Challenge

In order to manage market risk, optimizes asset allocation, and increase profits for their users, Quantum Data Technologies provides a machine learning platform, Quantum ML, that leverages a broad base of data from various providers.

Furthermore, these “continuous futures” are offered with a long history further augmenting their machine learning training and backtesting.

“With Market Replay, clients can improve their workflows by efficiently accessing the best data in order to improve their business and their products,” said Mark Wator, Head of Sales, Financial & Media. “At Barchart we are dedicated to providing our clients with customizable solutions. That’s why when we found out Quantum Data preferred streaming minute bars instead of tick data, even though it is rare, we delivered.” added Wator.
