A commodities trader is halfway through a client call when gold jumps half a percent and the number on their screen is already twenty minutes old, because the rate feed they're using only refreshes on a schedule rather than in real time. That gap between what the market is doing and what the trader can see is exactly where a missed opportunity, or a wrong price quoted to a client, tends to happen.

Indices-API solves that by streaming live rates, timeseries and OHLC prices for metals, currencies and commodities, so anyone pricing a deal or watching a position is working from the current number rather than a stale one. For trading desks, brokers and finance teams, having that data arrive the moment it changes matters more than having it arrive at all.

Connected to Mobile Message through Zapier, that live pricing data can be turned into a text sent straight to a trader, client or account manager the moment a rate moves, instead of everyone having to keep a browser tab open and refresh it themselves. The market data Indices-API already tracks becomes the reason a message goes out, rather than something someone has to remember to check.
