The market data company introduces new product to address trading firms' analysis challenges.
Trades Plus combines trade information, classifications and analytics to reduce coding requirements.
BMLL
Technologies launched its Trades Plus dataset today (Tuesday), marking the
first time the market data provider has developed a product directly from
feedback gathered from customers.
The new
offering combines detailed trade records with proprietary classifications and
market analytics, allowing trading firms to conduct execution analysis without
building custom code. The product aims to address what the company says is a
widespread problem among institutional investors who spend significant time
managing inconsistent data feeds.
BMLL Launches
Client-Driven Dataset for Trading Execution Analysis
BMLL
created the dataset after receiving consistent feedback from members of its Client
Product Advisory Board, which includes sovereign wealth funds, asset managers
and proprietary trading firms. These clients reported spending considerable
time combining different data sources to conduct transaction cost analysis and
execution studies.
Dr. Elliot Banks, Chief Product Officer at BMLL
“Traders
and analysts need to combine trade data with quote data to generate TCA, Best
Execution Analysis or compare Market Quality, using a combination of data
feeds,” said Dr. Elliot Banks, chief product officer at BMLL. “To
date, this has been a highly repetitive, iterative, and time-consuming
process.”
The company
claims research that previously required 100 lines of code can now be completed
with just three lines using the new dataset. The product includes BMLL's trade
classifications, extensive trade flags and order book analytics in a single
feed.
Paul
Humphrey, BMLL's chief executive, said the advisory board members described
spending “all day long grappling with poor data” and wanted an
off-the-shelf solution. The feedback prompted BMLL to consolidate various data
elements into one standardized product.

“Our
CPAB members include sovereign wealth funds, global asset managers and
sophisticated proprietary trading firms, including global banks and liquidity
providers,” Humphrey said. “These firms were grappling with the same
issue – collating poor quality and disparate data sets into an acceptable,
consistent and usable standard.”
One
advisory board member testing the product noted the computational benefits of
having trades automatically matched to quotes. The client highlighted the
improved trade classification capabilities, calling it “a real and
significant challenge for us and most of our peers.”
Market Expansion Following
Recent Partnerships
The launch
comes as BMLL continues expanding its market coverage and client base. The
company recently
partnered with Ultumus to enhance ETF trading analytics, with early results
showing a European ETF issuer achieved a 16% reduction in spread threshold
breaches and 12% performance improvement using the combined datasets.
BMLL also partnered
with Wamid, the technology arm of Saudi Tadawul Group, to deliver Saudi
Arabia's first cloud analytics platform for institutional investors and
quantitative analysts. The multi-year deal provides market participants in the
Kingdom with access to historical order book data through a Python-based
environment.
Product Availability and
Technical Specifications
Trades Plus
is immediately available for European markets through BMLL's Data Lab research
platform and Data Feed services, accessible via AWS S3, API, SFTP and
Snowflake. The company plans to release US market data in early fourth quarter
2025.
The dataset
includes distinct trade classifications for on- and off-exchange activity,
filtering capabilities for retail and block trades, and order book analytics
for calculating metrics like spread capture and price improvement. Users can
access the data through BMLL's scalable Python research environment.

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
