Tokyo Commodity Exchange, Inc. launched a virtual trading environment, called TOCOM V-Trade, in which a user can virtually experience trading on the new system.
The virtual trading environment has become available by connecting the TOCOM staging environment to the systems of Members and IT Vendors. This virtual trading is initially offered by two IT Vendors, Nihon Techno System Co., Ltd and Nozomi Infotech Private Limited.
TOCOMs new trading system, based on a NASDAQ OMX package software, offers trading functionalities in line with international standards, which differ completely from what was available under the previous system, including a wider array of order types and a circuit breaker system.
