What this means
Regulation carries the heaviest weight in the score, which is why it is scored first.
Trader's Way lists its regulation as Unregulated.
Client money is held separately from the firm's own money, at Not publicly disclosed. That separation is what makes your balance recoverable if the company fails, rather than part of the pool its creditors divide up.
There is no negative balance protection. In a fast market a position can gap straight through your stop, and without this the resulting debt is legally yours - you can lose more than you deposited.
No compensation scheme covers this entity. If the firm fails owing you money there is no statutory fund to claim against, and what you get back depends entirely on what administrators recover.
