On February 24th, 1982, the Kansas City Futures Exchange took the lead in launching the value line composite index futures contract and officially started trading new stock index futures. Because stock index futures have the functions of avoiding systemic risks, activating the stock market, diversifying investment risks, hedging and so on, other countries and regions are competing to emulate Kansas City in the United States, thus forming a worldwide stock index trading boom.

Whether using stock index futures to hedge or arbitrage, it needs a lot of calculation work, involving historical and real-time market data, and it needs uninterrupted calculation. It is absolutely impossible to calculate by hand. Special computer programs must be developed for systematic calculation and judgment, so as to provide accurate basis for investors' investment operations. Therefore, the software that can assist investors to hedge and arbitrage stock index futures came into being.
