Project description

FX Cobra is a strategic, cloud-native FX Order Management System designed to modernize electronic FX trading and replace legacy order-management functionality. The platform manages the end-to-end lifecycle of resting orders, including call, limit, take-profit, stop-loss, and barrier orders. It provides scalable order processing, client and system integration through APIs, real-time operational visibility, and greater workflow automation using event-driven microservices, Kafka, CQRS, Kubernetes, and automated CI/CD.
