RJO embraced technology early on, and today offers a robust proprietary order routing network. As a core competency, RJO’s network combines direct connections to the world’s largest futures Exchanges, use of handhelds in both Chicago and New York, Straight Through Processing of electronic trades and 24-hour execution on every futures exchange worldwide. As an added feature, RJO offers Direct Market Access (DMA) for clients who have a need for low latency connectivity to the exchanges.

Additionally, RJO provides clients with four trading options. Although all of the applications boast connectivity to RJO’s order routing environment, each application offers specific benefits designed to service different customer’s needs:

• RJO Vantage is the newest application. It is downloaded and installed on a trader’s PC. Targeted to the individual, Introducing Broker and high velocity traders, RJO Vantage includes streaming quotes, Depth of Market, click based trading, and real time account information.

  • Vantage Quick Tour

  
  
• RJO WEBOE is RJO’s browser based solution. As a Web enabled application, the product is suitable for any customer with a connection to the Internet and a Web browser. No special client configurations or installation of software is needed.
  
  
• RJO CONNECT provides clients who have their own trading application connectivity to the raw RJO order routing network and in turn, to all of the exchanges to which RJO has access. This solution provides a highly efficient connection for ‘black box’ algorithmic traders, as well.

For both front end applications and for the order routing network, RJO has chosen to build, rather than buy, whenever possible. The proprietary nature of RJO’s solution affords clients a customized experience without sacrificing control and quality and allows users to create and transmit orders with speed and efficiency. This fact has not restricted RJO from forging relationships with the industry’s most reputable Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), such as CQG and Pats Systems. Together, these relationships round out the proprietary product line and expand RJO’s reach to every facet of the futures industry.

To help pull the entire technology offering together, RJO created the Customer Relationship Center (CRC). The CRC is designed as a ‘One Stop Shop’ for all trading system needs. Staffed by a team of trading, technology and service-minded professionals, the CRC answers questions about RJO platforms, assists in providing reports, files and other insights into the RJO back office, or simply provides a conduit for escalation to the appropriate department within RJO.
