VTBook is a perfect match for Hewlett Packard's long history of innovation. HP notebooks already offer a great platform for trading and financial applications, VTBook gives to those already powerful mobile trading stations even more power and flexibility.
This is why HP is now offering complete mobile trading solutions featuring VTBook (download PDF brochure).

The IBM Financial Services Sector, in alignment with the Personal Computing Division (PCD) presented the Trader-Laptop based on VTBook at CeBIT 2005. It provides at the same time up to a total of six screens with different contents.

IBM was showing on the Trader-Laptop, in cooperation with TeleTrader partner, an application for real time market data: TeleTrader Professional.

VTBook reference customers, in Finance and Trading markets, include:
- Shell Trading
- Franklin Templeton
- Cinergy

6 screens workstation

The six-displays mobile trading station installed in FrankFurt by the IBM Financial Services Sector. This configuration features both VTBook DualDisplay and VTBook Overdrive

 

They need to use custom applications with custom hardware setups, that have been usually been relegated in trading rooms.

What about running those custom applications from a notebook and, at the end of the day, bring that notebook with you (and maybe to another trading station)?

But a notebook can have just one external display and professional tools need three or better four displays: it seems like a trading station on the move is impossible.

Not quite true: thanks to VTBook you can connect up to 5 (five!) external displays to your notebook and have as much space as you need for your particular application.

You can connect up to two VTBooks on supported notebooks thanks to VTBook Overdrive and up to two displays to each VTBook thanks to VTBook DualDisplay.

Thanks to our customized drivers all the displays work seaminglessly together with the operating system: you'll get a huge extended desktop, as you would with a multidisplay fixed workstation.

 

Traders using VTBook

Harry Newton is an authoritative voice in the trading world. And he is an extraordinary story teller: this is how he describes VTBook on his online column, In Search of the Perfect Investment.

My laptop drives its internal screen and one external screen. My Village Tronic VTBook PC card and its dualdisplay cable powers the other two screens. I drag windows from one screen to the other. I have Outlook email on one screen, a browser on another, streaming quotes on another, Macromedia on a fourth. I can also have an gigantic Excel spreadsheet spread across three monitors. The VTBook PC Card and cable cost under $300. If you use a laptop as your primary PC, it's the best computer investment you can ever make. Honestly.

Mr. Newton is using two VTBook+VTBook DualDisplay setups in two different locations, with three external displays in each location. He can carry his notebook between the two locations, keeping his data and the ability to use a powerful multi display workstation.

We could say that the Perfect Trader is our Perfect Customer!

 

Large accounts

Professional traders need professional tools to perform at best.

This is why, in all the world, trading stations are routinely updated with more recent technologies and solutions.

Trading room

Trading rooms like the one above can accommodate hundreds of trading stations, with each station being a multi display high end workstation.

VTBook makes possible to finally make those trading station mobile. Every workstation can be built around a notebook computer without losing its multi display capabilities.

Village Tronic, with its partners, supplies complete mobile trading solutions for every possible kind of financial or trading application.
