  • TWAP (Time Weighted Average Price) - Executes desired quantity at a constant rate.
  • POV (Percentage Of Volume) - Targets a user-defined participation rate.

The algorithms will be offered as a separate technical service, and requires an agreement with NASDAQ OMX Exchange and Clearing Services AB.
