XTX Markets, a leading electronic trading firm providing liquidity in the FX/Commodity/Equity/Derivatives markets, announced today that it has partnered with TraderTools as a streaming liquidity provider on its hosted FX trading platform.
Commenting on the agreement with TraderTools, the Head of e-FX sales at XTX Markets, Jan Strømme, said, “The partnership is an important step in our gaining access to select end-users via liquidity aggregators such as TraderTools. We will continue to look into partnerships with platform aggregators which complement our business model as we grow organically over the coming years.”

With the gap that has been growing larger after the Swiss National Bank (SNB) shock in the first quarter of this year, delivering liquidity to the foreign exchange markets has slowly become an unattractive business for big banks.
With the arrival of new technology-based start-ups such as XTX Markets, the void can be filled and the post-SNB liquidity situation on the foreign exchange market can shift away into a new direction.
