Rediplus Review
Rediplus is Direct Market Access stock software tool developed by Goldman Sachs Execution & Clearing. It has its presence in all the major markets like U.S., Canadian, European and Asian sources of liquidity for equities. It has some nice features and is very easy to use. It offers hat offers traders the flexibility and speed needed in today’s marketplace. It is very reliable in nature and simplifies trading process to a great degree. The clients can trade across domestic and international markets among various investment schemes from equities to options and futures. It also simplifies manager workflow to a great extent by providing only one trading platform to trade single stock orders, baskets, and algorithms.
A already mentioned Rediplus has some great features which makes it a great success. It offers a process known as SIGMA which stands for smart routing for equities and options. There is a Multi-product global trading platform which makes life a lot easy. It also provides access to Goldman Sachs Algorithmic Trading (GSAT), which includes full suite of algorithms including, vwap, twap, 4cast, participate, piccolo. It also gives full access to GSAT- Pre-trade, real-time and post-trade analytics. It is one of the few market software programs which fully integrates i.e. connects to every major OMS and provides seamless integration for clearing and prime brokerage clients. Another important feature is combined functionality which allows advanced portfolio and spread trading capabilities, integrating single-share and portfolio trading in one system. Very few can match these kinds of features and make best use of it, but Rediplus does this with perfection. The platform also includes real-time quotes, news, charts and time and sales as well as order and position management. The key feature that sets it apart from others is that it provides back-office integration, daily trade reports deliverable in electronic or physical from, and seamless connections through FIX connectivity.
In terms of share volume Rediplus is the largest direct access stock trading software provider and is a great system as it provides all in one execution system that can be customized for hot-keys, buttons & excel spreadsheet. It is used with a chart package like AT Financial or e-signal. The new version Rediplus 5.0f offers oreign exchange trading, options spread trades, complex option order types and futures algorithms. Also RediPlus 5.0 offers the ability to enter a number of different spread orders, such as ISE straddles, as well as combos and butterflies. In foreign exchange, RediPlus 5.0 provides buy- and sell-side traders with access to 60 currency pairs, with request-for-quote liquidity offered by Goldman Sachs.
There are many drawbacks in the system along with the positives. Many times during scalping operations other traders beat the ones using this software thus making huge profits. The system has to have latest operating system else it will not support Rediplus.
The system’s out of date now and others have gone way ahead. The charting technique is not what it is in other systems. Still it is powerful software having the best execution-only platform among others. It is one of the best institutional order platforms available to date.
I like that I can trade both here in the states and in international markets because it presents a better advantage over other traders and programs. In all honesty, the main reason I went with Rediplus was because of the stock house name it had behind it– reputation rules in this world.
There is a lot of access to functions and tools that you almost always need to trade successfully. To me this is the most familiar program so I can recommend it to other traders, plus there you would be hard pressed to find a trader who has not used this platform, so there is always someone around that can help you with whatever you need.
Well if it was developed by Goldman Sachs then that already carries quite a bit of weight doesn’t it? This is a great package for someone who enjoys the flexibility of trading all kinds of world markets at any time of the day or night. I used to know a trader who was so addicted that he would trade the NYSE during the daylight hours and trade the Japanese markets in the middle of the night. He made a lot of money but didn’t sleep much. Whether or not he used this program I don’t know but I’m sure it would have been helpful.
