FlexTrade Systems, a global leader in multi-asset execution and order management systems, and EDX Markets (EDX), a leading digital asset technology firm that combines an institutional-only trading venue with a central clearinghouse, today announced the integration of EDX into FlexTrade’s crypto and digital assets trading solution, FlexDigitalAssets. The new initiative provides institutional and hedge fund clients with seamless access to EDX’s institutional-grade trading venue and central clearinghouse directly within FlexTrade’s EMS, enabling a unified workflow for trading, execution, and clearing.
Over the past two years, institutional adoption of digital assets has accelerated globally as firms actively seek to align their subsequent trading activities and workflow with best practices from equities, fixed income, and FX. Through this integration, EDX’s market and central limit order book (CLOB) are delivered directly into the FlexDigitalAssets Order Blotter, enabling clients to access and interact with available liquidity in real time.
Using the combined solutions, clients can execute via click trading or API-based workflows while benefiting from full order book depth through FlexTrade’s aggregated liquidity view. Additionally, traders can leverage EDX’s liquidity using FlexTrade’s rules-based automation tool, FlexAlgoWheel, to build rules-based workflows that automatically route digital asset orders based on criteria such as order size, liquidity conditions, or venue-specific pricing. Together, these provide a seamless, end-to-end solution that delivers the performance, reliability, and transparency standards expected by institutional participants.
Tony Acuña-Rohter, CEO of EDX Markets, noted: “Through this integration, we’re extending access to our centrally cleared, institutional-grade venue through a platform already embedded in many global trading workflows. This powerful combination enables clients to benefit from enhanced price discovery, greater liquidity depth, and stronger execution performance.”
Uday Chebrolu, SVP – FX and Digital Assets at FlexTrade, stated: “As institutional participation in digital assets evolves, our clients seek the same level of control, transparency, and efficiency they expect in traditional asset classes. By integrating EDX into FlexDigitalAssets, we enhance these capabilities, allowing firms to access institutional-grade liquidity and clearing within a unified trading environment. As digital assets increasingly move into the mainstream, this integration demonstrates our commitment to enabling our clients to trade all asset classes using a consistent set of tools, workflow, and automation logic from a single platform.”
