Live market data: implementation roadmap

Fexora is preparing a market-data layer that can support global and African instruments. A reliable launch requires a licensed provider, exchange entitlements, API credentials and a compatible integration environment. Live market data will only be displayed after a licensed provider, exchange permissions and a verified feed have been connected and tested.

  1. Select global and African data vendors and confirm redistribution/display rights.
  2. Map each instrument to its correct exchange symbol, share class and quote currency.
  3. Display provider name, timestamp, time zone and whether the quote is real-time or delayed.
  4. Add company detail pages, searchable instruments, historical charts and market movers.
  5. Test refresh reliability, stale-data warnings, mobile display, caching and source attribution before public launch.

Our data standard: Fexora will not invent prices, label delayed data as real-time or present an outdated quote as current. Market information will carry its source and observation time.
