Know first.
By the time it hits the wire, the trade is gone. SentryDock constantly monitors local and non-English sources closest to your markets and alerts you hours before mainstream picks it up.

Local news breaks hours before the wire.
The first reports on commodity events are often in non-English local sources most desks aren't watching. By the time they reach mainstream coverage, the market has already moved.
Local sources can break hours ahead
A refinery incident, mine strike, or port closure often appears in a regional outlet or local post hours before Reuters or Bloomberg files the story.
Most early reports aren't in English
The sources closest to commodity events are rarely English-language. That's why most desks miss them — not because the information isn't there, but because it's out of reach.
You can't watch sources you don't know about
The outlets that report first are often obscure — regional Telegram channels, local ministry pages, industry forums. Most desks don't know where to look.
You only need the relevant bits
The goal is not another noisy feed. It is a short alert when a watched source reports something worth acting on.
How SentryDock works

Tell us what you trade. We find the sources.
SentryDock finds the local and non-English sources most likely to report first on your markets — regional outlets, government pages, industry channels you may not know to look for. You can also add your own.

Monitor in real time across 95+ languages.
SentryDock reads non-English sources directly and alerts you the moment something relevant breaks — hours before the story reaches mainstream coverage. The original link is always attached.

Get short alerts instead of scanning tabs.
When something looks relevant, you get a concise summary with the source, timestamp, translation when needed, and why it may matter.
Use email, Slack, Teams, or SMS depending on how your desk works.

Use it alongside the tools you already have.
SentryDock is not trying to replace your terminal, squawk, or analyst workflow. It helps you keep an eye on niche local sources that are easy to miss.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does SentryDock actually do?+
You tell it what market, region, company, or event type you care about. It monitors relevant public sources, including local news, government pages, industry sites, Telegram, X, Reddit, and sources you add yourself. When something looks relevant, it sends a short alert with the source and summary.
Who is SentryDock for?+
It is mainly for commodity traders, analysts, brokers, risk teams, and people watching oil, gas, metals, power, ags, shipping, or geopolitics. It is useful when local information matters and manual source checking is taking too much time.
How is this different from Bloomberg, Reuters, or a squawk?+
Those tools are still useful. SentryDock is different because it watches the local and niche sources closest to the story, often before a larger English-language outlet writes it up. Most teams would use it alongside their existing setup, not as a full replacement.
Can I add my own sources?+
Yes. You can add public websites, Telegram channels, X accounts, Reddit communities, government pages, and industry sites. SentryDock can also suggest sources based on what you want to monitor.
