ActTrader was building trading infrastructure before the industry had a name for it. One proprietary engine, launched as a Java applet in 2000, refined every year since, and never replaced. This page is the record.

The record · 2000 - 2026

Twenty-six years. One unbroken line.

The spine on the left is the company. Every entry below hangs off the same engine, launched in 2000 and never re-platformed. Scroll, and the pulse travels through time with you.

A Java applet, and a bet on open markets.

Capital markets technology still belonged to banks. ActTrader launched a Java-based trading application that put institutional-grade execution in a browser, and put global markets within reach of independent firms for the first time.

The STP engine that still runs today.

Straight-through processing for ultra-fast execution. The core that fills orders on the platform in 2026 traces directly to this engine. Everything since, every product, every asset class, has been built on top of it, not instead of it.

2026Now · AI native

Charts, AI, and a language of its own.

ActCharts ships, built in-house. An AI assistant runs across desktop, web, and mobile, answering questions from the live ledger in plain English. And strategy builders write in ActFX, the platform's own language, or describe an idea and let ActAI write the code. Twenty-six years in, the engine learns to talk.
