Challenge

Redesign the Dashboard and Trading Interface pages of Think Trader app to create an intuitive, visually engaging, and data-rich experience that empowers both novice and experienced traders to make confident decisions.

Dashboard / Market Watch Redesign

Observations on the Original Design :

  •  Overwhelming amount of data displayed at once (e.g., sell/buy, highs/lows, prices).

  • Top bar is crowded and lacks hierarchy.

  • Visual noise due to small text, inconsistent spacing, and redundant info. 

  • Limited sense of personalization or user control.

Improvements in the Redesign:

  • Personalised greeting ("Welcome Back!") adds user warmth and engagement.

  • Portfolio card with clear balance and net gain/loss, alongside actionable buttons (Withdraw, Deposit).

  • Simplified and visually clean market list — focuses on name, price, change, and clear trends via icons/graphs.

  • Improved bottom nav bar with recognizable, modern icons.

  • Effective use of color and whitespace to reduce cognitive load.

  • Tabs for Market / Crypto / Jobless Claims offer smoother navigation.

Trading Interface Redesign

Observations on the Original Design :

  • Cluttered top bar with poor visual hierarchy — BUY/SELL buttons are overly dominant and can overlap during interaction.

  • Red/green chart colors pose accessibility challenges for colorblind users and may cause eye strain over prolonged use.

  • Lack of segmentation between controls and information creates a flat, confusing layout.

  • Outdated visual style with minimal spacing leads to a dense, overwhelming interface.

  • Key action buttons (e.g., order placement) are hard to locate and don’t stand out clearly.

Improvements in the Redesign:

  • Modernized visual aesthetic with a dark theme that reduces eye strain and adds visual depth.

  • Streamlined top bar with clean BUY/SELL buttons and clearly defined labeling.

  • Tabs layout (Overview, Info, Alerts) introduces clear segmentation and improves navigation. Improves the user flow

  • Enhanced chart readability with better spacing and improved color contrast.

  • Consistent iconography and design language across UI elements for a cohesive experience.

  • Added data filters (e.g., 10 mins) and contextual stats (e.g., high/low) to support faster decision-making.

Summary

This analysis and redesign primarily focuses on improving usability, visual clarity, and the overall user journey within the ThinkTrader app. The proposed changes aim to create a more intuitive, accessible, and user-focused trading experience by addressing pain points in navigation, hierarchy, and interaction design.
