CASE STUDY:
Waddington Stock Trading System
CUSTOMER PROFILE:
Waddington K.K. specializes in all aspects of financial trading and engineering. The company has affiliates in the US and Europe with extensive trading, risk management and analytics experience, who combine to offer expertise across all product and geographic ranges.
CHALLENGE:
Waddington K.K. had an offline trading system wherein the traders submitted their swap spread entries to the company as email attachments. The company wanted an online system that could handle these submissions and report the matched results to specific traders.
The challenge was to create a system, which addressed all the requirements without compromising on security or efficiency.
RESPONSE:
JLD Technology studied the requirements and worked on the functionality needed to support the Waddington online stock trading system. A comprehensive system was proposed with two main sections - Admin and Dealer.
The Admin section allows the admin to add new dealers or modify existing dealers in the system, communicate with all dealers in the system, and view all data (past or present) within the system. The system also allows the admin to lock the database and set a fixing date and time.
The Dealer section allows the dealers to enter credits for all companies in the system, swap spread entries and outright swap positions entries. The dealers can view results for the entered data and all the archives for past inputs and results.
