The order management panel provides live tracking of active trades, pending orders, and trade history, with profit and loss displayed in the chosen base currency.

Customizing Your Trading Workspace

Users can create multiple chart layouts and save up to 10 templates. The web terminal remembers chosen indicators, color schemes, and window arrangements between sessions. This feature allows South African traders to switch between workspaces focusing on ZAR pairs, commodities, or indices seamlessly. Templates may also be shared or duplicated across accounts.

Setting Up Market Alerts and Notifications

Alerts can be configured for price levels, percentage changes, or indicator signals specific to ZAR volatility or commodity shifts. Notifications are delivered via browser pop-ups, email, or SMS to South African numbers. The integrated economic calendar provides alerts on SARB interest rate decisions and other high-impact events, displayed in South African Standard Time for clarity.
