Omega Pair Trading Engine(TM)
-
Omega Pair Trading Engine (OPTE) is designed as an execution tool for stock pair trading.
Pair Trading is a market-neutral trading strategy in which highly correlated pairs are traded against each other. In selling one and buying the other, pair trading allows profiting from the price movements between the stocks.
The most significant benefit of a pair trading system is that the trade is virtually market-neutral, as it lets the trader gain profit whether the market is going up, down, or sideways. By creating a long position in one stock while simultaneously creating an offsetting short position in another stock, the effect of the direction of market movement is greatly reduced. Profits are generated on the convergence of the paired stocks and not the market direction. In other words, OPTE enables you to profit in any market conditions.
The pair trading strategy requires good position sizing and market timing. Even though the strategy is relatively risk-free, the profit window is so tight that the traders need specially designed trading software to execute many positions quickly.
The advantages of OPTE are its speed, flexibility, one hundred percent automation, and unprecedented ability to send fishing orders.

The Omega Pair Trading Engine (OPTE) automatically executes new layers and covers existing ones. The software can execute and trade numerous positions that a human cannot manage manually. Because of these capabilities, the system can trade a larger group of smaller positions to be more diverse and less concentrated in any given instrument. This diversity reduces the price impact of sending orders to the market, which results in better execution and fills.
Fishing Orders
OPTE sends buys and sells short fishing orders, cancellations, and replacements following stock price movements to execute the desired pair price. After the execution of one of the fishing orders, the software cancels the second fishing order automatically and sends out the appropriate hedge order. The most significant advantage of fishing orders is getting executions inside the bid-offer spread at the optimal price for the set trading parameters.
Speed
OPTE is created with a cloud architecture directly connected to a Market Data Feed. In addition, all formulas are pre-compiled and executed on the server side, allowing you to get your orders to the market quickly. The time between executions of the fishing and the hedge orders is usually several milliseconds, which minimizes slippage.
User friendly
The OPTE is simple, straightforward, and intuitive - yet it gives you a comprehensive overview and total control over every aspect of your trade.
