Collective2 (C2), the online platform which connects investors with independent traders, and IQBroker (IQB), the advanced algorithmic and discretionary trading platform, announced today that IQBroker has been chosen as C2’s first Preferred Trading Platform. Due to the tight integration of IQBroker and C2, IQBroker is now the most attractive platform for publishing trade signals and managing portfolios on C2.

Using IQBroker’s built-in IQScript designer, C2 users are able to program strategies written in C#, F#, VB.NET, R.NET or using Microsoft Visual Studio. IQBroker’s backtesting and optimization capabilities are unparalleled, allowing multiple strategies within a portfolio to trade multiple symbols on multiple exchanges, and to use multiple bar-types, news feeds, RSS feeds, and fundamental data.

For discretionary traders, IQBroker features advanced charting, hundreds of indicators, trade pads, watchlists, DOM, alerts, conditional orders, and much more.

Matthew Klein, CEO of Collective2 LLC said: “The first time we saw IQBroker, our team was blown away. We have not seen anything even close to IQBroker’s capabilities in any commercially-available execution platform or algorithmic trading software. We’re excited to offer the IQBroker platform to Collective2 users.”

IQBroker Founder and CEO Daniel Tochner said: “Collective2’s history of attracting systematic, automated traders is a perfect fit for IQBroker. Whether you are a developer or a point-and-click trader, IQBroker will help you better manage your Collective2 strategies. We invite C2 Trade Leaders currently using TradeStation, NinjaTrader, Interactive Broker’s TWS, or any other platform, to download and give IQBroker a try.”
