Software
Sceptre uses state of the art technology resulting in every trade being hedged in real-time and therefore mitigate any loss of profit through currency market movements.
The Back Office system captures every trade and calculates the closing P&L (mark to market). Should a potential loss be calculated that infringes on the clients account value becoming negative, Sceptre will issue a margin call for additional funds to cover potential loses should the client default on settlement. This prevents any client being in a trade they can not fund.
