Last week, on October 16th, IntelligentCross reached a new market share record for notional traded, surpassing 235 basis points single counted. This growth was driven by Tier 1 names, where we exceeded 240 bps. More importantly, as our market share expands, so does the breadth of our offering. Last week marked the fifth consecutive week of setting a new record for the average number of names with active order flow.
Overall market conditions, as measured by post-trade quote stability, spreads, and consistency in intraday volume curves, appeared favorable for algorithmic trading, even as leadership shifted to more yield-sensitive sectors like Utilities and REITs. Nevertheless, average trade sizes in large-cap names declined as IntelligentCross gained market share. We experienced top-5 weeks of the year in both hit rate and daily block quantities executed in large-cap names while maintaining superior post-trade performance versus the exchanges, highlighting our unique performant liquidity.
