October 13, 2018 — The first of its kind service for real-time execution quality scoring Tradefora.com announced its cooperation with Serenity-Financial.io to provide real-time trade-by-trade execution quality analytics to all Serenity-Financial members.

Stanislav Vaneev, Serenity founder

“I’m convinced that conjoined efforts of tech companies whose goal is to create a safe and transparent space for trading will lead to truly significant changes in the non-exchange market. It’s a synergy of two companies that share the same goal. We’re very happy to be working with Tradefora. This company meets the highest standards in terms of quality of the services they offer. They work with massive amounts of data, which allows analyzing the prices of trades and the quality of their execution with utmost precision. We plan to finalize the integration with Escrow within two weeks. It will become the final point in the Serenity Escrow roadmap. After that, traders will get a unique, technologically advanced, functional platform for secure and transparent trading with any broker.”

Tradefora.com provides a real-time Transaction Cost Analytics (TCA) and trade execution scorecard to all of its users, bringing out into the open any suspicious pricing or sub-par execution practices with highly visual charts.

The real-time trade verification will be conducted via an API connection. All the trades conducted within the Serenity-Financial ecosystem will be automatically pulled into Tradefora database, where they will be cross-checked against the market average prices, which will ensure that traders are getting a fair execution and best market pricing. Smart contract technology of Serenity-Financial will further allow automating the settlement of those trades that pass the verification and further more detailed review of those trades that don’t with built-in arbitration mechanism.

“We are very excited to start this cooperation with Serenity-Financial, because it creates a perfect showcase for the real-time trade verification technology. This is the first project of it’s kind in the market. Coupled with smart contract escrow, we believe that it sets a new benchmark for the retail OTC market. For decades brokers have been boasting lowest spreads and fastest execution, now we finally have the tools and infrastructure to not only verify those claims, but to settle the trades based on such real-time verification results”- mentioned Pavel Khizhnyak, Tradefora Co-founder.

How does this work?

Tradefora’s patent-pending algorithm for analysis of trade execution quality works by aggregating “mystery shopping” live trading accounts from 100+ brokers with an unlimited number of retail traders’ account data across most popular forex, precious metals, energy, CFDs and margin crypto instruments. All the tick-by-tick data is analyzed, aggregated and stored in real-time with millisecond precision to produce Tradefora Composite Index (TCI), which acts as a market average benchmark.

Tradefora’s API is based on the TradeGuard tool. TradeGuard technology evaluates each trade by comparing it the execution price against TCI market average before and after the trade with millisecond precision. The resulting 5 score levels are based on which quantile the trade price falls into in the TCI statistical distribution for the execution timestamp using Box Plots statistical method.

“The time has come for the retail OTC space to become more transparent and more mature”, stated Tradefora’s co-founder Pavel Khizhnyak. “We are looking forward to working with Serenity-Financial and bringing more transparency and accountability to the OTC space”, — he added.
