About Trade Exist
We built a broker around the chart, not around the order book.
Trade Exist is an online trading broker licensed by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) in Hong Kong under licence number PHR348. Seven asset classes, three account types, and one browser-based platform — no download, no cut-down mobile build, and no tool that unlocks only when you pay more.
Trade responsibly
Philosophy
Most trading platforms treat the chart as a window inside the terminal. We treat it as the terminal. Everything else — the order ticket, the watchlist, the account — arranges itself around the price you are actually looking at. That one decision is why Trade Exist opens in a browser tab in seconds, why your workspace follows your login instead of your hard drive, and why the same hundred-plus indicators are there whether you funded with $250 or $10,000.
How we built Trade Exist
We started from the one thing a trader looks at longer than anything else — the chart — and let it decide the shape of everything around it: the interface, how you reach it, where your work is kept, and what you are given to work with.

How we built it
Four decisions the chart made for us
- 01
The chart is the interface
Most platforms are built around the order book and bolt a chart on afterwards. WebTrader runs the other way: you open, modify and close a position on the chart itself. No second window, no intermediate screen, and no losing the level you were watching while a dialog loads.
- 02
A tab, not an installer
We chose modern web technology over software you download, patch and reinstall. It opens in seconds on any machine you can log in from, and you are always on the current version — there is no older build running somewhere with different behaviour.
- 03
Your workspace lives in your account
Charts, indicators, timeframes and watchlists are stored against your login, not your device. Sign in from a desk, a laptop or a phone and the layout you left is the layout you get back.
- 04
One toolset, no tiers
More than 100 technical indicators, a full drawing suite, multiple timeframes and all seven asset classes on the same chart with the same tools. Running in a browser is a delivery choice, not a reduction in capability.
Deliberate omissions
What we decided not to build
A product is defined as much by what is left out of it. These four were deliberate calls, and we would make them again.
- 01
A desktop terminal
Installers create version drift: two traders on the same account type see different behaviour because one of them skipped an update. A browser platform has exactly one live version, and it is the one in front of you.
- 02
A cut-down mobile app
Mobile usually ships as the lite edition — fewer indicators, fewer order types, a new layout to learn. We made WebTrader responsive instead, so the phone gets the platform rather than a smaller impression of it.
- 03
A paid indicator tier
Charging for the analysis tools a decision rests on puts our revenue on the opposite side of your outcome. The full toolset ships with every account type.
- 04
A separate Islamic product
Swap-free accounts are often a side product on weaker terms. Ours is an option across all three account types, with the same markets and the same platform.
What you can trade
What you can trade
Trade CFDs across seven global asset classes — forex, metals, indices, stocks, energy, cryptocurrencies and ETFs — from a single WebTrader workspace, on any of our three account types, with the Islamic option available on all of them.
CFDs are complex, leveraged instruments and carry a high risk of losing money rapidly. An instrument being available is not a recommendation to trade it.

How we operate
How we operate
The part of a broker you cannot judge from a screenshot. These are the standing commitments behind the platform.
01Licensed and supervised
Trade Exist operates under licence PHR348 from the Securities and Futures Commission in Hong Kong, and is registered in its country of incorporation.
02Risk stated before it is felt
CFDs are complex instruments that work through leverage. We publish the Risk Disclosure in full in every language we operate in, and we do not present leverage as a benefit on its own.
03Verification before funding
Every account is verified before it can be funded — identity and address documents reviewed against the account holder. It adds a step, and it is the step that keeps the account yours.
04Support that can escalate
24/5 live chat backed by teams sitting in Asian, European and Middle Eastern hours, with a route past the first line when an issue needs one.
The full Risk Disclosure sits in the footer of every page.
Global presence
Global broker, local service
Our clients trade from different countries, in different languages, across time zones that never fully overlap. None of that should change the spread you see or the answer you get.
One set of conditions
The same spreads, the same three account types and the same access to all seven markets, whichever country you are resident in.
Your language, not a translation of ours
Interfaces, legal documents and support are produced in each language we operate in — Arabic and English included — rather than passed through a machine from one into the other.
Islamic account as standard
Available across all three account types, anywhere, for anyone who needs it. Not a separate account on reduced terms.
Cover across time zones
24/5 live chat, staffed by colleagues sitting inside Asian, European and Middle Eastern trading hours rather than one office relaying messages.
Where we are
One licence, five places to reach us. The regulated entity sits in Hong Kong; the rest of the map is there so a client question does not have to wait for a single time zone to wake up.

Philosophy
Enough about how we built it. Open it and judge for yourself.
No installer, no paid tier, no separate product for an Islamic account. Open a browser tab and the same seven asset classes and hundred-plus indicators are waiting — with Trade Exist, your SFC-licensed broker in Hong Kong.
