Edinburgh software house Apt Computer Systems has launched FIXcel, a FIX engine add-in for Microsoft Excel.
The product has been designed to give traders FIX connectivity with the simplicity, power and familiarity of a spreadsheet. Says Gordon Black, head of the FIXcel project team at Apt: “With FIXcel, anybody using Excel can now execute trades with FIX connectivity."
The package, which is totally compatible with existing Excel programs, can be installed and working in minutes, says Black.
