Question 1

What is Novaex Pulse?

Accepted Answer

Novaex Pulse is an AI pricing-intelligence engine for base metals. It aggregates real-time LME and MCX prices, validates them with anomaly detection, builds commodity-specific forward curves, and turns spreads, basis and confidence-scored signals into decisions your desk can act on. Pulse is the pricing-intelligence half of the Novaex platform; Novaex Ledger is the position-management half.

Question 2

Why do standard pricing feeds fail for commodity trading?

Accepted Answer

Most commodity professionals pull pricing from multiple sources, each with its own lags, formats, and potential for error. Generic feeds lack the specificity needed for complex physical contracts and hedging instruments, leading to inaccurate pricing decisions.

Question 3

What is the latency of Novaex pricing feeds?

Accepted Answer

Novaex delivers commodity pricing with sub-second latency, 99% uptime, and 24/7 coverage across LME and MCX. For COMEX and SHFE, Novaex ingests live data from both exchanges as inputs to our AI engine. Customers don't see COMEX or SHFE data directly, but the intelligence Novaex generates is enriched by these real-time feeds behind the scenes.

Question 4

How does AI improve commodity pricing accuracy?

Accepted Answer

Novaex uses AI-powered sanity checks to detect anomalies and outliers in real-time price feeds, builds commodity-specific forward curves with nuanced models, and aggregates data from multiple sources to provide a single trusted price view.

Question 5

What exchanges does the Pricing Engine connect to?

Accepted Answer

The Intelligent Pricing Engine provides direct connectivity to LME and MCX, with automatic currency conversion. For COMEX and SHFE, Novaex ingests live data from both exchanges as inputs to our AI engine. We don't provide COMEX or SHFE dashboards or raw feeds, but the intelligence you see on Novaex is enriched by real-time data from these exchanges behind the scenes.
