TradeLocker Risk Management & Dealing Services

    TradeLocker is where a large share of newer prop firms and modern brokers now run their funded and live products. The platform is quick to launch on, which means most teams reach meaningful trading volume long before they have a risk desk. Verix monitoring uses read-only API access for payout review and abuse investigation. Where Deltar's mandate includes active dealing, hedging, routing or platform administration, the required permissions are agreed in advance, restricted to the documented responsibilities and defined during onboarding.

    API Integration and Permissions

    Because TradeLocker is API-first, integration is lighter than on a traditional server platform. We connect to your brand through API credentials and stream accounts, groups, positions, order events and equity history into Verix. Verix monitoring connects through read-only access. Where the agreed mandate is monitoring, recommendation and escalation only, no operational permissions are required. Where the engagement includes active dealing, hedging or platform administration, the required permissions are defined in advance, restricted to the agreed responsibilities and documented during onboarding. Deltar never takes custody of client funds.

    Exposure and Rule Monitoring

    On the risk side we watch aggregate exposure across funded and live accounts together, because a funded book that all trades the same setup behaves like one large position rather than many small ones. On the rule side we watch daily loss and maximum drawdown thresholds, minimum trading days, prohibited instruments and news windows, and lot-size ceilings. Breaches are flagged as they occur, with the trade records attached, so the decision your team takes later is based on evidence rather than reconstruction.

    • Aggregate exposure across funded and live accounts
    • Daily loss and maximum drawdown enforcement
    • Prohibited instrument and news-window checks
    • Evidence attached to every flagged breach

    Routing and Book Structure

    Firms on TradeLocker usually run a simulated funded book alongside a live book, and the interesting question is which flow deserves to reach the market. We help define that split by symbol, account tier and consistency of the trader behind it, then operate the resulting policy: A-book candidates confirmed hedged, B-book residual measured against ceilings, hybrid splits reviewed as traders scale. Every routing change is logged and appears in the daily report.

    Payout Review and Abuse Detection

    Payouts are where a funded programme either holds or leaks. Each request is run through our abuse checks and against your rulebook, and returned with a recommendation, the reasoning and the underlying trades. We look for hedging between accounts, latency and news-spike exploitation, tick-scalping, copy trading across identities, martingale recovery and single operators behind multiple funded accounts. Full detail on the methodology sits on our prop firm payout review service page.

    • Payout requests checked against your rulebook
    • Group hedging and copy-trading detection
    • Latency, news-spike and tick-scalping checks
    • Written recommendation with evidence, decision stays yours

    [24/7 or 24/5] Coverage and Reporting

    Funded traders are global and they trade at unsociable hours, which is exactly when an unwatched book takes its losses. Our operators provide continuous coverage in rotating shifts with written handovers, and treat major data releases and weekend gap risk as named playbook items. You receive a daily written report covering exposure, rule breaches, payout recommendations and platform incidents, plus a weekly review to keep the rulebook and limits aligned with how your programme is actually being traded.

    Pricing

    Engagements open with a fixed-scope Health Check at $1,000 covering your rules, limits, payout process and detection gaps, delivered in writing and yours to keep. Ongoing coverage is a monthly retainer scoped to active account volume, payout frequency, symbol range and shift requirements. The fee is agreed before we start and reviewed quarterly, with no per-payout or volume-linked charges.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Verix monitoring connects through read-only API access to your TradeLocker brand. We pull accounts, groups, open and closed positions, order events and equity state into Verix. Where the engagement includes active dealing, hedging, routing or platform administration, any separate operational permissions are agreed in advance, restricted to documented responsibilities and defined during onboarding. Payout decisions remain with your team.

    Both, but the emphasis differs. For prop firms on TradeLocker we focus on challenge rule enforcement, payout review and abuse detection. For brokers we focus on net exposure, routing and execution quality. Most TradeLocker clients we work with are prop firms or newer brokers running a funded product alongside live accounts.

    Group hedging across funded accounts, latency and news-spike arbitrage, tick-scalping on thin symbols, copy trading between accounts under different names, martingale recovery after a rule breach, and account passing patterns where one trader operates several funded accounts. Findings are evidenced with the underlying trade records.

    Yes. Each payout request is checked against your rulebook and our abuse checks, and returned with a clear recommendation and the evidence behind it. The decision stays with you. This mirrors our dedicated prop firm payout review service.

    The onboarding schedule depends on the agreed coverage, API provisioning, documented rules, limits and escalation paths. Verix monitoring uses read-only access; any permissions needed for active responsibilities are defined and restricted during onboarding.

    A fixed-scope Health Check is available at $1,000 and documents your current rules, exposure limits and payout process. Any ongoing engagement is scoped separately around the agreed responsibilities and coverage model.
