Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to define software engineering abstractions that provide a generic framework for stock market simulations. We demonstrate a series of key points and principles that has governed the development of an Agent-Based financial market application programming interface (API). The simulator architecture is presented. During artificial market construction we have faced the whole variety of agent-based modelling issues : local interaction, distributed knowledge and resources, heterogeneous environments, agents autonomy, artificial intelligence, speech acts, discrete or continuous scheduling and simulation. Our study demonstrates that the choices made for agent-based modelling in this context deeply impact the resulting market dynamics and proposes a series of advances regarding the main limits the existing platforms actually meet.
