Large orders are like people

Large orders are like people: no two are exactly alike, but similar orders tend to behave in similar ways under similar market conditions. Orders and markets do not always behave logically (like people), but there are detectable patterns of behavior, and therefore opportunities to predict.

Alpha Pro predicts your order's future by finding parallels in the past. It predicts whether its price is going to trend in or away over the hours (and days) following arrival, or not trend at all: alpha or no alpha, in a nutshell.

Alpha or no alpha? This is useful information, because a trader who controls the speed of execution according to an accurate alpha prediction will outperform one who does not. Alpha Pro gives you critical information to help you choose a trading strategy that can achieve your goals, and gives you a rationale to help you communicate the reasons for your choice. It looks at your order on arrival, looks at market conditions, looks at a database of historical trades, performs an analysis, recommends a trading strategy, and tells you why, all in a few seconds.

But that's not all. Alpha Pro will execute your order as well, applying predictive analytics to choose a sequence of algorithms to execute your strategy over the life of the order, protecting your trade from adverse selection (from HFT, for example) while controlling your trading speed according to your strategy.
