News, rates, prices — in one place. Built for importers, refiners, and bank desks in every palm market who can't justify Bloomberg's $27,660/yr but can't afford to miss a tick either.
Rasad was built for one trade: palm oil — nothing else. Palm desks run on scattered Bursa screens, delayed headlines, WhatsApp forwards, and fragile spreadsheets.
The trade runs on group chats, recycled spreadsheets, and numbers that arrive after the market has already moved. Everyone pretends this is normal. It isn't.
The goal is simple: give importers, refiners, brokers, and finance desks in every palm market a focused terminal that shows the market clearly — without Bloomberg-level cost or irrelevant clutter.
What makes it Rasad and not just another screen: it turns the Malaysian price into your real landed cost — Pakistan is live today (rupees per maund at Port Qasim) and India's market is live on the terminal too; China and more are rolling out — and pairs the chart with a plain-English analyst read on what the move means for your buying.
Start with a 14-day free trial — the whole Starter desk, free for two weeks, no card required. After that Rasad is billed yearly: Starter $300/year ($25/mo equivalent) gives you the live palm market — Markets, Monitor, Combo and the full Dow Jones headlines. Medium $480/year ($40/mo equivalent) adds the private analyst desk, the market wire, the India board, the calendar and your trading journal. Max (request access) adds your Pakistan landed cost and ship tracking, and custom Institute plans cover desks and banks. If you trade this market and see something missing, tell us.
The FCPO contracts every palm desk watches first — live quotes, the forward curve, bid and ask, and an honest live-or-settled badge on every price. No faked ticks.
The complete licensed story a refiner reads before pricing a cargo — not a one-line headline. The same wire the big desks pay for.
Most days, Rasad turns the day's licensed wire into a short private read for Medium members — what moved, what to watch, what it means for your buying. Drafted from the market, with names taken out, and checked by our desk before it reaches you.
Turns the Malaysian price into your real cost at your port — freight, duty, taxes and your currency. Pakistan is live today (Port Qasim, in rupees per maund, with the State Bank dollar rate); India, China, Bangladesh, Europe and more are rolling out. Every number sourced and operator-checked. Max tier, in beta.
Market-moving posts, WhatsApp-sourced trader notes, and ship, port and satellite reads — each switched on as it's verified and labelled beta or coming until then. Never a fabricated row.
Search the whole contract universe, the live-trading ones first. If a source isn't verified or an input isn't ready, Rasad marks it beta, stale, or absent — it never pretends.
One Go binary, server-rendered HTML, SQLite persistence, and a licensed market-data pipeline. Runs on Google Cloud Singapore. The public launch shows relayed Bursa contracts (public preview, prices delayed 30 min) and full licensed Dow Jones stories — whole bodies, not just headlines; backup replication and external alerting are production ops switches, not marketing claims.
No fake rows. If a source is not verified or an input is not ready, Rasad marks it as beta, stale, or absent instead of pretending.
$300
/yr · Starter
Bloomberg costs $27,660/year. Refinitiv costs $24,000/year. Both built for London and Chicago, not the palm desks that buy this oil.
Try it free for 14 days, no card. Then Rasad is billed yearly — Starter $300/year, Medium $480/year, with a higher Max tier (request access) and custom Institute plans. The palm-oil trade doesn't need a Bloomberg — it needs a terminal that actually covers it.
Built in Pakistan, for palm desks worldwide.
