Give your clients trdrs as their trading front end while their accounts stay where they are. A brokerage is a venue whose traders’ accounts run on a provider. Your accounts already exist there, under your clearing, and they stay there. What your traders get is the front end: charts, an order ticket, exits, risk controls and an account view over the account you already issued them. This page is for brokerages whose traders hold accounts at a provider. It explains the two ways to bring them to trdrs and what each can do today.

How your traders get in

The trader signs in to trdrs and finds your tile in Connect, the account picker in the trading app. Your tile shows your venue and names the provider it runs on. How the trader signs in to the account behind it depends on that provider’s login style. With the trader’s own login, an API key or a wallet key, the trader enters it once and trdrs keeps it in its encrypted vault. Anything the login needs from your listing, for example a system name, is already filled in. You never handle the trader’s password. Providers lists each provider’s login style.

Choose how to bring your traders

Get listed on a built-in provider, and stop there. Use this when your traders’ accounts are at a built-in provider, one of those Providers lists. For example, Meridian is a venue on Rithmic, with a Rithmic system of its own: its traders pick Meridian’s tile, sign in with their own login, and trade their Meridian accounts. Meridian keeps its own tools, pre-registers each trader so the account is waiting at sign-in, and has nothing else to build. Run a group on a provider you connect. Use this when you want your venue’s own rules and pricing between your traders and the market. You create a group whose route names a provider connection and the account there. You can create and price the group today, but it can’t route orders until the connection has passed validation and an account at it is bound. Run a venue covers groups and routes. Most brokerages start with the first and never need the second.

What exists today

Everything reaches the API reference and the changelog on the day it becomes callable, never before.
Selling evaluations rather than clearing accounts? Your venue issues those accounts itself, on the paper book, trdrs’s own simulated market. Read Prop firms.
