The F100 Tool Company was formed in 2001 to provide software trading tools for Equity Option Market Makers migrating from the open-outcry trading floor to the highly automated upstairs electronic trading world.  Over the years, we have worked with individual traders, hedge funds, and proprietary trading firms to help design and distribute custom search, execution and risk-management tools all primarily designed to automate the business process of trading equity options.   Our business offering has expanded to accommodate high-frequency stock and futures stratigies as well.

F100 seeks to selectively engage firms interested in prototyping highly automated grey-box algorithmic solutions.   We will work with you to script your trading logic, attempting to automate as much as possible.   Typically, our customers are interested in expressing their customized logic into the API's of readily available commercial front-end execution systems such as REDI, ITG's Matrix, Real Tick, Actor, and other like off the shelf products.

F100 maintains a roster of programmers and service providers that we customarily work with.  From prototype to co-location, we offer a soup-to-nuts full service algorithmic development team.
