Proven Success in Algorithmic Trading
We don't just talk about theory. We deliver measurable results.
Challenge: Building Liquidity for a New Crypto Exchange
A promising new crypto derivatives exchange struggled to attract institutional traders due to thin order books and wide spreads on its flagship perpetual swap contracts. They needed a reliable, high-frequency market-making solution to create a liquid and stable trading environment from day one.
Key Challenges:
- Ensuring constant liquidity across multiple trading pairs.
- Managing inventory risk during extreme market volatility.
- Minimizing latency between signal generation and order placement.
- Developing a system that could dynamically adjust to changing market conditions.
Our Solution:
We developed a high-frequency market-making bot with a sophisticated inventory management model. The solution was built on a low-latency C++ architecture connected directly to the exchange's matching engine via WebSocket APIs.
- AI-powered pricing model that adjusted spreads based on real-time volatility and order flow.
- Delta-neutral inventory management system that automatically hedged positions on major exchanges.
- A resilient, containerized architecture deployed on co-located servers for minimal latency.
- A real-time dashboard for monitoring bot performance, P&L, and inventory risk.
Client Testimonial:
"Errna's market-making bot was the cornerstone of our launch strategy. It created the deep, stable liquidity we needed to attract serious traders. Their team understood the urgency and the technical complexity from the start."
Challenge: Automating and Optimizing a Discretionary Pairs Trading Strategy
A successful hedge fund relied on a team of traders to manually execute a statistical arbitrage pairs trading strategy. The process was labor-intensive, prone to emotional errors, and couldn't scale to cover a wider universe of stocks. They needed to automate the strategy and enhance it with AI to improve consistency and profitability.
Key Challenges:
- Translating the nuanced rules of discretionary traders into a systematic algorithm.
- Identifying cointegrated pairs dynamically as market correlations shifted.
- Optimizing entry/exit thresholds to maximize profit while controlling risk.
- Executing trades efficiently across multiple brokers to minimize slippage.
Our Solution:
We built an end-to-end system that automated the entire pairs trading lifecycle. The core was a machine learning model that continuously scanned the market for high-probability cointegrated pairs using clustering algorithms and time-series analysis.
- A dynamic pair selection module that adapted to changing market regimes.
- An LSTM neural network to forecast short-term spread reversions for optimal entry timing.
- A sophisticated backtesting engine to validate the strategy and optimize parameters like stop-loss and take-profit levels.
- A smart order router that split trades across brokers to achieve the best possible execution price.
Client Testimonial:
"The AI system from Errna transformed our most reliable strategy. It not only freed up our traders to focus on new research but also delivered more consistent returns with lower risk. The increase in our Sharpe ratio speaks for itself."
Challenge: Uncovering Alpha from Unstructured Alternative Data
An established asset management firm wanted to gain an edge by incorporating alternative data into their investment decisions. They were drowning in unstructured data from news feeds, social media, and regulatory filings but lacked the capability to extract actionable trading signals from the noise in a timely manner.
Key Challenges:
- Processing massive volumes of text data from hundreds of sources in real-time.
- Accurately classifying sentiment and identifying specific events (e.g., M&A, FDA approvals).
- Quantifying the impact of news events on stock prices.
- Integrating these new signals into their existing quantitative models.
Our Solution:
We designed and built a comprehensive alternative data processing pipeline using advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) models. The system ingested data from over 500 sources, including news APIs, Twitter firehoses, and SEC filings.
- A custom-trained BERT model for high-accuracy sentiment analysis tailored to financial jargon.
- Named Entity Recognition (NER) to identify companies, products, and key people.
- An event-detection algorithm that flagged market-moving events and scored their potential impact.
- An API that delivered structured, quantifiable signals to the firm's central quant library for immediate use in their trading algorithms.
Client Testimonial:
"Errna gave us the ability to see around corners. Their NLP pipeline is incredibly powerful, turning a firehose of data into a clear source of alpha. We are now making decisions based on information our competitors won't see for hours."

Absolutely. We excel at collaborative development. Our experts can integrate seamlessly with your team, bringing specialized skills to accelerate your roadmap. We can handle the engineering and MLOps heavy lifting, freeing your quants to focus on strategy research and development.
Performance uplift is highly dependent on the strategy, asset class, and market conditions. We don't make unrealistic promises of guaranteed returns. Instead, we focus on delivering measurable improvements in specific KPIs that we define with you at the start, such as:
- Increasing the Sharpe or Sortino ratio.
- Reducing execution slippage and transaction costs.
- Decreasing maximum drawdown and managing volatility.
- Improving the win/loss ratio of signals.
- Automating manual processes to increase strategy capacity.
Timelines vary based on complexity. A bot for a well-defined strategy using standard technical indicators might be deployed in 2-3 months. A more complex system involving novel AI models and alternative data could take 6-9 months or more. Our focus on leveraging pre-built components and an agile process ensures we deliver value as quickly as possible.
