Execution & Trading

Prospective clients can get in touch with our sales and onboarding team via our Contact page. A representative will reach out to discuss your execution needs.

Clear Street’s mission is to give every sophisticated investor access to every asset, in every market, through a unified platform built for speed, transparency and scale.

We give our clients the technology, tools and service once reserved for the largest institutions, rebuilt with modern infrastructure. Our single, cloud-native, end-to-end capital markets platform powers investor growth today and is transforming how they can interact with markets tomorrow.

Clear Street supports trading across U.S. equities, options, futures and fixed income, including repos. We further support swaps, foreign exchange, UK and Canadian equities and options, metals and other commodities and (coming soon) digital assets.

High-touch execution is best for complex block trades, special situations or when you need experienced traders to source liquidity and provide market color – especially during periods of volatility or in pre- and post-market sessions when liquidity and pricing can become dislocated. Even clients who rarely trade pre- or post-market often find they need access in fast-moving conditions, and having a seasoned desk that knows how to navigate those moments can be critical.

Low-touch execution offers scale and consistency throughout the trading day, with smart order routing and direct access to 50+ venues for electronic fills. There is no one-size-fits all solution and many clients use a hybrid approach, relying on low-touch execution for routine trades and turning to high-touch expertise when markets move fast or liquidity is harder to find.

Clear Street's proprietary algo suite is designed to “think like a trader,” using predictive volume and alpha signals to outperform traditional benchmarks like VWAP/TWAP. Specialized strategies – such as Fox Alpha for participation, Fox Blaster for aggressive arrival and Fox Dark Attack for hidden liquidity – give clients more nuanced control over execution outcomes.

Clients can customize order display size, minimum fill, fee sensitivity, sweep style and venue exclusions. The system supports single- and multi-ticket workflows and integrates with FIX/API and leading OEMS platforms for seamless alignment with client operations
