Comparison at a glance

1. Control test: Effective date

A trading-control disclosure is meaningful only when converted into a testable rule. For effective date, inspect September 21, 2026 rollout timing. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then review positions on or shortly after the effective date. Capture configuration and event evidence without recording credentials, and verify the documented cancel, reject, decrement, or history behavior.

Model the failure path, not just the setup path. Ask which strategy owns the maker and taker orders, which account boundary the venue evaluates, which message reveals intervention, and how reconciliation behaves after a partial fill or disconnect. Platform documentation describes supported settings; it cannot prove that an operator configured them correctly. In this dimension, exact account-level timing is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The effective date row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to September 21, 2026 rollout timing. Make the operator review positions on or shortly after the effective date, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; exact account-level timing remains a separate production risk until observed.

2. Control test: Symbol scope

For symbol scope, inspect Gold, Forex and 20 listed stock CFDs. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then match every open position to the listed symbol table.

In this dimension, future additions or exclusions is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The symbol scope row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to Gold, Forex and 20 listed stock CFDs. Make the operator match every open position to the listed symbol table, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; future additions or exclusions remains a separate production risk until observed.

3. Control test: Exposure tier

For exposure tier, inspect notional brackets and margin percentages. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then calculate tier placement before resizing.

In this dimension, future price-driven tier migration is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The exposure tier row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to notional brackets and margin percentages. Make the operator calculate tier placement before resizing, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; future price-driven tier migration remains a separate production risk until observed.

4. Control test: Released margin

For released margin, inspect capital made available by lower requirements. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then decide whether to withdraw, hold or redeploy before it appears.

In this dimension, how every account interface labels released funds is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The released margin row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to capital made available by lower requirements. Make the operator decide whether to withdraw, hold or redeploy before it appears, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; how every account interface labels released funds remains a separate production risk until observed.

5. Control test: Leverage risk

For leverage risk, inspect larger position sensitivity after lower margin. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then recompute liquidation and loss scenarios.

In this dimension, future volatility is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The leverage risk row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to larger position sensitivity after lower margin. Make the operator recompute liquidation and loss scenarios, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; future volatility remains a separate production risk until observed.

6. Control test: Stop-loss design

For stop-loss design, inspect protective order fit after leverage changes. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then review stops and alerts against the new exposure.

In this dimension, slippage or gaps during market stress is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The stop-loss design row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to protective order fit after leverage changes. Make the operator review stops and alerts against the new exposure, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; slippage or gaps during market stress remains a separate production risk until observed.

7. Control test: Product category

For product category, inspect CFD exposure versus ownership of underlying assets. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then separate derivative exposure from shareholder rights.

In this dimension, legal treatment by jurisdiction is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The product category row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to CFD exposure versus ownership of underlying assets. Make the operator separate derivative exposure from shareholder rights, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; legal treatment by jurisdiction remains a separate production risk until observed.

8. Control test: Eligibility

For eligibility, inspect region and account access to TradFi CFD products. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then confirm the signed-in product screen.

In this dimension, future restriction or suspension is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The eligibility row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to region and account access to TradFi CFD products. Make the operator confirm the signed-in product screen, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; future restriction or suspension remains a separate production risk until observed.

9. Control test: Evidence trail

For evidence trail, inspect official announcement and dated account observations. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then retain non-secret margin screenshots after rollout.

In this dimension, unpublished internal parameter logic is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The evidence trail row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to official announcement and dated account observations. Make the operator retain non-secret margin screenshots after rollout, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; unpublished internal parameter logic remains a separate production risk until observed.

10. Control test: Stop rule

For stop rule, inspect any unverified symbol, tier or account constraint. Use a sandbox, non-production context, or the smallest reversible test available, then do not redeploy released margin until verified.

In this dimension, support response time during rollout is therefore an explicit audit gap.

The stop rule row should end with a concrete monitoring rule tied to any unverified symbol, tier or account constraint. Make the operator do not redeploy released margin until verified, retain the venue response, and assign an owner for exceptions. Documentation quality is a useful signal, but it does not certify the exchange or the trading system; support response time during rollout remains a separate production risk until observed.

Decision scenarios

Scenario 1: when effective date becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is September 21, 2026 rollout timing. The correct response is not to infer a universal platform or product winner. It is to review positions on or shortly after the effective date, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed. If the evidence changes, the decision must be reopened. This produces a repeatable operating rule rather than a one-time opinion.

Scenario 2: when symbol scope becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is Gold, Forex and 20 listed stock CFDs. It is to match every open position to the listed symbol table, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed.

Scenario 3: when exposure tier becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is notional brackets and margin percentages. It is to calculate tier placement before resizing, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed.

Scenario 4: when released margin becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is capital made available by lower requirements. It is to decide whether to withdraw, hold or redeploy before it appears, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed.

Scenario 5: when leverage risk becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is larger position sensitivity after lower margin. It is to recompute liquidation and loss scenarios, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed.

Scenario 6: when stop-loss design becomes decisive

Consider a reader whose main constraint is protective order fit after leverage changes. It is to review stops and alerts against the new exposure, retain the evidence, and define a stop condition before funds or permissions are committed.
