<p>ThinkMarkets,
a London and Melbourne-headquartered <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/terms/m/multi-asset/” class=”terms__main-term” id=”ffc57e87-e0f9-4ad1-849f-68bc7998a5c0″ target=”_blank”>multi-asset</a> online broker, has upgraded
its in-house trading platform, ThinkTrader Web. The software upgrade covered
four important categories, including the user interface.</p><p>ThinkTrader Upgrade</p><p>According
to the ThinkMarkets announcement published on Thursday, ThinkTrader Web users
can now change the component’s view, monitor the newest market news, prepare
their strategy using the full economic calendar and contact the client support
team directly from the platform.</p><p>Due to the user
interface update, ThinkTraders Web allows traders to reorganize and resize
particular windows, tailoring them to individual needs. The direct access to
multiple communication platforms, such as live chat and social media, also
seems an essential update to the previous version of ThinkMarket’s trading
environment.</p><p>ThinkMarkets
offers its clients access to the MetaTrader 4 and 5 platforms from desktop
computers while providing the web and mobile versions of its proprietary
ThinkTrader platform. It offers dynamic charting, accessible trades, a user
guide, access to 120 indicators and 50 drawing tools, and 19 types of charts.
Users can set up to 200 cloud-based alerts and receive real-time trading
signals regarding over 4,000 instruments.</p><p>ThinkMarkets Introduces
New Security Layer</p><p>Last week
the retail FX and CFD trading services provider <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/forex/thinkmarkets-introduces-new-security-layer-to-fight-fraudulent-calls/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>introduced a new security
feature</a> to help its users prevent or detect fraudulent calls, which are
becoming increasingly common. The broker added a one-time password (OTP)
verification and clarified that their customers can utilize the new feature to
request an OTP from anyone claiming to be from ThinkMarkets. The trader can confirm the caller’s authenticity by entering the OTP into their ThinkPortal account.</p><p>”With
fraudulent calls becoming common among online traders, the security of your
information is paramount to us. If you receive a call from a representative of
ThinkMarkets, you now have the option of requesting an OTP from the caller.
Upon this request, an OTP will be sent via SMS, which you can then input into
ThinkPortal to validate the caller,” ThinkMarkets explained.</p><p>ThinkMarkets
has incorporated various features into its platform over the past few months to
enhance its retail FX and CFDs offerings. In June of last year, the broker
unveiled its intention to <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/forex/products/thinkmarkets-is-adding-web-support-to-proprietary-thinktrader-trading-platform/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>introduce the web version of ThinkTrader</a>, the same
one that was upgraded today.</p><p>Watch the recent FMLS22 panel titled: “What CFDs Traders Value Most & How They Choose Their Brokers.”</p><p>Personnel changes at
ThinkMarkets</p><p>The institutional
arm of ThinkMarkets, <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/executives/liquiditynet-promotes-tim-rudland-to-head-of-institutional-trading/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>Liquidity.net, has promoted Tim Rudland</a>, previously its
Liquidity Manager, to Head of Institutional Trading. Rudland has about 20 years
of trading and institutional sales experience in mostly London-based roles.</p><p>In the meantime,
ThinkMarkets’ long-running Chief Financial Officer, <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/executives/moves/thinkmarkets-cfo-harshad-kale-departs-after-9-years/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>Harshad Kale, parted</a> from
the Australia-headquartered trading provider after spending nine years at the
firm. According to his LinkedIn profile, Kale joined Cavendish Renewable
Technology, a renewable energy firm.</p><p>ThinkMarkets
also made two personnel changes last October. First, <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/executives/moves/thinkmarkets-promotes-alexander-kolchev-to-cto/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>Alexander Kolchev was
promoted</a> to Chief Technology Officer after holding the Director of Technology
of Europe position for two years. The broker then <a href=”https://www.financemagnates.com/executives/thinkmarkets-hires-gmis-chantelle-lea-as-marketing-manager/” target=”_blank” rel=”follow”>hired Chantelle Lea</a>, a
