ICAP’s Electronic Trading Community is a premier electronic brokering screen which provides a way to manage the discrete risk associated with cross market exposure. A hybrid system which can be used with or without broker assistance, the ETC screen offers a suite of products on the same screen for both the natural gas and WTI markets. We span a large spectrum: EFS, Pen vs. Last Day, NYMEX vs. ICE Swaps, Block Trading, NN Swaps, NYMEX vs. ICE Basis Switches, and NYMEX vs. ICE WTI Switches.

Our technology utilizes a high performance rules based trading platform supporting order velocities of over 1000 orders per second and response times under 11ms. The desktop trading application (ETC) is a lightweight JAVA based GUI with customizable features designed for quick execution and ease of deployment. The i-Connect real-time push API is distributed as a library available in C++, C#, and JAVA for Linux, Solaris and Microsoft operating systems.
