Re: Open ECry Wish List Thread

BF - here are some examples. The EBS screen/keyboard is used in the interbank FX market, it is a dedicated dealing system hence a the keyboard and screen are stand-alone units, working together.

The first screenshot is of the screen
The second screenshot is a zoom of two of the price panels on the screen with some explanation
The third screenshot is the keyboard

All the screenshots are from the EBS website and hence a lot of the annotations are theirs, but I have added my annotations to (theirs are the professional-looking annotations!).

The fourth screenshot (on next post) is a suggestion for the basics that would probably need to be on an OEC screen - it is similar to their current DOM trading screen, with a couple of differences, biggest being the DOM does not scroll, the best price remains fixed in the centre at all times. (This could be a starting point for suggestions to them for improvement).
