Frequently asked questions

What support do you provide for remote traders?

We recognise the unique challenges of remote trading, and our support systems are designed to ensure traders are never left without assistance. Our trade desk, tech support, and trading managers are just an instant message, email, or phone call away. For technical issues, our support team offers remote troubleshooting via screen-sharing software to resolve problems quickly and efficiently.

What technological capacities do I need?

To ensure optimal trading performance, traders need workstations that meet our recommended specifications. For traders seeking tailored solutions, we offer custom-built trading systems engineered for professional needs, rigorously stress-tested for speed and stability.

Reliable connectivity is paramount in trading. We recommend:

• A minimum download speed of 50 Mbps via ethernet for smooth trading, especially during periods of high market activity.

• Avoiding WiFi. Consider a dedicated business-class connection or low-latency solutions like dedicated circuits. Ethernet connections provide a more stable and reliable connection.

• For latency-sensitive traders, we can arrange dedicated circuits directly linking your home or office to our servers at LD4 or other top-tier data centers in London.
