Getting Started

Connect & Start Trading.

Link your broker account in TM9, set your risk and place your first forex, stock or futures trade.

Linking the account

Connect your broker account inside TM9. From then on, orders you place in the app go straight to that broker.

Before the first order

  • Set your risk settings.
  • Build a watchlist.
  • Open a chart for the instrument you want to trade.

From download to first position

The whole path runs without paperwork queues or email ping-pong: install, pick a broker, fund the account, connect and trade.

In depth

The Detail Behind It.

Three short notes on how this works day to day.

In practice

Before the first live order, it is worth placing the smallest trade you can, purely to watch the full path: order sent, position open, stop set, position closed. Once that loop is familiar, the size of the trade is the only variable left.

Worth knowing

Set your risk before you look for a setup. Position size, a stop level and the maximum you are willing to lose on a single trade are easier to decide calmly than in the middle of a move, and TM9 keeps those settings with your account across devices.

Who it is for

The final step is for anyone who has installed the app and funded a broker account and now wants the first trade to be uneventful. Experienced traders moving from another platform use the same path to get their setup across.

Context

Where This Fits.

How getting started sits inside the wider TM9 platform.

The four steps

Getting started runs in four steps: download and install, select a good broker, fund your account on the broker side, then connect that account in TM9 and place your first trade. There are no paperwork queues and no email ping-pong in between. Your money stays with the broker throughout — TM9 never holds or touches it.

What you need before you trade

Three things: a device, a regulated broker account, and funds deposited on the broker side. TM9 supplies the software layer, including charts with over a hundred studies, alerts, copy trading and multi-device sync. The broker supplies the market access, the spreads and the funding. Getting from download to a first position is a short path, but the broker choice in the middle is the one worth taking time over.

Good to know

TM9 never holds, receives or has access to client money, so every deposit and withdrawal happens on your broker side. Pick a regulated broker and verify their licence before funding anything. Trading carries a real risk of loss, and nothing in the app is financial advice. Support runs through WhatsApp or email if you get stuck on any step.
