The 139th Canton Fair concluded on May 5, setting a new record for overseas buyer attendance. Data from the China Foreign Trade Centre show that across 15 days and three phases, the fair welcomed a record 314,000 overseas buyers from 220 countries and regions who came to explore opportunities at “China’s No. 1 Fair.”

Inside the Canton Fair venue, the “PHYBOT C2” bipedal humanoid robot, capable of playing badminton, handles challenges from buyers with ease.

The event covered about 1.55 million square meters with 75,700 booths. More than 32,000 exhibitors participated, including about 3,900 first-time exhibitors. Over 4.65 million products were on display; new products, green products, and products with independent intellectual property rights accounted for 23%, 22%, and 25%, respectively — reflecting the “new, green and smart” direction of “Made in China” and “Made in Guangdong.”

During the fair, organizers held more than 600 new-product launch events. The number of new products introduced rose 27%, and events for emerging future industries increased 30%. The fair also showcased AI-enabled scenarios for the first time, including robotic patrol inspections and drone flight demonstrations.

Nine specialized exhibition zones were newly established for this session. Phase I featured zones for consumer drones, agricultural drones, smart wearables and display technology. Phase II debuted zones for bamboo and wood household products and tableware, integrated housing and outdoor facilities, and trendy accessories. Phase III added a zone for functional and technical fabrics. Nearly 670 enterprises took part in these specialized zones, erecting more than 1,300 booths and highlighting innovative developments across industries.

Guangdong province got off to a strong start in foreign trade this year. In the first quarter, its import and export volume, national share, incremental growth and contribution rate all ranked first in China. Exports reached 1.53 trillion yuan, up 14.3%, while imports reached 1.01 trillion yuan, up 27.8%. Import growth was broad-based, led by the “old three” — mobile phones, computers and home appliances — as well as garments and luggage. At the same time, the province advanced its “new three” products: exports of 3D printers, drones and digital cameras rose 136.9%, 51.2% and 60.2%, respectively. These products of new quality productive forces have received popularity worldwide. Exports of self-owned brands grew 38%, raising their share of Guangdong’s total export value in the first quarter to 26.6%.

As a vital window into China’s opening-up and a barometer of its foreign trade, the Canton Fair has evolved alongside the Chinese economy over its 70-year history. This session’s successful conclusion complemented Guangdong’s robust start in foreign trade. Many Guangdong enterprises used the Canton Fair platform to engage directly with global buyers and secure international orders, helping Guangdong maintain its top national ranking in foreign trade scale. In turn, Guangdong’s thriving development continuously injects vitality into the Canton Fair. The major foreign trade province’s strong industrial base, comprehensive supply chain and innovative products and technologies continue to sustain the fair’s global influence.

CGTN published an article examining how China’s young generation is turning emerging industries and new professions into fresh drivers of growth. From drone swarm flight planners and robot engineers to rural live-stream entrepreneurs, the article highlights how innovation, industrial upgrading and stronger policy support are opening broader development opportunities for young people as they inject their youthful dynamism into Chinese modernization.

At a recent concert in Nanning, 1,000 drones rose into the night sky, forming iconic symbols of south China’s Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

While the audience sees romance and spectacle, 22-year-old Yang Dan sees code, timing and precision. She writes flight scripts, plans routes and even decides exactly where each drone should be placed before takeoff. Her team has completed more than 150 drone performances so far.

Last year, Yang’s profession, drone swarm flight planner, was included in the newly recognized professions. Since China rolled out its new occupational classification system in 2019, seven batches have been unveiled, bringing 110 new occupations in total. This gives young people like Yang a clearer career path in emerging industries.

Youth shining in emerging industries

Across China, more young people like Yang are building careers in new sectors and helping drive industrial upgrading.

In Chengdu, southwest China’s Sichuan Province, a research team with an average age of under 30 has developed a second-generation wheeled humanoid robot.

The robot can perform Wing Chun movements, complete precise industrial tasks, and even take part in robot manufacturing.

The team works with clear division of roles. Pang Kai, 32, leads the lab and focuses on solving real industrial challenges. Li Lanxin, an algorithm engineer born in 1999, develops motion control systems to ensure safe human-machine interaction. Ding Yuxuan, a young researcher born after 2000, works on visual-language-action models, giving robots stronger perception and decision-making abilities.

Founded only two years ago, the team has already achieved key breakthroughs. For them, robots are not display pieces, but practical tools for factories, homes and businesses – designed to reduce repetitive labor and improve efficiency.

Far from industrial parks, youth innovation is also changing rural China.

In Hainan, Jiang Bizhen, a post-1985 generation agricultural live-stream host, has spent the past decade helping farmers sell local products online.

Her team has helped more than 3,000 farming households and created over 300 local jobs, allowing villagers to earn stable incomes close to home.

Thanks to the opportunities created by the Hainan Free Trade Port, local products now reach customers in Russia, Thailand and United Arab Emirates. Tropical fruits, coffee and specialty foods from the island are finding global markets.

Policy support behind youth growth

Behind these personal stories is a broader national effort to support youth development and employment.

Ahead of this year’s China’s Youth Day on May 4, President Xi Jinping encouraged young Chinese to integrate their personal aspirations into the bigger picture of national development, in a reply letter to the representatives of the awardees of the China Youth May Fourth Medal and New Era Youth Pioneer.

Stressing that 2026 marks the opening year of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), Xi said the present time presents a prime opportunity for young people to contribute to the country’s development.

In March, authorities introduced a package of measures to boost employment for college graduates and young workers, encouraging job creation in advanced manufacturing, modern services, and technology-driven industries.

The country is also providing lower-cost startup spaces, stronger support for young entrepreneurs, and more training for modern agriculture and new professions.

In April, 15 government departments jointly introduced 18 measures, designed to improve urban environments for young people. The measures seek to transform cities into hubs where young people can pursue high-quality development, enjoy better living standards, and actively participate in governance.

Against this backdrop, President Xi urged young Chinese to stay rooted in their posts, strive for new achievements and inject their youthful dynamism into advancing the nation’s new journey of development.

United Arab Emirates, May 5, 2026 — On March 30, 2026, Translux Limited successfully completed the placement of its debut $20 million bond issue with a 14% annual coupon, denominated in US dollars. Translux Limited is the oldest oil trading company in DIFC.

Translux Limited has been operating for more than 20 years and specializes in marine fuel bunkering at sea. The company purchases fuel in bulk from leading international suppliers, including BP and Vitol, and delivers it directly to vessels offshore. Over the years, Translux has served thousands of vessels and built long-term relationships with major global container shipping companies, including MSC, Maersk, and CMA CGM. The company generates approximately $120 million in annual turnover and around $7.5 million in net profit, with gross margins reaching approximately 50%. The company has had no defaults throughout its operating history.

The Translux bond issuance was structured by Velar Capitals, an international investment platform specializing in IPO, pre-IPO, and debt capital markets. Velar Capitals develops a long-term support model for companies on their path to the public capital markets, from structuring debt and establishing a transparent financial track record to preparing the equity journey, developing institutional demand, and ultimately supporting an IPO. Velar Capitals sees Kazakhstan as one of the key markets in Central Asia and views AIX as an international platform through which local investors gain access to global issuers.

The current Translux bond issue is not just a placement but part of a broader strategy. The company views public debt as a step toward an IPO in the coming years and as a tool for building a transparent track record in the capital markets. At the same time, Translux plans to issue a subsequent bond at a lower rate, further enhancing the attractiveness of the current issue.

Strong investor interest is driven not only by the terms of the issuance but also by the underlying business. The global bunkering market exceeds $150 billion annually. As global shipping routes shift, traffic is increasingly moving through the Atlantic along the west coast of Africa. This is driving demand for marine fuel supply in the region where Translux already operates. Dakar is emerging as a key hub. On the route between Lomé and Las Palmas, spanning approximately 2,000 nautical miles, it is the only location combining a deep-water port, developed infrastructure, and a stable jurisdiction. Translux holds an exclusive license in this corridor until 2032, effectively securing a key position on this route. The bunkering market in Dakar is growing at approximately 13% per year.

Another important signal for the market is that major international players are already increasing their presence in the region. Leading global companies, including Monjasa, Vitol, Peninsula, and Flex Commodities, are shifting their volumes toward West Africa. For investors, this means the company operates not in a hypothetical growth area but in a segment where the world’s largest industry players are already active.

Following the successful placement, Translux and Velar Capitals are also considering expanding their presence in Kazakhstan. This includes deeper engagement with the market, expansion of the investor base, and the potential opening of a joint office, reinforcing a long-term focus on the region.

The Translux placement on AIX represents a market deal, an infrastructure case, and a strong signal for investors. The oldest oil trading company in DIFC entered the capital markets at a time when global logistics is shifting in its favor, and demand for its services is growing alongside the rerouting of global shipping flows around Africa. Against this backdrop, the current issuance has already become a notable entry point into the company’s story, which, according to its plans, will continue moving toward an IPO in the coming years.

AOULINK, a flagship decentralized finance ecosystem that has undergone thorough auditing and strategic alignment by the global AICG governance hub, Interstellar Alliance, officially launched globally on May 5, 2026 at 19:00 (UTC+8) / 11:00 (GMT).

As a decentralized infrastructure that deeply integrates “high-performance transactional infrastructure” and “full-scenario financial modules”, the launch of AOULINK marks the official departure of on-chain interaction from inefficient and fragmented discrete protocol games, and the entry into a “standardized growth” stage protected by institutional-level audit standards.

The Project Evaluation Center (PEC) of the Interstellar Alliance utilized the FERGS penetrating audit framework to conduct a multi-dimensional assessment of AOULINK’s underlying logic and business efficiency. The audit results show that AOULINK possesses significant generational advantages in asset certainty and growth logic:

Algorithm-driven sustainability: an endogenous reward mechanism that rejects short-term stimulus (Fundamentals)

AOULINK has fundamentally restructured the revenue order of traditional platforms. Based on the FERGS sustainability audit criteria, AOULINK enforces a 90/10 profit distribution agreement: 90% of the core value generated by the system, such as transaction fees, funding rates, and liquidation proceeds, is directly returned to liquidity providers (LPs) through immutable smart contracts. This “endogenous profitability” logic ensures that the ecosystem does not rely on short-term market subsidies or single-ecosystem growth, possessing extremely strong cross-cycle operation capabilities and long-term stability.

Full-scenario integrated execution capabilities: Deterministic delivery based on real-world application paths (Execution)

Unlike the common protocol patchwork model in the market, the AOULINK team has demonstrated a strong certainty of commercialization. The ecosystem comprises modules covering all scenarios, including perpetual contracts, lending systems, hedging and quantitative strategies, and a community ecosystem. This deep integration of “foundation + self-operated applications” significantly reduces the losses from cross-protocol interactions, proving the team’s closed-loop delivery capability from top-level design to end-user execution, and a clear value-driven path.

Physical-level access control for fund security: Risk isolation and self-control system (Risk)

Security is the fundamental red line of AOULINK’s asset architecture. The ecosystem’s built-in risk hedging quantitative engine captures external market arbitrage opportunities in real time, smooths internal position imbalances, and establishes the asset’s hedging capabilities in extreme market environments. Simultaneously, AOULINK adheres to the physical logic of “private key self-holding,” ensuring clear and transparent fund flows with physical-level access control mechanisms. This fundamentally eliminates the credit default risks of traditional centralized custody, ensuring assets are securely controlled within the rules.

The scalability of mechanisms under global collaboration: a growth model that can be replicated across regions

As a flagship project in the Web3 finance sector selected by the Interstellar Alliance, AOULINK has secured strategic collaboration with top 100 core teams globally. Through standardized, industrialized execution pathways, AOULINK’s consensus mechanism and business logic can be efficiently transmitted across four continents: Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. This mechanism does not rely on local resources but achieves exponential scaling across groups and regions through standardized operating procedures (SOPs), establishing extremely strong value potential.

Market absorption capacity of high-performance bases: supporting the steady-state (scale) of systems with large-scale, high-frequency interactions

Addressing the latency issues commonly found in on-chain finance, AOULINK has achieved millisecond-level response times by reconstructing the physical execution layer. This high-performance transactional public chain foundation ensures that the system maintains stable revenue distribution and conversion efficiency even when facing large-scale user onboarding and extremely high concurrency interactions. Audits have verified that AOULINK has the throughput capacity to support diverse global markets, ensuring that the overall ecosystem operates smoothly and without instability during large-scale expansion.

About the Interstellar Alliance

Interstellar Alliance is the world’s first value collaboration system driven by AICG (Intelligent Co-governance). By codifying governance logic and digitizing decision-making processes, the Alliance connects with top-tier global strategic capital firms (such as Standard Crypto, ParaFi Capital, and DCG), aiming to reshape the business order in the digital age. Leveraging six functional centers and a global team of 100 executives, the Alliance seeks to eliminate the efficiency losses caused by discrete game theory, providing global value seekers with project selection, risk control, and growth pathways.

About AOULINK

AOULINK is a decentralized finance ecosystem built on a high-performance transactional public blockchain, integrating perpetual contracts, lending, hedging quantitative strategies, and a community ecosystem. It aims to construct a transparent, secure, and sustainable decentralized value ecosystem network through technological innovation and mechanism restructuring.

New York, NY – 04/05/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – TaxiNexo, an AI-powered mobility company, recently announced that it began its global strategy years ago, aiming to bring autonomous taxis to major cities worldwide.

Limassol, Cyprus – 04/05/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Vaiz, a Cyprus-based work management platform, is growing its user base with a product principle most competitors ignore: zero employee surveillance. The platform has no keystroke logging, no screenshot capture, no mouse tracking, and no automatic activity monitoring. It is a deliberate product decision, not a missing feature.

Vaiz combines tasks, documents, and team collaboration in one workspace — without any form of employee activity tracking.

The announcement comes as workplace monitoring faces renewed criticism. In April 2026, a major technology company began installing software on employee computers to record keystrokes, mouse movements, and screen activity to train AI models. The decision triggered immediate employee backlash and public debate about the limits of employer surveillance. A growing number of teams are now looking for tools that help them coordinate work without tracking how people spend every minute.

Why no-surveillance work management matters now

Employee monitoring software has grown from a niche practice to a global norm. Adoption rose from 30 percent before the pandemic to 60 percent by 2022. In 2026, the EU AI Act classifies workplace AI monitoring as high-risk and restricts practices such as emotion recognition in employment, with penalties up to 35 million euros or 7 percent of global revenue.

Research shows that 31 percent of monitored employees feel micromanaged, and 23 percent report a sense of constant surveillance. For small and mid-sized teams that depend on trust and speed, surveillance tools often cause more harm than the problems they claim to solve. Vaiz was designed for these teams. The platform does not include any automatic activity tracking, screen recording, or behavioural monitoring.

What Vaiz offers instead of surveillance

Vaiz is a unified work management platform that brings tasks, documents, files, and team discussions into a single workspace. Rather than tracking employee behaviour, the platform makes work visible through structure: task boards, project timelines, milestones, and shared documents that give everyone context without oversight software.

The platform connects to over 2,000 applications through Zapier and offers native integrations with Slack, GitHub, and GitLab. Embedded tools include Figma, Miro, YouTube, Vimeo, Swagger, and GraphQL editors. A built-in AI assistant turns goals into task breakdowns, generates project plans, summarises discussions into action items, and improves document clarity. A native MCP server connects Vaiz to AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, and three public SDKs let developers extend the platform. The full list is available on the integrations page.

Vaiz co-founder Konstantin Cherkasov explained the company’s position: “We build tools that help teams coordinate their work, not tools that watch people. If a platform needs to capture your screen to know whether you are productive, the problem is not the employee — it is the platform.”

Switching and pricing

Vaiz’s Migration Center supports one-click imports from Jira, Asana, Trello, YouTrack, Notion, Linear, Monday, ClickUp, and Wrike. Pricing starts with a forever free plan for up to 10 users, no credit card required. The Pro plan costs five US dollars per user per month, and the Premium plan costs nine US dollars per user per month. An Enterprise edition with on-premises deployment is available for organisations with data residency requirements. A 30-day free trial covers all paid plans, and startups qualify for a 50 percent discount.

Development pace

Vaiz today releases version 2.84, which introduces calendar integration. Since September 2025, this is the tenth numbered release. The team has recently moved to a two-week release cycle, accelerating from the previous pace of roughly one major update every three weeks. Earlier releases in 2026 delivered an improved UI, Slack integration, Cursor IDE support, and an iOS app with full desktop parity. The public product roadmap is available on the website.

The company’s focus is building a connected workspace where teams can plan, execute, and communicate in one place — without tools that treat employees as subjects of observation. More information is available at vaiz.com.

About Vaiz

Vaiz Ltd was founded in 2024 and is headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus. The company operates a cloud-based work management platform that combines task boards, documents, and automation in one workspace. Vaiz is used by cross-functional teams at startups, product companies, game studios, agencies, and growing businesses.

Retail Divide

 

Peter Larsen, a veteran quantitative trader with over three decades of experience on Wall Street, has emerged from retirement to launch Quantum Scalp, a new financial technology firm aimed at democratizing access to institutional-grade algorithmic trading. 

The company announced today that it has secured $100 million in private capital to build a systematic trading platform designed to provide retail investors with tools previously exclusive to investment banks and hedge funds. The funding round included participation from family offices, former industry colleagues, and a sovereign wealth fund.

 

A Career Built on Market Microstructure 

Larsen’s career parallels the evolution of modern electronic trading. He began at Bear Stearns in 1993 as a junior market analyst, joining during the early shift from floor trading to screen-based execution. Throughout the 1990s, Larsen developed statistical models for fixed-income desks, working within the cohort of quantitative analysts who fundamentally rewired the industry’s approach to risk and execution.

In 2001, Larsen moved to Lehman Brothers as a consultant within the firm’s Quantitative Proprietary Trading division. During his tenure, he served as a lead analyst on the Penn-Lehman Automated Trading Project (PLAT). The initiative, a collaboration between Lehman Brothers and the University of Pennsylvania, developed one of the earliest realistic simulators for testing automated trading strategies. PLAT remains a cited reference in academic and industry circles regarding market microstructure and algorithmic execution. 

Larsen retired in 2006, prior to the financial crisis of 2008. For the next fifteen years, he remained active in an advisory capacity, monitoring the widening disparity between institutional and retail trading capabilities. 

Addressing the Intelligence Gap

 

According to Larsen, the post-2010 retail trading revolution reduced costs through commission-free trading and fractional shares but failed to close the “intelligence gap.” 

“Cheap access without an edge isn’t democratization,” Larsen said in an interview at Wyoming. “It often results in capital flowing more efficiently toward institutions that possess superior data and execution tools. Our objective is parity.” 

The catalyst for Larsen’s return to the market was the advancement of artificial intelligence and optimization technologies between 2022 and 2024. Larsen posits that modern transformer-based forecasting and hybrid systems now allow for the compression of capabilities that previously required large quantitative teams. 

Technology and Compliance

 Despite the company name, Quantum Scalp does not utilize quantum computing hardware. Larsen was explicit in clarifying the technology stack to avoid investor confusion. 

“The system is quantum-inspired,” Larsen stated. “We utilize optimization algorithms derived from quantum mechanics, such as simulated annealing variants and tensor-network methods, running on classical GPU infrastructure. Combined with AI-driven signal processing, this allows for portfolio construction and signal weighting at a latency and scale that was not feasible five years ago.”

 The platform operates on three distinct layers:

1.  Signal Layer: Ingests market data, alternative data, and macroeconomic indicators to generate short-horizon forecasts.

2.  Optimization Layer: Applies quantum-inspired algorithms to weight signals and construct positions under risk constraints.

3.  Execution Layer: Manages order routing and slippage, leveraging methodologies originally developed during the PLAT project. 

Industry Skepticism and Regulatory Landscape The launch comes amidst heightened scrutiny of AI-driven retail trading platforms. Regulators in the United States and Europe have increased oversight regarding algorithmic advice given to non-institutional investors. Critics note that previous attempts to democratize quantitative tools, such as early robo-advisors and AI trading startups, have often struggled to match backtested performance in live markets.

Larsen acknowledges the risks inherent in the sector. “We are not selling a guaranteed return,” he said. “Anyone claiming to sell a ‘money printer’ is misrepresenting the product. We are providing the same class of tools, analysis quality, and execution discipline utilized by major desks. How that utility is employed remains the responsibility of the investor.”

 

A Second Act 

At 75, Larsen represents a rare profile in the fintech sector, which is typically dominated by younger founders. Colleagues describe the venture as consistent with his long-standing focus on market structure integrity.

 The firm plans to begin rolling out access to the platform later this year, subject to regulatory compliance and final testing phases. For Larsen, the venture is a corrective measure to a career spent building advantages for the institutional side of the market.

 “I worked for the house for thirty years,” Larsen said. “I intend to provide the players with a system that levels the field.”

Moscow, Russia – 01/05/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – The 2nd Open Dialogue “The Future of the World: A New Platform for Global Growth” took place in Russia, bringing together experts and young researchers from more than 40 countries who proposed ideas on the development of the economy, technology, education, and the environment. The key unifying principle of the event was a focus on people, international cooperation, and the search for new models of global growth through dialogue and the practical implementation of ideas. The large-scale three-day program at the Russia National Centre has concluded, combining expert discussions, presentations by authors of the best essays from around the world, and informal communication with experts.

According to the official remarks, the Open Dialogue has achieved a global footprint that covers the entire planet.

“Experts, business leaders, and researchers from 120 countries took part in the essay and creative works competition, including representatives from Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Australia, North and South America. All authors and researchers, with diverse experiences and perspectives, were united by a strong and bold idea: to form a shared understanding of the future — the future of a world entering an era of profound structural change. It is evident that no country can develop in isolation, at the expense of other states or to their detriment. Furthermore, modern global challenges require a joint response and collective efforts. This means that the model of global development will be sustainable and fair only if it is based on the principles of equality and mutual respect, and takes into account the interests of all countries,” the honorary guest of the event stated.

According to the Russian leader, a multipolar architecture of global development is being formed before our eyes. Within it, an important role is played by states that understand and value national sovereignty.

The results of the large-scale event were summarized by Russian economist Maxim Oreshkin: “Russia, in a number of areas, is an advanced country in terms of the development of digital platform solutions. Our approach is one of joint development. When Russian digital platforms enter other countries’ markets, they bring data localization, local partner involvement, training for local personnel, and the development of their own competencies in platform solution development. Russia comes to develop together, not to collect colonial rent from countries that lack access to technological solutions. We are in favor of developing together.”

Maxim Oreshkin noted that the reach of the Open Dialogue will continue to grow each year. According to him, significant attention is being paid to the stage of implementing the ideas proposed in the essays. A mentorship format has been introduced — Russian businesses and international companies are beginning to work with essayists, involve them in their projects, and help bring their ideas to life.

At the 2nd Open Dialogue, the best essay authors were identified in four areas: “Investing in People,” “Investing in Connectivity,” “Investing in Technology,” and “Investing in the Environment.”

The winner in the “Investing in Technology” track was Aya Arfaoui, a student of Mohammed V University in Rabat, Morocco. She raised the issue of the digital sovereignty of developing countries. According to her, international institutions do not provide sufficient influence in regulating the digital space.

Solomon Gardie, a postgraduate student at Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia, became the winner in the “Investing in Connectivity” track. His essay focused on connectivity and the mobility of sovereign data. He proposed a system in which data is processed and anonymized before cross-border transfer, and only in this form can it be used for the common good. He also noted that, within cooperation in the BRICS+ framework, one of the first areas could be healthcare, particularly epidemiological monitoring and disease control.

In the “Investing in the Environment” track, the winner was Soumya Bhowmick, a research fellow at the Observer Research Foundation (India). In his presentation, he stated that for almost 100 years, the world has focused on measuring GDP, which does not reflect a country’s real wealth.

The winner of the “Investing in People” track was Lubinda Haabazoka from Zambia. In his speech, he noted that for real convergence among countries of the Global South, not only declarations of multipolarity are needed, but also practical changes in key systems of interaction — primarily in education, which directly affects opportunities for cooperation and knowledge exchange.

The future should be built around the individual, their health, agency, and a long, meaningful life, rather than around technologies and outdated systems, believes Dr. Selina Neri, co-founder, CEO, and dean of Future Readiness Academy (UAE), and an expert of the 2nd Open Dialogue in the “Investing in People” track. According to her, this requires new approaches to education, work, and technology development that focus on human flourishing, sovereignty, and the practical implementation of ideas rather than copying ineffective models.

More than 1,600 authors from all continents submitted their works to participate in the 2nd Open Dialogue. Seventy-five essay authors hold academic degrees. The conclusions drawn from the discussions will be reviewed at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum and will be reflected in its business program. Essayists and experts will also be engaged in activities within the BRICS platform and involved in preparations for the Russia–Africa Summit.

Mahe, Seychelles – 30/04/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Excent Capital, the global multi-asset trading platform that builds and owns its technology, announces a major update to its platform. The release introduces a redesigned chart, new tools, drawing instruments, on-chart position management, and improved MAM capabilities.

Built Different, Delivered Faster

In an industry where most brokers rely on white-label solutions and third-party platforms, Excent Capital has taken a different path. The company develops its platform internally, maintaining direct control over performance, execution quality, and product evolution.

That structure allows the team to move faster, releasing features frequently, responding directly to partner feedback, and refining the trading experience. This update reflects that approach in practice.

A Smarter, More Capable Chart

The redesigned layout introduces a new side toolbar with streamlined access to Fibonacci tools, drawing instruments, and zoom controls. Navigation has also been refined, with gestures such as pinch-to-zoom, drag movement, and vertical swipe to adjust candle height, allowing traders to move through price action with greater precision.

New drawing tools have been integrated directly into the chart, including circles for marking key zones, trend lines across price action, text labels, and a date/price range tool that measures movement across both time and price. A five-wave pattern tool has also been added, enabling traders to map Elliott Wave structures more efficiently.

The Fibonacci retracement tool has been updated with improved precision and expanded visual customisation across both desktop and mobile.

Positions Managed Directly on the Chart

Open positions are now displayed directly on the chart at their entry price, with profit and loss, lot size, and spread cost visible in real time.

From the same view, traders can set Take Profit and Stop Loss levels or close positions without navigating away. The result is a more integrated workflow, where analysis and execution coexist within a single interface.

A Consolidated Mobile Portfolio View

Mobile users now have access to a unified Portfolio view, bringing positions and orders into a single dedicated space.

Orders are organised by status, with count indicators and collapsible groupings, while the full account history remains easily accessible. The update aligns the mobile experience more closely with the desktop environment, reducing friction between devices.

Expanded MAM Capabilities

Excent Capital’s MAM Account is designed for synchronised execution across all linked Echo accounts.

With this update, users gain access to a full position breakdown for each master trade, including detailed metrics, linked sub-positions, and direct actions such as closing or hedging from a single panel.

Echo Finance has also been integrated into a dedicated Dashboard section, where users can monitor aggregated transactions, review linked positions, and access detailed information for each connected account.
