Live data across six markets, on a chart traders already know.

A trading indicators platform needed live charting and decision-support tools across global equities, crypto, forex, and the Safex Agri commodity feed — on an interface its subscribers already knew. We built it on three normalised vendor feeds and the TradingView Charting Library, with custom indicators layered on top, and we run it under SLA today.

Case snapshot

Six markets. Three feeds. One live charting surface.

The platform spans six market categories — stocks, indices, commodities, crypto, forex, and Safex Agri — on an interface subscribers already know. Three vendor feeds are normalised into one consistent stream and delivered at sub-second latency. Subscribers chart top-traded symbols, study custom indicators, and follow market news in one place — bringing clarity to subscribers before they make any call.

Charting, indicators, multi-feed integration

The problem

Three feeds, one interface, no room for stale prices.

Vendor feeds each spoke a different format — global equities, crypto, and forex from one provider, fundamentals and commodities from another, Safex Agri from a third dedicated feed. Latency had to be low enough that prices on screen could be acted on with confidence. And the interface had to be something experienced traders would not need to relearn from a standing start.

What we built

A familiar chart, a fast pipe, and Sharp's tools on top.

A live charting and indicators platform that normalises three vendor feeds — Safex Agri, FMP, and Tiingo — into one consistent stream, delivered to connected subscribers at sub-second latency. The chart surface is built on the TradingView Charting Library, so any experienced trader sits down to a familiar interface.

Layered on top: custom indicators designed by experienced traders to bring clarity to complex markets, market depth and key levels (support, resistance, and liquidity zones), an integrated market news feed, and an admin console for managing symbols, feeds, and subscriber accounts directly in-platform.

The outcome

Sub-second live data across six market categories.

"We needed a platform our subscribers could rely on when it mattered — live prices, charts they already know, and indicators worth paying for. Sharp built it on a stack we can grow on."
