History of Open E Cry

The Future of Trading is Open E Cry

One of the first domestic futures exchanges was developed in the late 18th century, as U.S. debt securities traded on the corner of Broad Street and Wall Street. As the Open Outcry system grew, so too did the complexity of financial transactions. Over 200 years later the Open Outcry method is still the backbone of trading. The incorporation of electronic trading into the financial markets exploded during the 1990's, providing traders with a more efficient method of order execution. As electronic trading has expanded, it is clear that the future of trading has involved combinations of both pit and electronic markets. This is the system of Open E Cry, and the basis for our trade name.
