Fintech company Blue Ocean Technologies, LLC (BOT) and QUODD, a comprehensive market data on demand provider for the financial services industry, today announced a partnership aimed at delivering after hours trading capabilities to global investors.

As part of the partnership, Blue Ocean Technologies will provide its trading intelligence and real-time after hours market data to QUODD’s global clients.

Global retail brokers are increasingly trading US equities overnight. Blue Ocean’s technology enables these overseas investors to trade stocks between 8:00 pm and 4:00 am ET, Sunday through Thursday. Additionally, Blue Ocean’s technology empowers investors in the APAC region to trade US equities during their own business hours.

Brian Hyndman, President and CEO of Blue Ocean Technologies and Blue Ocean ATS, commented:

“Investors are increasingly global, and market data providers like QUODD are facilitating access to data that enables global traders to invest in US markets. The expansion of the global trading trend in equities in new time zones has allowed Blue Ocean to team up with leading fintech providers such as QUODD that make it possible for us to grow our information and reach to a new demographic of investors.”

“Blue Ocean Technologies has rapidly emerged as a leader in the US overnight trading,” said Bob Ward, Chief Executive Officer of QUODD. “We are delighted to be partnering with Blue Ocean to provide access to their real-time data to all our clients. This new partnership is the next step towards QUODD’s vision of becoming the premier global financial market data and content provider.”
