Market briefing

Looking back on the third quarter of this year, I'd say that global markets have held up well. Although we have seen implied volatility remain range bound, volumes across the board increased year-on-year (YOY). Periphery futures and options contracts have benefited from regional geopolitical and event risks, together with short-term spikes in volatility.

Bund volatility continues to trade in the 4%-6% corridor and open interest (OI) is +20% YOY.

Metamako, the leading specialist provider of FPGA-enabled high-performance networking platforms, and the highly-respected Securities Technology Analysis Center LLC (STAC®), announced today a new way to measure timing and time synchronisation. The new STAC-TS™ benchmarks for measuring timestamp accuracy, designed by a working group of trading organisations, timing-related vendors, STAC, and Metamako, are set to be the industry standard. Not only is this an industry first, but the benchmarks are extremely significant in an industry with ever more stringent rules around the precise timing of actionable events.
