Block Trading Capabilities

The block trading desk offers competitive quotes on large trade sizes, even for illiquid digital assets, by aggregating liquidity across Flowdesk's network of 140+ exchange integrations. Each trade is executed with discretion to protect client information and minimize market impact. The service provides flexible settlement options with multiple delivery and payment methods, including both fiat and cryptocurrency. Deep liquidity access enables competitive pricing across spot, derivatives, and credit products.

Programmatic Execution

Flowdesk's programmatic trading service employs sophisticated algorithms that break down large orders into smaller executions distributed across time and venues to minimize price impact. The system aggregates liquidity from more than 140 exchanges in real-time, providing competitive quotes even on illiquid assets. The programmatic execution engine uses machine learning and historical market data to optimize order placement, timing, and venue selection.
