Trading

A ticket that shows the whole trade before you place it

Pick a market, a side and a size. MGG prices the order as you type, validates the risk levels you attach to it, and shows you the confirmation before anything is submitted. No hidden steps between the button and the fill.

Three ways to enter a position

The ticket adapts to the type you choose: a market order prices against the live quote, while limit and stop orders take the level you specify.

Market, limit and stop orders compared by what sets the price, what you are certain of, when the order fills and what each is typically used for
Attribute Market Get in now Limit Get in at your price Stop Get in if it breaks
Price you get The live quote Your level or better The market, once triggered
What you are sure of That it fills The price, not the fill When it activates
When it fills Immediately If the market reaches you After it trades through your trigger
Reach for it when Getting in matters more than the level The level matters more than the timing You are entering a breakout

Scroll the table sideways to see every column.

A stop can also protect a position you already hold. That is covered under take profit and stop loss.

The order ticket

Everything priced before you commit

The ticket recalculates on every keystroke, so the number you agree to is the number you see. Nothing is submitted until you confirm on a separate step.

  1. 1

    Choose the market and side

    Buy or sell any listed crypto, equity or FX pair. The ticket takes the colour of the side you pick.

  2. 2

    Set the size

    Enter a quantity or a cash amount, or use the percentage shortcuts against your available balance.

  3. 3

    Attach risk levels, if you want them

    Take profit and stop loss are optional. Leave one empty, both empty, or set both.

  4. 4

    Review and confirm

    Order value, fee, total cost and the balance you are left with, then a confirmation step before it goes.

Charts

Read the market bar by bar

Every market on MGG carries the same chart: candles with open, high, low and close, volume underneath, and a crosshair that reads out the bar you are pointing at. Switch the timeframe to move from the last hour to the last five years.

Risk management

Take profit and stop loss, on your terms

Both levels are optional on every order. When you do set them, MGG checks they sit on the correct side of your entry for the direction you are trading, and refuses the ones that cannot work.

Long position (buy)

Expecting the price to rise
Take profit $72,000 Entry $68,420 Stop loss $66,500
Take profit must be
above your entry
Stop loss must be
below your entry

Short position (sell)

Expecting the price to fall
Stop loss $70,400 Entry $68,420 Take profit $64,800
Take profit must be
below your entry
Stop loss must be
above your entry

Both stay optional

Submit with neither, one, or both. MGG never forces a risk level on you.

Editable after the fill

Add, change or remove either level on any open position, with the current value shown beside the new one.

Checked before it is accepted

A level on the wrong side of your entry is rejected with a message explaining why.

Charts and monitoring

Watch the position, not just the entry

Open positions sit in your portfolio total and its allocation breakdown beside cash, brokerage holdings and investment plans, so a trade is measured against everything you hold rather than on its own. The tools below are what you follow it with. See how investing fits in.

Seven chart ranges

From the last hour to all time, with a crosshair reading price and time at any point.

A live tape

Prices move continuously and every cell flashes in the direction of its last move.

Watchlist

Track the markets you care about and jump straight from the list into a ticket.

Fill notifications

An alert when an order fills, a level triggers or a position closes.
