Stachanov Development Competencies Related to Financial Markets
The development work of Stachanov related to financial markets can be divided in two focus areas:
1. Financial data display, and
2. Trading activities.

Trading area
As early as 2001, Stachanov has developed a three tiers trading enabled Web site as a subcontractor for an Italian bank. The product displays market prices and order status in real-time. It allows the end-user to trade stocks, bonds, and futures. The system uses the SOAP protocol to communicate with the bank's order processing system.

Stachanov has developed a fixed income trading product that is based on the FIX protocol. The product allows the trader to not just act as a trader, but also as a market maker and liquidity provider. The product processes market data, receives internal theoretical prices, and automatically updates the market quotes.

Stachanov has also developed a FIX 4.4 based internal communication protocol that allows for switching from a data display oriented internal protocol to a trading oriented protocol.
