Introduction

Trade Nation has come a very long way in a short space of time. Previously known as Core Spreads, Trade Nation was launched in mid-2020 at the height of the coronavirus epidemic. Since then, it has grown substantially. Trade Nation’s CEO, Stuart Lane, is a market veteran with over 30 years’ experience of retail derivatives. He became increasingly concerned by some of the sharp practices that were becoming embedded in the industry, to the detriment of customers. Stuart made it his aim to see that Trade Nation put their customers first in every respect. This was achieved by offering highly competitive spreads, most of which are fixed-cost, and a first-rate Customer Success team. In a volatile market, trading costs can escalate terrifyingly quickly. It’s not helped when some platforms ramp up costs during busy trading times. But on TN Trader, our proprietary spread betting platform, we offer low fixed-cost spreads on most of our markets – meaning regular traders can really rack up worthwhile savings. We also want our customers to enjoy trading with us. This is why we put so much thought into the design of TN Trader, which is available in both web and mobile versions.

We’re all different which means we will have our likes and dislikes. So it’s good that there’s choice when it comes to spread betting providers and the platforms they offer. Some traders like a platform that’s ‘busy’ with windows and panels that can be endlessly customised. Others crave simplicity. But there are some things on which most of us can agree. A trading platform must work for everyone. It must be robust and reliable, and it should also be intuitive and straightforward to use. 

TN Trader was designed with all these factors in mind. We wanted to provide our customers with a comprehensive yet unfussy and easy-to-use platform. At the same time, it has all the features that experienced traders need to help them analyse the markets and form trading decisions which they can then execute seamlessly. 

User-Friendly Interface

The first thing you’ll notice about TN Trader is that it’s uncluttered and easy to navigate. We made it straightforward to open trade and order tickets, create watchlists, set alerts, launch charts, access contract information and study trade ideas from our FCA-regulated partners at Signal Centre. In addition, all trade and order histories, transactions and profit & loss can be accessed quickly from the same screen. So you won’t find yourself dragged away from the action while you check on details of your account with us. With TN Trader, you’ll find everything in one place. And that’s good news whether you’re new to spread betting or an experienced trader. 

Advanced Trading Tools

We offer a comprehensive package of intuitive and easy to use applications, designed to help you plan a successful trading strategy. You can use them to help you decide when to open a trade, take a profit, or limit your loss if things don’t work out as planned. 

When you open a chart on a particular market, you’ll find all your options clearly labelled. There’s a host of different chart styles and time frames, from a tick to a month. In terms of advanced trading tools, there’s just under 100 technical indicators and a broad suite of drawing tools, ensuring that the charting package caters to traders of all experience levels. And once you’ve done your analysis, you can choose whether to trade or leave orders direct from the charts, or by returning back to the platform. We offer limits, stops, trailing stops and guaranteed stops. 

Real-Time Market Data

We know how important it is to have access to instant and accurate updates on financial news and economic data releases. This is why all live trading accounts have access to Smart News. This is our in-house real-time newsfeed which harvests all the top financial news and economic data across multiple sources on social media. In this way we don’t tie ourselves to a single provider which means that the reports that come in are fast and accurate. This helps give traders the edge they need to react quickly to macroeconomic events. 

Empowering Traders for Success

TN Trader really is one of the most user-friendly trading platforms around. It is intuitive and straightforward, with a single portal for all your trading and account needs. Finding markets is easy, and from there it just takes a click or two to trade, leave complex orders, access in-depth market information and launch charts, along with a comprehensive suite of technical indicators and drawing tools. Customers can also trade or leave orders directly on charts, meaning you don’t have to switch back to the platform and break away from your analysis to access the markets. This seamlessness improves the whole trading process, helping you to concentrate on what’s important – analysing, planning and initiating your trades. 

On top of all this you have our Smart News newsfeed, twice-daily updates from our Risk Desk and the fully-integrated Signal Centre which provides around thirty in-depth trade ideas each day, on FX, stock indices and commodities. 

Conclusion

TN Trader gives traders access to low fixed-cost spreads in the markets you most want to trade. We offer well over 1,500 financial markets including individual equities, global stock indices, FX, interest rate futures and commodities. We offer some of the cheapest and most competitive spreads available, not just on one FX pair, but right across the board. In addition, our spreads on stock indices, FX and commodities are fixed within specific time periods throughout the day, This means you can know in advance what our spread will be at any time of the day. This gives you the certainty that our spreads won’t suddenly double, or worse, just because markets get volatile. We don’t know of any other company that offers our fixed-cost spread promise on such a wide range of financial instruments. And, unlike some platforms, there’s no minimum deposit and we don’t charge when you make a withdrawal.

So overall, TN Trader is an intuitive and sophisticated spread betting platform. It is uncluttered and easy to navigate, yet it has all the key tools necessary for detailed study and analysis of financial markets. Most features are located on one page, although charts are launched in a separate window so they can be enlarged for greater clarity. Trades and orders can be entered via the trading platform or directly off the charts. In addition, Smart News is our comprehensive newsfeed which harnesses the power of social media to harvest all the top financial news and economic data as it is announced. We also provide two reports each day straight from our Risk Desk to highlight the most important factors influencing financial markets. The TN Trader platform also gives you access to Signal Centre with its daily trade recommendations from its independent, professional and FCA-regulated technical analysts. These recommendations can be accessed directly from the platform which means you can leave orders to follow any recommendation in a couple of clicks. 

We get it. You might want to try before you buy. So why not take our proprietary platform for a spin and see what we’re all about. You can experience first-hand our intuitive handling and navigation, make a dummy trade or two and see how easy it is to use our analysis and drawing tools.  We know you’ll love it. Only the real thing is better.

In conclusion, we are committed to providing our customers with the best tools available to help them trade successfully, and we believe that TN Trader does this perfectly. So why not give it a go?
