Caplin announces new version of Caplin Trader

Paul Caplin, CEO, Caplin: "Caplin Trader is already seen as the most effective way to create a highly differentiated single-dealer portal. The major enhancements that we've announced in Caplin Trader 2.0 improve that even further."

Caplin Systems Ltd. has announced Caplin Trader 2.0, a new version of the Web client framework for its Caplin Xaqua single-dealer platform.

The new release of Caplin Trader includes a range of functional, user experience (UX), performance and implementation enhancements including new "themes" that serve as starting points for building a rich internet application (RIA).

Enhancements include integrated support for multi-leg trades, list trading via copy and paste from Microsoft Excel, and enhanced charting. Performance is said to have been improved with the introduction of a thread scheduler and a JavaScript pre-processor, and the new directory structure has been designed to support multiple parallel development streams and to facilitate upgrading to new versions. UX improvements include expandable grids and column re-sizing and dragging.

Paul Caplin, CEO, says, "Caplin Trader is already seen as the most effective way to create a highly differentiated single-dealer portal. The major enhancements that we've announced in Caplin Trader 2.0 improve that even further. We've also made it much easier to implement, enhance and upgrade, reducing the effort required to build a compelling user experience and enabling our customers to focus on creating unique offerings that will attract and retain deal flow."
