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. Deltar supplies that desk: read-only API monitoring, payout review, abuse detection and dealing coverage under written procedures.
API-Based Read-Only Integration
Because TradeLocker is API-first, integration is lighter than on a traditional server platform. We connect to your brand through read-only API credentials and stream accounts, groups, positions, order events and equity history into Verix. From there we reconstruct each trader's activity as a timeline rather than a set of summary numbers, which is what makes rule breaches and coordinated behaviour visible. No write, dealer or payout permission is requested at any point, so the operational risk of granting us access stays near zero.
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
24/5 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 cover the full trading week 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.
