What it does

A complete trading platform you run by keyboard and ear — built for blind and low-vision traders, and genuinely capable. The quickest way to understand it is to try the live demo; here is the full picture.

Reading the market

Most apps stop at being screen-reader compatible — labels you can tab through. This was built to be read by ear: the chart itself becomes sound, in three layers that work together.

  • Works with your screen reader

    Speaks exact prices, values, and alerts as you move — with NVDA, JAWS, and Narrator on Windows, VoiceOver on Mac and iOS, TalkBack on Android, and Orca on Linux. It uses the voice and speed you already set.

  • Hear the chart

    A built-in audio engine turns the market into sound: pitch follows price, tone follows momentum, and the sound pans across your headphones so you always know where you are in time — while the moments that matter, like a crossover or a support level, ring out as distinct chimes above the rest. Play any part of the chart and listen to it unfold.

  • Feel it on a braille display

    Send the chart to a Dot Pad tactile display and read candles and key levels with your fingers, alongside a braille text line. (Dot Pad is the supported device.)

Charting and analysis

  • Real-time charts, all by keyboard

    Move bar by bar, jump across the chart, zoom, and pan — entirely from the keyboard, with live data streaming in.

  • All the classic indicators, plus your own

    A large library of the indicators traders rely on, all sonified — and you can build custom ones when you need something specific.

  • Drawing tools

    Trendlines, channels, Fibonacci levels, and more — placed precisely by keyboard, with the price and time spoken back as you set each point.

  • See where the volume is

    Volume profiles and heatmaps show, and sound out, the price levels where the most trading happened.

  • Any timeframe

    From one minute to one month, and you can work across several timeframes at once.

  • Beyond price

    Chart more than candles: macro and economic series, on-chain metrics, and market sentiment like fear-and-greed — read and sounded out the same way as price, so the wider context is part of the picture, not a separate tab.

Building and automating

  • Build your own setups

    Combine indicator conditions into buy and sell setups with targets, stops, and risk limits — then hear each one trigger in real time.

  • Strategy Lab

    Test a setup against years of historical data before you risk anything, and see exactly how it would have done.

  • Alerts that reach you

    Get notified the moment your conditions hit — on screen, by email, or through Telegram.

Trading and your accounts

  • Practise first, risk-free

    Turn on paper trading and learn the whole workflow against simulated money — driven by the real live price, so it behaves like the real thing. Reset it whenever you want a clean slate. No money at stake until you decide.

  • Connect your broker

    Place orders, watch the order book, and keep an eye on your positions and balance — without leaving the keyboard.

  • The markets you trade

    Crypto, stocks, forex, commodities, and futures from the major exchanges and brokers — and because data sources are a plug-in system, more can be added over time.

  • Your accounts stay yours

    Your login details are stored securely on your own device, and anything you add runs safely apart from the rest of the system.

Make it yours

  • Sound Designer

    Change what anything sounds like — pick the tones and chimes that work for your ears, and save them as your defaults.

  • Session journal

    Everything spoken, every alert, and every setup is saved, so you can replay your whole session by keyboard or export it to read later.

  • Workspaces

    Save your entire layout — indicators, drawings, and sound settings — and switch between setups instantly.

  • Runs everywhere you do

    Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS, plus a version that runs right in a web browser — the same one that powers the demo on this site.

An AI assistant, built in

  • Plain-English insights

    Ask the built-in AI assistant for a plain-English read of what the chart is doing — trend, key levels, momentum, and a short-term outlook — and have it review your recent trades and setups. It describes the chart; it never touches your account.

  • Cloud or on your device

    Use a cloud model for the richest, vision-capable read, or run one locally so your chart data never leaves your computer. The privacy trade-off is yours to make, not ours.

  • Training & video, coming soon

    Step-by-step tutorials and video walkthroughs are on the way — here on the site and on YouTube.

Open, and built to grow

Accessible Trade Terminal is open source. The data sources and indicators are a plug-in system, so if you write code you can build your own and share them — and if you don't, your feature requests and bug reports are just as valuable. See the developer guide and SDK or browse the source on GitHub (opens in new tab).

Try the whole suite, free

A free paper-trading account (opens in a new tab) gives you every feature and indicator on this page in your browser, with simulated money to learn risk-free — no install. Or open the live demo, or get the desktop app for real-money trading.
