A strategic investment in MarketReader

Every price move has a story. Acuity’s platform can now tell it — with MarketReader’s market-explanation technology built into the Acuity Intelligence ecosystem.

Brokers, prop firms, and investment platforms can now give traders the context behind every market move, without traders ever leaving the platform.

Acuity MarketReader

Acuity has made a strategic investment in MarketReader, bringing one of the industry’s most advanced market-explanation technologies into the Acuity Intelligence platform. Co-founder Andrew Lane now leads MarketReader as CEO alongside its existing team — accelerating innovation while MarketReader continues to operate independently, focused on one problem: explaining why markets move.

Why MarketReader-3

Why MarketReader?

Built to answer the question every trader asks.

Every day, traders watch markets move — and ask the same thing: “Why did that happen?”

MarketReader’s technology starts with the movement itself, then identifies the most likely combination of news, macro events, and company developments driving it. The result is clear, structured explanations that help traders understand markets faster — and make more informed decisions.

Why Acuity invested?

A stronger intelligence ecosystem.

For years, Acuity has helped brokers deliver Trade Intelligence, Market Intelligence, and Event Intelligence through a single platform. MarketReader strengthens that vision by adding another layer: explaining why markets move.

Together, the two companies create a richer experience for traders — and a stronger technology offering for financial institutions.

Why it matters to brokers and prop firms

Every unanswered question is an opportunity to lose a trader. When traders don’t understand why markets move, they leave the platform to find answers — AI tools, financial news sites, social media. Every click away reduces engagement and increases the chance they don’t return.

MarketReader keeps that journey inside your own ecosystem. Integrated through Acuity, traders receive clear explanations alongside the products they already use — creating a more engaging, more valuable trading experience.

For brokers and prop firms, that means:

What this looks like

MarketReader works where your traders already work. Integrated into Acuity’s Market Companion, it becomes part of the experience your clients already know — no additional applications, no separate logins, no complicated onboarding.

Just richer market explanations, delivered directly inside your existing trading experience.

Looking ahead

Financial firms are no longer competing on spreads alone — they’re competing on experience. The firms that keep traders informed, engaged, and confident will build stronger relationships and better long-term retention. Together, Acuity and MarketReader are building technology that helps make that possible.

FAQs

Here are some of our most frequently asked questions.

Does this change my existing Acuity products?

No. Your existing products continue to operate as they do today. MarketReader strengthens the Acuity Intelligence ecosystem and will be integrated where it creates additional value.

What does MarketReader actually do?

A news feed shows traders headlines. Market Companion starts with market movement and works backwards to explain why it happened. That means traders see relevant, price-led explanations instead of scrolling through articles to find the answer themselves.

Why is this important for brokers?

Helping traders understand markets keeps them engaged inside your platform, improves the overall trading experience and creates additional opportunities for retention.

Can I use MarketReader as a standalone product?

Yes. MarketReader continues to operate independently while also becoming part of the wider Acuity Intelligence ecosystem.
