Continuum partners with ADVFN to provide Global Order Routing Connectivity

CQG, Inc., the industry-leading order execution, charting, and analytics provider for global, electronically-traded securities, today announces a partnership between Continuum, its enterprise trade execution and data distribution solutions division, and ADVFN, a global financial market data website (www.advfn.com), to offer trade execution functionality to ADVFN's extensive client base.

The partnership enables ADVFN customers to connect to CQG's global infrastructure using Continuum's FIX Connect: A FIX 4.2-compatible API providing trade routing connectivity to CQG's hosted order routing exchange gateways. With this implementation, ADVFN customers will now be able to trade global markets though CQG's gateways.

"Continuum's product line is perfect for firms, such as ADVFN, looking to expand their services to their customers," said Mike Glista, Vice President of the Continuum division and CQG's Director of Order Routing. "Now, ADVFN customers will have the ability to execute trades from the ADVFN Web site via CQG's gateways."

With a presence in Europe and North and South America, ADFVN provides professional-quality market data from exchanges worldwide to more than two million registered users. Coverage includes depth-of-market data from a number of exchanges and spans a wide range of asset classes. By leveraging its partnership with Continuum, ADVFN will add trade routing connectivity to its suite of services.

"ADVFN is used by millions and it is an ideal platform to link users to their brokers and the market. Enabling transactions through ADVFN opens a new chapter for the company and CQG is an ideal partner for this development," said Clem Chambers, CEO of ADVFN.

Firms seeking customized, enterprise-level trading solutions can take advantage of Continuum's API offerings to realize low-latency order routing execution and real-time and historical market data delivery objectives. Front-end functionality is empowered by Development Library, Continuum's out-of-the-box code resource.

Fix Connect, Continuum's Fix 4.2-compatible API, provides access to hosted order routing exchange gateways.
