Japanese Market Customization
Finance Magnates has conducted a more in-depth interview with the company’s Global Head of Sales, Michael Berman, asking some questions about the specific changes that were necessary for the Japanese Market.
What are the main customization aspects that were necessary for development of the DxTrade-based solution?
Customization was made for the front-end and back-end trading platform systems to be in line with the local market. In particular we had to add support for Shinyo, which is Japanese specific margin trading, comply with local regulations, implement commissions calculation and perform many other tasks.
What made you target the Japanese stock market?
We chose Japan as our strategic market, as we see huge potential in their Capital Markets industry. Japan is known for the fast adoption of innovations in many sectors, including the financial industry. We feel that it is the right moment to introduce a new trading platform, especially when working side-by-side with such a strong partner as Intelligent Wave Inc.
How challenging was the localization to Japanese and are there specific UI changes that were necessary to cater to Japanese traders?
In Japan trading terminals are significantly different from those we are used to seeing in Europe and North America. Traders perceive information differently and in many cases in an opposite way.
For example, in the Eastern culture the red color symbolizes wealth and luck, so we had to set it for positive indications, and blue for negative indications. This affected price change notifications and even graphs. The trading platform itself was tailored to support almost twice as many colors for various indication purposes.
The order book view was localized, since the Bid and Ask columns are swapped in Japan. Order entry was adopted and used to support new types of group orders such as “OCO”, “If then”, “If then OCO”. The order entry interface became more complex with a need to show the relation between orders inside the group.
These are just some of the changes we introduced to dxTrade to support the Japanese method of stock trading.
