Real-Time Trade Alerts
Quickly resolving exceptions means better performance and happier clients.


Why limit the business intelligence derived from order flow analysis, best execution practices, etc. to Equities only. The GRID by S3 offers a comprehensive solution for the Options markets matching that of our highly successful Equities solution.

Real Time – S3 ’s technology solutions for the financial services industry are operating as fast as the markets. Our proprietary and powerful technology known industry wide as The GRID generates trade and order exception reports immediately after execution and sends them to responsible traders and managers. Until The GRID, the industry standard had been to provide exception reports days or even weeks after a missed fill or improper order execution. Real time alerts are available for equities and options as well as financial instruments in international markets. And quickly resolving exceptions means better performance and happier clients.

The GRID is easily integrated into your Order Management System or trading platform and works with all back office technology. Some of the nation’s largest commercial brokerages are already using The GRID with real time alerts to give their trading floors the ability to pro-actively address orders that do not meet their business standards. Using the MSE, you will have the capability to easily resolve exceptions on orders to help you build customer and market satisfaction whether you are dealing in US domestic equities and options or are working in global markets such as the European Union and the new Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID.) The GRID delivers the necessary transparency to insure best execution and unparalleled business intelligence through trading cost analysis.
