Trades is a trading system that allows having things under control the whole time. Traders and investors can conduct all sorts of transactions in the stock market when they want to.

The Problem

A few years ago we saw a trend of people going to a company where they manage their investment portfolio.

Today trading systems are becoming more in demand, people prefer to be responsible for their money, to know how much there is, where it is invested, what the state of the stock is, what’s the value of their portfolio, and so on.

But most systems are terribly messy, if you go into the system it takes you a lot of time to find out what is in the system in general and what you want to use.

Inability to adapt the system to your personal needs.

User Research

For my user research, I conducted interviews with seven passionate traders.

65%

don’t use half of the features because they don’t need it.

72%

switched a system due too lack of understanding

78%

were not happy with their current trading system

97%

would like a system that they can control and customise to their specific needs.

The Solution

A system that upon your first entry your dashboard is full of basic features. On the side on the screen there is a button that allows you to add or remove features. 

If there is space on the screen it will add to the main screen but if there is no space another workspace will open and will act as tabs and you can switch between them. The menu above has a lock button and as soon as you press it the lock opens up and you can move and arrange the whole dashboard to your liking. In addition on each feature there is a button on the side of adding or deleting that allows maximum accessibility to the content.

In addition, I added advanced Filtering capabilities to each feature that allows access to all the information easily and quickly.

The Product

I began the design process by creating a list of all the features I wished to include in the product and organizing them into feature pages.

The Design

for this project I based the design on different trading systems and amplified my solutions. hope you enjoy!
