Weekly Highlights

  • January closed as our best month for average daily match volume – one of several new records for the platform! This month we also set records for daily match quantity of demi-block or larger (starting at 2000 shares), shares executed through IOC order type, and IOC hit-rates–including Midpoint IOCs.

  • January also was our third-best month ever for average daily match totals of shares displayed on our free market data feed, IQX.

  • This growth suggests that IntelligentCross ASPEN Fee/Fee and Midpoint are providing value on both sides of the liquidity spectrum.

  • This is possible because of our unique spread-saving liquidity. For January, marketable IOC orders in ASPEN Fee/Fee executed better than the spread over 15% of the time, resulting in 3 bps of spread savings. Passive-peg orders filled at prices better than the passive-side arrival over 24% of the time, representing more than 7 bps savings versus the initial passive-side price.
