Globally, the key selection criteria for choosing an algorithmic trading solution remain relatively consistent across regions. Ease of use, access to dark pool liquidity, and proven execution quality are listed as top key drivers for choosing an algo provider.    ![Top-5-selection-criteria-algorithmic-trading-by-region](https://info.clearpoolgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Core_Situational_Blog/Top-5-selection-criteria-algorithmic-trading-by-region.png?width=462&height=325&name=Top-5-selection-criteria-algorithmic-trading-by-region.png)   When we started Clearpool in 2014, we addressed and continue to enhance our offering for all of the criteria listed above to help level the playing field and provide broker-dealers with a competitive, holistic electronic trading technology.   ![Clearpool_Timeline](https://info.clearpoolgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Core_Situational_Blog/Clearpool_Timeline.png?width=902&height=232&name=Clearpool_Timeline.png)   Fast-forward to 2025. We have a global AMS offering and are steadfast in our commitment to powering the electronic trading solutions for over 150+ broker-dealer clients leveraging the Clearpool Algorithmic Management System (AMS). As the market microstructure has evolved, we’ve listened to our clients, collaborated on algo customizations, analyzed performance, and continuously developed the AMS. We have experimented, analyzed, and optimized strategies to achieve better-quality executions and address specific trading intents. As of last week, we are transitioning from our suite of 21 strategy configurations (Explicit, Implicit, and Balanced) to **CORE**. The Clearpool **CORE** algo suite features optimized strategy configurations for high-performance liquidity sourcing, schedule driven and dynamic algorithms that are **C**onfigured and **O**ptimized, with curated **R**outing protocols to achieve better quality **E**xecutions.   ![Core_Table](https://info.clearpoolgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Core_Situational_Blog/Core_Table.png?width=463&height=415&name=Core_Table.png)   With the launch of the **CORE**, we are also introducing our Situational algo configurations. The Situational algos are custom configured and built off the **CORE** algos foundational framework and are further customized to maximize performance for specific trading intentions.   ![Situational_Table](https://info.clearpoolgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Core_Situational_Blog/Situational_Table.png?width=463&height=244&name=Situational_Table.png)     In addition, our new suite is designed to take advantage of some recent product innovations, such as: - Opportunistic Triggers - Open & Close Auction Optimizations - Low Latency Router Enhancements - Parent Order Aggregation - Analytic Suite Upgrades  Leverage Clearpool algos across our product offering of algorithmic trading solutions.   ![Product_Table](https://info.clearpoolgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Core_Situational_Blog/Product_Table.png?width=463&height=572&name=Product_Table.png)   We are excited to introduce our new algorithm suite and look forward to sharing future product innovations as we continue to help broker-dealers analyze and optimize algorithmic trading strategies, offering total visibility and control from strategy to execution.
