LONDON and TORONTO, March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Abaxx Technologies Inc. (CBOE:ABXX)(OTCQX:ABXXF) (“Abaxx” or the “Company”), a financial software and market infrastructure company, majority shareholder of Abaxx Singapore Pte Ltd., the owner of Abaxx Commodity Exchange and Clearinghouse (individually, “Abaxx Exchange” and “Abaxx Clearing”), and producer of the SmarterMarkets™ Podcast, together with TMX Trayport, a wholly owned subsidiary of TMX Group, today announced that Abaxx futures are now available for trading through TMX Trayport’s Joule platform.

TMX Trayport’s Joule platform now provides front-end access to Abaxx futures, enabling traders to view markets and execute orders directly within their existing trading environment.

Used by more than 9,800 traders globally across energy, commodities, and environmental markets, Joule integrates Abaxx futures alongside existing gas, power, and environmental contracts, supporting cross-market trading and hedging strategies within a single platform.

"Now that Abaxx’s commodity markets will be available within Trayport's trading screen, our customers will have an even broader set of tools to manage risk,” said Peter Conroy, CEO of TMX Global Insights (Trayport, Datalinx, VettaFi). “At a time of so much volatility and geo-political uncertainty within energy markets like LNG, providing clients with more ways to manage their exposure alongside the existing venues, demonstrates how Trayport supports customers through the power of aggregation.”

“Abaxx futures support price discovery and risk management,” said Shanmei Lim, Chief Markets Officer at Abaxx Exchange. “Availability within TMX Trayport’s Joule platform positions those contracts alongside other benchmarks where cross-market risk is actively managed.”
