/* Vector Trading — DESIGN v3 "Kinetic / Accelerate".
   Energetic and motion-forward: white ground with deep-navy contrast sections,
   vivid Vector-blue → cyan accents, heavy oversized Montserrat, amplified card
   kinetics and velocity motifs. Motion is a feature (disabled under
   prefers-reduced-motion). Same HTML/classes as the base site — CSS-only reskin. */
