Post Trade Allocation

The Post-Trade Allocation tool lists all the day's unallocated trades and provides customizable template-based functionality to easily allocate all or some of your trades to multiple pre-approved clearing brokers.

Post-trade allocations offers the following benefits:

  • Allocate trades any time of day:
    • Up until 6:00pm ET for equities.
    • Up until 15 minutes after the allocation was made (or 5:15 PM ET, whichever comes first) for options
  • View and select average price trades by order, and combine multiple orders into a custom average price.

  • Allocate by percentage or share size.

  • Configure allocation settings, display preferences and broker settings.
