Security of funds

Industry standard is not good enough — instead, we strive to deliver “Trade Interceptor Security of Funds.”

At no extra cost to clients of Trade Interceptor, we have purchased insurance protection which protects eligible clients for up to £1m over any claim with the FSCS in the event of our default or insolvency.

Leverage and Margin

Back Close

Leverage

Back Close

Leverage

Leverage allows a client to trade without putting up the full amount. It can be considered as a loan that is provided by the broker. In Trade Interceptor, you can trade with a leverage of 1:25, 1:50, 1:100, 1:200 or 1:400.
If your Leverage is set to 1:400, this means that when you trade currencies, for every $1 you deposit, Trade Interceptor gives you the opportunity to trade with $400.

Margin

Back Close

Margin

Leverage implies that a margin amount is deposited to cover potential losses. When you open a position, you are required to put up a fraction of that position’s value as a collateral. The amount required is visible in the “Accounts” tab.

Margin Calculation

Back Close

Margin Calculation

Margin requirements are calculated as follows:
(100,000 units* Number of Standard lots)/Leverage * conversion rate to your base currency

For example, for a USD account with 400:1 leverage, iof you place a EUR/USD buy order of 0.1 lots (10,000 EUR) @ 1.3632, the calculation would be as follows:
{(100,000 *1.3632) * (0.1)}/400 = 34.08
100,000EUR * 1.3632 = $136,320 (margin required for a standard ot when leverage is 1:1)
$136,320 * 0.1 = $13,632 (margin required for 0.1 lots when leverage is 1:1)
$13,362/*400 = $34.08 (margin required for 0.1 lots when leverage is 400:1)

Margin call

Back Close

Margin call

Trading accounts with Trade Interceptor follow the margin call policies as set forth by ThinkMarkets. Trading accounts will automatically experience a margin call if the criteria below are met. It is important to note that proper risk management and placing of stop losses reduces the need for a margin call on a trader's account. We advise all clients and traders to strictly adhere to margin requirements when trading.
· Minimum Margin Requirements on Open Positions must be maintained by the customer at all times.
· All open positions are subject to liquidation by Trade Interceptor should the Minimum Margin Requirement fail to be maintained.
· Margin requirements may change at any time. Trade Interceptor will do its best to inform the customer about any projected changes by email and via the trading platform's message system at least a week before changes go into effect.
· Trade Interceptor will liquidate all Open Positions in a customer's account if the total equity, at any time, equals or falls below 50% of the Used Margin. Positions will be closed based on the best execution prices available at the time to Trade Interceptor..
· The placing of Stop Loss Orders, used to minimise losses, is the clients’ responsibility.

TrendRisk

TrendRisk

Back Close

TrendRisk indicators are proprietary analytical tools which are available exclusively on Trade Interceptor. TrendRisk is an indicator and a system at the same time; it could be classified as both as a trend following and trading range indicator that facilitates the decision making process of every trader. It is very useful when applied on existing systems that traders use – it gives them a good tool that can be incorporated into their established strategy or help them in developing new ones.

TrendRisk indicators are composed of 2 series of bands and a central indicator:

- TrendRisk Bands
- TrendRisk Stop Bands
- TrendRisk TIP Center

TrendRisk

TrendRisk Bands are made of a series of Trend Inversion Points, forming the 2 dotted green lines:

- the up line is made of a series of TIP Up
- the down line is made of a series of TIP Down

TrendRisk Stop Bands are made of a series of recommended Stop levels, forming the 2 dashed red lines.

TrendRisk TIP Center is made of a series of points between TIP Up and TIP Down. The TIP Center is the point where supply and demand are in perfect balance.

Trend Inversion Points or TIPs are the levels, which are calculated ex-ante by TrendRisk model, where the trend has the highest probability to reverse. They give traders the possibility to anticipate the highest risk level of a trend inversion, and works with all time frames.

Note that TrendRisk is not a Trading System - and therefore it doesn't give you buying or selling signals - but a Decisional Support System helping you identify trend inversions and high risk/reward levels.

In an up-trend situation:
- the TIP Up are the levels under which the up trend enters a bearish correction phase.
- the TIP Down are the levels under which the up trend is fully reversing to bearish.

In an down trend situation:
- the TIP Down are the levels above which the down trend enters a bullish correction phase.
- the TIP Up are the levels above which the down trend is fully reversing to bullish.

TrendRisk Indicators

Back Close

TrendRisk Trend

Back Close

TrendRisk Trend

The TrendRisk Trend is a technical indicator, available exclusively on the Trade Interceptor platform, which visualizes the current trend. It is of great help when you try to determine the direction of the trend. You can find TrendRisk Trend in the “Indicators” menu tab on Trade Interceptor, submenu “TrendRisk” - > TrendRisk Trend. Different colors are available for both phases of the trend.

TrendRisk Trend is a very simple and at the same time very efficient indicator. The color of a new trend appears when a certain number of candles breaks above the Tip Up or below the Tip Down. You can change TrendRisk Trend’s properties by tapping on it in the “Indicators” list. The default number of candles breaking the Tip bands (which is used to indicate a change of the trend) is 3, but it can be customized by every user. If the market is in a downtrend and 3 consecutive candles close above the Tip Up band, then an uptrend has started and the color would turn green. Alternatively, when the market is in a downtrend and 3 candles close below the Tip Down band, then the color of the trend changes to red and a downtrend begins.

If the option “Use stable tip” is enabled, TrendRisk Trend will be more conservative, as the last bar needs to close beyond the Stop Tip (UP or Down) band to indicate the change of trend.

TrendRisk Trend is valuable tool for discretionary or automated trading system, as it gives visual information about the direction of the trend and reduces the chance to place orders against the trend.

TrendRisk Neutral

Back Close

TrendRisk Neutral

This indicator is closely related with TrendRisk Trend but it indicates another state to the trend. Trendrisk trend indicates two phases of the trend : bearish and bullish, while Trendrisk Neutral adds a the third state - range movement.

The philosophy of TrendRisk Neutral is simple – when prices move in a trend and even one candle closes above or below the band which is considered as trend-changing, then the candles change color and we accept that prices start to move in a range. If we see a break of more than one candle, then we may see a change of the trend, which will be reflected by TrendRiskTrend. For example, if we are in a down trend and one bar closes above the Tip Up, it is accepted as a signal that the down trend has finished and prices start to move in a range. The default color for the Trend Neutral indicator is yellow, but the platform allows choosing another color. All settings can be modified by tapping on “Trendrisk Neutral” from the “Indicators” menu.
The trading range goes on until prices close beyond any of the TrendRisk bands several times. How many closes we need depends on the number of breaks we have set in Trade Interceptor. The default is 3 breaks. The number of breaks indicates if there is a change in the trend, which will be reflected either by TrendRiskTrend or TrendRisk Neutral.

TrendRisk Bandwidth

Back Close

TrendRisk Bandwidth

The TrendRisk Bandwidth is a volatility indicator that measures the distance between the Tip Up and the Tip Down. It is visualized in a separate pane below the chart. Bandwidths are the extreme levels for indication of buying or selling pressure. This indicator is based on the Mean reversion concept, which assumes that extreme high and low prices are temporary and they tend to move to the average price over time. This means that the distance between the Tip Up and Tip Down bands is constantly changing, depending on market volatility, and this change can be visualized by TrendRisk Bandwidth indicator. The algorithm for calculating TrendRisk bands is set by default on a ratio of up moves and down moves for a 14 time-unit period, and the period can be changed by tapping on “Trendrisk Bandwidth” from the “Indicators” menu.
The purpose of TrendRisk Bandwidth is very simple: to detect imbalances in the market and generate signals that can help us gain from these imbalances. The calculation of TrendRisk Bandwidth is easy to understand, as it doesn’t use standard deviation or any other complicated statistical algorithm. Levels above 0.010 indicate high volatility, and levels below 0.007 indicate low volatility.

TrendRisk Percent

Back Close

TrendRisk Percent

TrendRisk Percent highlights if prices are below or above the TrendRisk Tip Bands. This indicator shows the location of the most recent close price relative to the TrendRisk Bands, as well as to what degree it is above or below any of the bands.
If the close price is equal to the Tip Up, TrendRisk Percent will be 100 (percent). If the close price is equal to the Tip Down, TrendRisk Percent will be 0.0. A TrendRisk Percent value of 50 means the close price is equal to Tip Center band.
Furthermore, readings above 100 and below 0 indicate that the close price is outside of the TrendRisk Bands by a corresponding percentage of the TrendRisk Bandwidth. A TrendRisk Percent value of 125 means that the close price is above the Tip Up band by 25% of the Bandwidth. A TrendRisk Percent value of -25 means that the close price is below the Tip Down Band by 25% of the Bandwidth.

Scanner

Back Close

TrendRisk Scanner

This market scanner filters the highest reward-risk trading opportunities based on TrendRisk System algorithm. To open it, select “More” in the main menu bar, then select “TrendRisk Scanner” and wait for a few seconds until loading is complete.

The TR scanner is a valuable tool for identifying potential trades. The process of identification is based on a reward/risk ratio, calculated by two parameters:

- The distance between last price and the target level, defined by the TrendRisk system
- The distance between the last price and the stop level, defined by TrendRisk Stop Band

This market scanner filters the highest reward-risk trading opportunities based on TrendRisk System algorithm. The higher the reward/risk ratio, the more attractive the potential trade is. TrendRisk (the TrendRisk bands, TrendRisk indicator, TrendRisk target) is not a trading system which gives you information when to enter a position. It’s a tool that gives signals about the potential reward at a certain level of risk however, every trader must make his own decision whether or not to place a trade.

Stop and target levels depend on which phase of the trend the market is currently in. In an uptrend, the target level will be located above the Stop Tip Up band, and the stop level will be at the Stop Tip Down band. In a downtrend, the target level will be somewhere below the Stop Tip Down line, and the stop level will be defined by the Stop Tip Up band.

TrendRisk Scanner provides static information for the selected time frame. In order to update this information, users shall tap on the “Refresh” button. Except the reward/risk ratio, TrendRisk Scanner also displays the level of the Stop Tip band (Stop Tip Up or Stop Tip Down, depending on the direction of the trend), the recommended Close and Target levels (for the respective timeframes). Users can also see the time of last refreshment of the TrendRisk Scanner.

From the top menu bar you can sort trading opportunities by time frame, security and Risk/Reward ratio. You can apply a filtered view from the gear icon in the top right corner.

You can open positions directly from TrendRisk Scanner by tapping on a currency pair. The orders will automatically include TrendRisk Stop Loss and Take Profit levels.

You can also open a currency chart by touching one of the currency pairs in TrendRisk Scanner list.
