data Service and Client Trading Protocol into a single automated trading rules engine. We then implemented several algorithms to be used by the engine to interact with the markets and back-tested to evaluate performance.
