Overview
Country/Region: Canada
Industry: Proprietary Trading
Customer Profile:
Sigma Capital Trading is a proprietary trading firm focused on the development of futures and options spread strategies.
Business Situation:
Sigma needed to minimise the manual effort spent on developing and back-testing futures and options spread strategies. To achieve this, they recognised the need for a fast and efficient database capable of storing time series data and an alternative means of managing analytics, which previously had been done manually using Excel.
Solution:
Sigma commissioned Xenomorph on an R&D basis. The two firms worked together in an iterative and interactive way to gather requirements, resulting in the development of the TimeScape Spreads Application which was tested and implemented successfully to resolve the issues identified above.
