Tools for Brokers (TFB) has released an updated version of its Trade Processor liquidity bridge today (Tuesday), introducing several new features and enhancements to its existing functionality.

Tools for Brokers Updates Trade Processor Liquidity Bridge

The international technology company's latest release includes a new order splitting capability for high-volume order processing. This feature allows clients to create splitting rules specifically for A-book orders, designed to secure better execution pricing on large-volume transactions. According to the company, the functionality is "user-friendly and is easy to navigate."

The update also introduces more dynamic routing options through Brokerage Business Intelligence (BBI) pools, which can now be selected in routing rules. Users have access to two pool confirmation modes: manual and automatic. The manual option provides additional protection by requiring user approval for every change before implementation.

Trade Processor is a multi-part modular system developed by TFB that serves as a secure liquidity bridge and market-making order pool. It connects brokers to multiple liquidity providers, enabling efficient trade execution and comprehensive risk management. The system is compatible with major trading platforms such as MetaTrader, cTrader, Match-Trader, and DXTrade, facilitating seamless integration across diverse trading environments.

"Small Changes Can Trigger a Chain Reaction"

For increased security, the new version allows rule lists to be locked in place, preventing unwanted or accidental modifications to their order. The system now also tracks when Feeding/Execution configurations were last updated and restricts changes to outdated configurations, helping to avoid uncontrolled changes and preventing conflicts in complex environments.

This protective feature addresses potential issues in scenarios where "small changes can trigger a chain reaction," particularly benefiting brokers who access Trade Processor via multiple tabs, devices, and accounts simultaneously.

Platform compatibility has been expanded, with Trade Processor now supporting account logins that include text strings. Additionally, the search function in the execution configuration bridge has been upgraded to allow users to search by groups, countries, security, and account colors.

The UK and Dubai Expansion

In October, Finance Magnates reported that TFB opened a new representative office in Dubai as part of its expansion strategy in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

Dubai’s growing reputation as a global financial hub influenced this decision. Its strategic location and well-developed infrastructure make it an appealing destination for financial technology firms looking to enter the regional market.

In December, TFB partnered with UK-based Global Markets Group Limited (GMG) to integrate its Trade Processor bridging system into GMG's trading infrastructure. This collaboration aims to enhance TFB’s operations in the local market. Through Trade Processor’s order aggregation features, GMG traders will have access to more liquidity options and optimized pricing.

Two months ago, in January, TFB formed a strategic partnership with CFI Financial Group. As part of this agreement, CFI integrated TFB’s PAMM system into its platform and adopted several plugins from the TFB Toolbox to improve its workflows.
