On-chain payouts

Paid to traders, measured on-chain

This firm does not appear in the on-chain payout aggregator.

Only 39 of the 102 firms in the census appear in the on-chain aggregator. A firm that pays by bank transfer does not show up here, and that does not mean it does not pay. It means this figure cannot be checked on a blockchain.

Expressly prohibited14

Recorded in Spanish. We store a reading of these practices rather than the firm’s literal wording, so this is a paraphrase and not a quote. The source link beside each block is the firm’s own page.

The firm may publish these on its own site. We show them apart because they are not verified at the source.

These are the rules the firm publishes for all its accounts. Where a specific model says otherwise, the model wins, and it appears below with its own source.

Leverage, commissions and instruments

Not comparable between firms, so not a sortable column. 6 firms publish commissions in three units: per side, per round trip, and prose per model. Per side versus round trip is a factor of two. Each figure keeps the name and unit the firm gives it.

Maximum risk per idea

aplica
true
  • “Consistently risking more than 2.5% of your account balance on individual OR ACROSS MULTIPLE TRADES is considered high risk”
  • they watch for margin usage above 60-70% on a regular basis
  • they expressly name 'overexposure to correlated assets', because 'all trades depend on the same market factor'
  • EIGHTEENTH of the risk-per-idea family: the 2.5% is not per single trade, it is 'across multiple trades'. A portfolio of 20 correlated systems blows through it without any one of them going over the limit on its own
  • escalation: formal warning -> restrictions -> progress reset -> suspension or closure

The lines without quotation marks are ours, not the firm’s: notes the census took while reading their page. Only what sits inside quotation marks is the firm’s own wording.

Questions about ThinkCapital

Is ThinkCapital worth checking, and where do these numbers come from?

We do not rate firms. What we can tell you is what it publishes and where we read it: 5 account models on this page, 7 official pages of theirs cited, and 35 dated readings behind the figures. Anything they do not publish is shown as a gap, not filled in.

What does ThinkCapital forbid outright?

14 practices that they name themselves. They are listed on this page with their own wording, because the wording is the rule: “high-frequency” and “latency arbitrage” are not the same thing.
