Help & FAQ

A quick orientation to what's on the Ghana Market Intelligence dashboard, and answers to the questions we get most.

Getting started

New here? This is the fastest way to get oriented.

  1. Start at the top strip. The scrolling ticker shows the GSE Composite Index, USD/GHS rate, gold and fuel prices, the Bank of Ghana policy rate, and the latest headlines — all live.
  2. Use the tab bar (GSE Markets, IPOs, Rates & FX, Commodities, Alerts, News and more) to jump between the different data feeds the dashboard tracks.
  3. Check the status badge above the securities table — it shows whether the Ghana Stock Exchange is currently Live or Market Closed, and now accounts for Ghana's public holidays.
  4. Tap any row in the Live Securities table for a stock's price, daily change, year-to-date performance, trading volume and market cap.
  5. Use "Ask AI" at the bottom of the page to ask a plain-language question about any stock, IPO, security event or economic trend.
  6. Upgrade to Pro if you want full news history, defence alerts and portfolio tracking — core market data stays free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Phionyx & Acfe Ltd is a Ghana-based engineering and logistics consultancy that provides market intelligence services covering the Ghana Stock Exchange, macroeconomic indicators, IPOs, commodities, and security & defence monitoring, delivered through the Ghana Market Intelligence dashboard.

Ghana Market Intelligence is a live dashboard built by Phionyx & Acfe Ltd that tracks real-time GSE share prices, the GSE Composite Index, IPO activity, Bank of Ghana rates, commodity and currency prices, and curated Ghana business, security, and defence news, updated continuously throughout the trading day.

Core market data — live GSE prices, the composite index, and top headlines — is free to access. Deeper feeds such as full news history, defence alerts, and portfolio tracking are available on paid tiers starting at GH₵24.99/month.

Stock prices refresh automatically every 90 seconds during trading hours, and news, IPO, and macroeconomic feeds update continuously, so the dashboard reflects current market conditions rather than a static snapshot.

You must trade through a Licensed Dealing Member (LDM) — the GSE does not accept orders directly from individuals. Open a trading/CSD account with an LDM (Ghana Card, passport photo and TIN), fund it, then place buy/sell orders through the broker's dealer or online platform. The dashboard's "Where to Buy Shares" panel lists the GSE's licensed brokers.

No. Market data on this dashboard is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Always do your own research or consult a licensed advisor before making investment decisions.

The IPO Pipeline panel shows GSE-listed IPOs with their open/close windows, price range and subscription level. To actually subscribe, you apply through a Licensed Dealing Member (LDM) or your stockbroker during the offer's open period -- the dashboard itself does not process IPO applications. See the question above on how to buy GSE shares for how to open a broker account.

The IPO Pipeline list is curated by the Phionyx & Acfe research team and updated whenever a new GSE IPO is announced or an existing one changes status, such as its subscription percentage or listing date. The IPO & Capital Raising News feed directly below it updates live from wire services throughout the day.
