MFX Vector The advanced algorithmic trading system with a difference

November 2022 in Provider Profiles

MFX Vector is an advanced, fully transparent algorithmic trading system backed by a sophisticated market making engine. We ask its provider MahiFX to take us under the hood to find out more about its key features and functionality.

What is MFX Vector designed to do and what functional components does it provide?

MFX Vector is designed to give you total control over your execution. It’s a revolutionary trading system developed from many years of market-making experience that can be fully customised.

MFX Vector allows you to earn spread as well as handle sweeps and market volatility efficiently.

You can control the levels of aggression, amount executed, and specified urgency giving you complete control over execution.

In what ways does your technology help to make MFX Vector so powerful?

MFX Vector allows you to leverage the same core technology that market makers use to formulate their price and execute trades. This means that every single trade is executed against direct market access (DMA) liquidity, interdealer broker ECNs, or customer ECNs, maximising spread earned while minimising impact in the market. Our technology gives the user the flexibility to control every aspect of your execution and match this with the right liquidity for the right currency pair. Full TCA is also available, offering powerful, real-time analysis throughout the execution.

Our technology is incredibly adaptive too; a feature that is paramount in today’s highly volatile markets. We use signals to identify the strong and weak side of the price, which is then employed as a guide for optimal speed and mode of execution to improve your returns.

Our models also use reinforcement learning to allocate weights to various parameter combinations, and then continuously measures the models to capture changes in market state. This information is utilised to control the mode of execution, whether passive or aggressive, and controls the speed of execution within those modes.
