Custom DXcharts Stocks About the Client Business Challenge Solution Results About the Client Devexpert’s client, a giant in the global fintech space with over 10 million monthly users, has built a reputation for prioritizing accessibility. In addition to focusing on equality, they are also determined to provide tools and services within their platform that are simple and intuitive, with maximum benefit to traders. Business Challenge As the client had successfully created an identity as a uniquely forward-thinking and client-centered firm, they needed a platform with charting and risk management performance to match. They realized that getting it right would require the freedom and flexibility to tailor a solution to whatever degree was needed. When it comes to platform user experience it’s hard to look past the influence of charting. If the libraries and tools a platform provides are clunky, have counter-intuitive navigation, limited flexibility and customization of layouts, and poor UI and design, the combined impact on retention is detrimental. The reality is that traders are unlikely to stick around. The client wanted a charting solution to complement their platform that was tailored to traders on a noteworthy level. They needed to provide a distinctly impressive experience that aligned with their ‘brand promise’ to their clients. This meant they were looking for charting with a modern and attractive UI design, maximum flexibility for traders to create their preferred layouts, and of course, a full range of drawings, indicators, and analysis tools. Solution Charting Devexperts presented the DXcharts source code option as an ideal fit. Deep customization was conducted to create the charting experience that the client had outlined. The integration delivered the following features: Advanced charting tools Multiple chart types, including candle, line, and Heikin Ashi, with customizable intervals and a full suite of technical indicators such as moving averages and Bollinger Bands. Customizable layouts A modern layout engine allows users to build personalized setups by resizing, repositioning, and linking widgets. Real-time data Sub-second data updates ensure traders receive the most up-to-date information for decision-making. Seamless trading integration Users can initiate trades directly from charts, streamlining the trading process. Built-in user analytics Granular reporting enables the client to monitor user satisfaction and performance effectively. For a platform with 10 million+ monthly users, off-the-shelf charting just wasn’t an option for this client. They needed deep customization to give traders what was expected from their brand, in terms of flexibility, speed, and tools. We were able to deliver a high-performance solution that integrated super smoothly with their ecosystem. DXcharts keep traders engaged by giving an intuitive experience. — Denis Krivolapov, Product Manager, DXcharts Risk management To address their need for a high-performance and reliable risk management solution, Devexperts presented a system based on DXtrade.
