Case Study: FlexTrade achieves real-time interactive trade visualization and faster execution with Altair Knowledge Works

FlexTrade - Customer Case Study

FlexTrade is a global provider of sophisticated securities trading software used by banks, hedge funds, asset managers and other institutional traders. As trading volumes and execution venues exploded, traditional columnar blotters no longer allowed traders to spot trends, outliers or compliance risks quickly enough, so FlexTrade needed a far more interactive, visual interface that let users act on insights in real time.

FlexTrade selected Altair Panopticon for its direct data connectivity and no‑code dashboard/event processing, embedding real‑time visual analytics into the platform with minimal changes. Panopticon dashboards became the primary UI, enabling traders to identify trends and execute trades from the same screen; the integration helped win 2020’s Best Sell‑Side Execution Management System and supported continued sales growth to over 200 institutional clients.
