Axcera November 2025 Highlights
November 2025 was a milestone month for Axcera. The company received industry recognition as the year’s best prop trading technology provider, strengthened its engineering leadership team, and delivered significant platform updates that directly support the operational needs of prop trading firms.
Three themes defined the month: validation from the global trading community, strategic investment in leadership and technical capabilities, and continued innovation across infrastructure and back office systems. This article recaps the key developments and provides a brief look at what Axcera licensees can expect in December and early 2026.
For prop firms evaluating their technology stack, these updates demonstrate the pace and direction of Axcera’s infrastructure roadmap.
Axcera Named Best Prop Trading Technology Provider 2025
On 6 November 2025, Axcera won Best Prop Trading Technology Provider 2025 at the Finance Magnates Annual Awards in Limassol, Cyprus. The ceremony took place at Carob Mill and brought together leaders from across the trading and fintech sectors.
The Finance Magnates Awards are widely regarded as a global benchmark for excellence in trading technology. Winners are selected based on innovation, market impact, and licensee trust. For Axcera, the award reflects three years of focused investment in building enterprise-grade infrastructure specifically designed for the demands of prop trading firms.
What does this recognition actually signal? First, it confirms trust from prop firms worldwide that rely on Axcera infrastructure to power their operations. Second, it validates the company’s technical approach: prioritising performance, automation, and scalability over feature bloat or superficial innovation.
Herman Shaho, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Axcera, emphasised that the award reflects the team’s commitment to delivering systems that prop firms can depend on at scale. The focus has always been on building infrastructure that supports licensee growth without compromising on reliability or execution quality.
Lubomir Marasi, Commercial Director, reinforced that the future of prop trading will be shaped by intelligent automation, data-driven risk management, and seamless integrations between platforms and tools. Axcera’s roadmap is built around these principles, and the Finance Magnates award validates that the market sees the same priorities.
The award also underscores a broader shift in the prop trading industry. Firms are no longer satisfied with generic retail trading infrastructure. They need systems built for the specific operational, risk, and scale challenges of prop trading. Axcera has positioned itself as the infrastructure partner that understands these requirements and can deliver on them.
Strengthening Engineering Leadership with a New VP of Engineering
Axcera appointed Dmytro Nikandrov as Vice President of Engineering in November 2025. The role reflects Axcera’s commitment to scaling its technical capabilities and accelerating product development as the company expands its licensee base across North America, Europe, and the Middle East.
Dmytro brings more than 20 years of experience in software engineering and leadership. His career includes senior roles at Wio Bank, Samsung, VEON, and VeryGoodSecurity. He also founded Letiko, a software consultancy that delivered solutions for enterprise licensees including the New York Stock Exchange and Vurb.
At Axcera, Dmytro leads the engineering division and oversees architecture, product development, and infrastructure reliability. His mandate is to scale the core systems that support proprietary trading firms and brokerages while maintaining the performance and uptime standards that these licensees require.
Why does this appointment matter to Axcera’s licensees? Three reasons.
- First, it signals deeper investment in infrastructure robustness. Prop firms operate in high-stakes environments where downtime or latency issues can directly impact profitability. A dedicated VP of Engineering ensures that reliability and performance remain central to every technical decision.
- Second, it accelerates the innovation roadmap. Axcera’s licensees expect continuous improvements in automation, integrations, and risk controls. Dmytro’s role is to ensure that product development moves faster without sacrificing quality or stability.
- Third, it strengthens alignment between product, engineering, and licensee needs. Prop firms have specific operational requirements that differ from retail trading. Having experienced leadership that understands enterprise-scale systems ensures that Axcera’s roadmap stays focused on what actually matters to licensees.

DeepCharts Launch Shows Why Infrastructure Matters for Order Flow Trading
Order flow trading is not a new concept, but adoption has accelerated dramatically in recent months. The DeepCharts launch in November illustrated both the demand for professional order flow tools and the infrastructure challenges that come with them.
DeepCharts held a live launch event on YouTube that attracted more than 38,000 viewers. The platform sold 1,000 licenses in the first hours after going live. The focus of DeepCharts is on professional order flow tools designed for prop traders and retail traders who want institutional-grade analysis.
Order flow trading represents a fundamental shift from traditional candlestick charts. Instead of relying solely on open, high, low, and close prices, order flow tools analyse the actual transactions happening in the market. This includes footprint charts, volume profiles, Deep Trades, and Deep Walls. These tools provide visibility into where large orders are being placed, where liquidity is concentrated, and how price is responding to real buying and selling pressure.
The challenge is that order flow tools generate significantly more data than traditional charting. Every tick, every trade, and every order book update must be captured, processed, and displayed in real time. For prop firms, this creates serious infrastructure demands.
DeepCharts uses Axcera as its infrastructure partner. The execution layer that Axcera provides makes order flow trading viable at scale.
For prop firms, the DeepCharts launch raises an important question: can your current technology stack support order flow tools? If your traders are demanding footprint charts, volume profiles, or other advanced order flow features, your infrastructure needs to handle the increased data load without degradation in performance.
The second question is competitive positioning. Are you attracting or losing traders because of your technology? Prop firms that cannot support the tools professional traders expect will find themselves at a disadvantage as order flow adoption continues to grow.
If your firm is exploring order flow capabilities or evaluating whether your current stack can handle the transition, Axcera offers infrastructure partnerships designed specifically for these requirements. The company works with prop firms and trading platforms to ensure that execution, data processing, and risk controls are ready for the next generation of trading tools.
New Back Office Release: Smarter Tables, OpenAPI, and TradeLocker SSO
Axcera released a major back office update in November 2025. The release included enhancements to user experience, new integrations, and expanded automation capabilities. The focus was on reducing friction for operations teams and giving firms more control over their workflows.
Back Office UX Upgrades and Table Filters
The back office interface received significant improvements to table functionality. The update introduced a new unified filter panel that allows teams to quickly segment and analyse data without navigating multiple screens.
New table features include infinite scrolling, column toggling, row highlighting, multi selection, and column lock. These may sound like minor interface changes, but for operations teams managing thousands of trades or hundreds of accounts daily, they save meaningful time and reduce errors.
The goal is simple: make it faster and easier for back office teams to find the information they need and take action on it.
TradeLocker Single Sign On
Axcera added Single Sign On support for TradeLocker, available to Axcera licensees Traders can now access TradeLocker with one click directly from the Trader Area. There is no need for manual logins or server selection.
For prop firms that offer TradeLocker, this feature improves the trader experience and reduces support requests related to login issues. It also streamlines onboarding for new traders who may be unfamiliar with the platform.
OpenAPI
The first version of Axcera’s OpenAPI is now available to Axcera licensees. This release opens the door for firms to connect back-office and trader area data to their own internal tools and systems.
Use cases include building custom dashboards, creating proprietary analytics, and integrating Axcera data into broader reporting frameworks. For firms with specific operational or compliance requirements that cannot be met by off-the-shelf solutions, OpenAPI provides the flexibility to build what they need.
Mobile View Enhancements
The mobile experience received upgrades to navigation, table and card views, and drawer functionality. The changes are designed to improve usability for teams that manage operations while on the move or outside of traditional office environments.
Action History in Drawer and Extended Event Triggers
Action history is now accessible directly in the drawer interface, making it faster to review recent changes without switching views. Extended event triggers give firms access to more data sets, enabling more powerful automation workflows.
These updates reflect feedback from licensees who want tighter control over operational workflows and better visibility into system activity.
Looking Ahead: What Comes Next for Axcera Licensees
November was a strong month for Axcera, but the focus is already on what comes next. The company will continue to invest in infrastructure reliability, automation capabilities, and partner integrations throughout December and into 2026.
Axcera is building infrastructure that scales with licensee growth, supports the next generation of trading tools, and reduces operational overhead through intelligent automation.
For prop firms, this means working with a partner that prioritises long-term stability and performance over short-term feature releases. Axcera’s approach is to build systems that licensees can rely on for years, not quarters.
Recap and Next Steps
November 2025 brought together industry recognition, leadership strength, product momentum, and ecosystem collaboration. Axcera won Best Prop Trading Technology Provider 2025, appointed an experienced VP of Engineering, demonstrated the infrastructure demands of order flow trading through the DeepCharts launch, and delivered meaningful back office updates that improve daily operations for licensees.
For prop firms evaluating their technology stack, these developments signal that Axcera is committed to remaining at the forefront of trading infrastructure innovation.
