Fidessa group plc (LSE:FDSA) the leading provider of trading systems, market data and global connectivity, today announced that fully-integrated transaction cost analysis enhancements for pre-trade analytics have been rolled out in its basket execution and management (BEAM) solution in the US.
Available immediately, the enhancements are seamlessly integrated within Fidessa's US trading platform and include SOS, an indicator for difficult-to-trade-stocks within a basket, market impact estimators and algorithmic suitability calculations.

Highlights:
- SOS - a numerical ranking of trading difficulty derived from advanced trade pattern analysis
- Market Impact - estimated cost of trading across different time horizons
- Algorithmic Suitability - indication of the likelihood of slippage from a benchmark
- Estimated Time to Completion - estimated time to trade to completion corresponding to varying percentages of market participation

Our experienced quantitative team has developed these analytics using advanced statistical inference, leveraging data from our extensive BlueBox algorithmic post-trade database."
