A [x]cube LABS Case Study
Chicago-based stock trading firm tradeMONSTER engaged [x]cube LABS to create a long-term, cross-platform mobile solution. The brief was to use HTML5 while delivering native-like performance and UX across iOS and Android, handle continuous high-volume market-data streams, support a wide range of devices, and preserve full trading functionality on small screens.
[x]cube developed an award-winning hybrid HTML5‑native app with custom native wrappers, a robust data-parsing framework, POCs and proprietary device-identification methods, and SME-driven UI/UX designs optimized for mobile. The result: 45% month-on-month growth in logins, an 86% increase in revenues, and the app was named “Best Mobile App” by Barron’s with a 4.9/5 rating.
