Updated this week

EXANTE has launched a redesigned platform to enhance the trading experience. This guide helps clients transition smoothly from the previous design by outlining the key updates and new features.

Why we redesigned our platform

The new desktop trading platform interface reflects EXANTE’s commitment to continuous improvement. The redesign enhances usability, improves navigation, and incorporates client feedback to deliver a more intuitive trading experience.

What to expect

  • A modern, streamlined interface with intuitive navigation

  • Faster performance for an improved trading experience

  • Enhanced interactivity with hover effects and dynamic feedback

  • Advanced validation features to identify potential issues before they disrupt trading

  • Greater flexibility, allowing users to customise the platform to their preferences

  • Increased transparency with richer information on instruments

  • A consistent user experience across all platform modules
