At Hold Brothers we are devoted to our traders, our technology and especially our trading software. Our traders deserve the best DAT (Direct Access Trading) software possible - a platform that suits their styles and needs to perfection. So we developed GrayboxT to help maximize our traders' ability to perform. The key to reaching the full potential of GrayboxT has been our rigorous development process. GrayboxT has incorporated over 70 man years of programming. We've empowered several software developers, many with trading backgrounds, to emulate the best software features in the industry and add even more special features making GrayboxT the most configurable trading software to date. GrayboxT accommodates all styles of trading. And the development doesn't stop there.

Here are some more impressive GrayboxT developments:
Fast - Designed especially for active traders, one of the industry's most advanced smart order systems lets you send multiple executions to every ECN, at different prices, with a single keystroke and less than a second of your time. Multi-server architecture means you can execute hundreds of trades a day without worrying about system overload.
Comprehensive - State-of-the-industry ECN list and book info. Plus all the data you need, from Level II quotes to late-breaking news, built right into the trading screen. You never have to take your eyes off the trade. For listed trading we utilize different DOT providers
Customizable - GrayboxT software was developed to support not only one trading style but multiple styles such as scalping, momentum, swing and position. Now you don't have to limit your style to match your software. GrayboxT can handle them all.

Black Box
Hosting:
You'll get the GrayboxT Software Developer's Kit (SDK) with full access to its application programming interface (API) that allows external applications to access the execution functionality of the GrayboxT trading system and use it as a platform to manage order flow. Simple ActiveX controls send and manage orders, maintain positions, and can be easily integrated with a C/C++ or Visual Basic application. Utilize canned code of some of Graybox'sT popular order logic routines, like smart orders. External Applications can control every aspect of an order, from Time In Force to specifying reserve quantities, risk and compliance features, and back office activities (e.g. blotters, daily reports, etc.). The API is shipped with a sample application and source code that can help in reducing the integration time cycle.
With our hosting services you gain access to our infrastructure and programming that has been optimized for speed. Latency speeds, the average time lag between sending an order out and receiving the confirmation from the ECN, are minimized. We have direct connections to most ECNs, namely: Island - ISLD, Instinet - INCA, Bloomberg Tradebook - BTRD, Archipelago - ARCA, Brass Utilities - BRUT, Nextrade- NXTD and Track Data - TRAC. Plus direct access to SuperMontage as well as two DOT direct connections and two additional DOT providers. This technology takes advantage of many esoteric liquidity grabbing features found in GrayboxT like dynamic and static smart orders, baskets, blasting, super ECN ordering, and adjustable close out features. In our industry hundredths of a penny can be the difference between success and failure.
