PSS Upgrades Risk Management Tools for Active Traders.
PSS today announced several enhancements to TradingFloor, the sophisticated web based trading platform available to active traders through www.pssinvest.com/trading. The upgrades may help traders better manage the type of volatility currently being experienced in the market. They include powerful bracket order technology, customizable trading alerts and advanced charting tools, all designed to help traders react to the daily and intra-day movement in the markets.
“Given the increased swings in today’s market, it is essential that traders have the ability to react quickly at anytime, from anywhere,” said Berit Svendse, Vice President of PSS’s Active Trading Services. “By upgrading our streaming web-based platform, we’re able to offer active traders even easier, more effective ways to help protect profits and manage risk.”
Some of the specific upgrades to TradingFloor include:
Bracket orders for equity trades to automate profit target and risk management strategies. Traders can set predefined profit and loss targets via the web when submitting an equity order to help cut losses and lock in profits. This technology automatically helps traders manage risk and implement trading strategies when their conditions are met, even when they are not online.
Customizable alerts to track market activity and flag trading opportunities in charting windows and watch-lists. Traders can create specific alerts to monitor different trading situations and price movements in the stock market. Alerts are displayed directly within charting tools and on stock watch lists to help traders actively manage risk and follow the stocks they are most interested in.
Redesigned chart analysis tools to improve ease of use and increase workflow efficiency. The updated charting window increases workspace for avid chartists or technicians while employing new features like volume and price alerts on charts managed from the drop down menu.
