Active Trading

Active trading refers to conducting securities transactions based on short-term movements in price. While there is no precise time measurement for active trading, traders using an active trading strategy typically hold positions for only a short period of time, which can range from a few hours (i.e., day trading) to a few days (i.e., swing trading) or longer (i.e., position trading). Mondeum Pro is designed with features and functionality that support active trading as opposed to long-term investing.
All day traders can safely be considered active traders, but not all active traders are day traders. While both focus on short-term opportunities, day traders typically open and close their positions intraday, whereas active traders can hold their positions for multiple days or longer.

Onboarding

To open a Mondeum Pro account, you must submit a valid form of government-issued photo identification and proof of address. Additional documentation may be requested as part of our due diligence process.
You can submit a signed driver’s license, passport or state identification card that is more than 60 days from expiring.
You can submit a utility bill, credit card statement, bank statement or mortgage statement that is not more than three months old.
The application review process typically takes 1-2 business days if all the documents submitted meet Mondeum’s requirements. Look out for emails from us and respond to them as quickly as you can, as missing information can cause delays in opening your account.
Your username, temporary password and other relevant account details will be provided to you via email after your account has been approved. Make sure to retain your approval email for future reference.
Your account approval email will contain a link to download your selected trading platform.
No, clients with applications that have been rejected are not permitted to reapply. If you think that an error was made, please contact our client services team.

Funding

You can fund your account by creating a funding profile and making an ACH or wire deposit on the client dashboard. Mondeum maintains a partnership with Plaid to securely connect your bank to our clearing firm.
Wire transfers can take several business days to clear. Upon receipt, your funds will be processed and deposited into your account.

Mondeum Pro requires a minimum initial deposit of $2,000 for a Margin account and $25,000 for a Pattern Day Trader (PDT) Margin account. For more information, see here.

ACH and wire deposits must come from an approved funding profile such as your personal bank account. Deposits from third parties are not accepted.
Account funding must be made in US Dollars.
Your funds are allocated to your brokerage account, which is held by our clearing firm, RQD* Clearing.

Commissions, Fees and Rebates

Mondeum Pro accounts are subscription-based and include monthly fees for access to your selected trading platform and market data feeds. You are also subject to various trading fees depending on your trading activity. See our pricing for full details.

Platform and market data fees are not prorated and will be deducted from your account’s available cash balance on the first day of the calendar month.
If your monthly trading activity exceeds 500,000 shares, you will receive a rebate on the trading platform fee. However, you will still be required to pay the applicable market data fees.
The trading platform fee rebate is applied within the first 5 business days of the following month for accounts with trading activity exceeding 500,000 shares.
Account funding must be made in US Dollars.
For every 90 days that your account remains inactive (i.e., no trading activity), there is an inactivity fee of $50.00.

No, Mondeum does not share in clients’ profits or losses caused by trading platform technical issues. Sterling Trader® Pro and DAS Trader Pro are trading platforms owned by third-party software providers.
The max intraday buying power permitted by Mondeum and its clearing firm is 4:1 for PDT Margin accounts and 2:1 for Margin accounts. The max pre- and post-market buying power, also referred to as overnight buying power, is 2:1 for both PDT Margin accounts and Margin accounts. Buying power is based on an account’s daily starting equity value. By trading on margin, you are essentially taking a loan against your equity. This means that as your account equity changes, the amount that you can borrow also changes. Available buying power may be adjusted depending on market conditions.

Yes, traders are prohibited from trading over-the-counter (OTC) stocks (e.g., pink sheets and bulletin boards) and low average daily volume stocks (i.e., securities trading under 100,000 shares per day using a rolling 30-day average).

Resetting your trading platform password must be done over the phone and requires security verification. Please contact our client services team by calling 1-833-781-6338 or submit a request on the client dashboard and they will call you.

You will only be allowed to close existing positions and cancel pending orders. Please note that accounts must maintain a minimum equity balance of $25,000 to maintain trading permissions.
This message means that your account is currently inactive. This may be due to the account not being funded or the equity balance falling below the minimum equity requirement. If you believe you are receiving this message in error, please contact our client services team for assistance.

DAS Trader Pro

This message means that the username you have entered does not exist. Please ensure you are entering the username provided in your account approval email with no typos.

This message means that your account is currently inactive. This may be due to the account not being funded or the equity balance falling below the minimum equity requirement. If you believe you are receiving this message in error, please contact our client services team for assistance.

This message is usually associated with an internet issue. Please ensure that you have a stable internet connection. The platform will continue to try to reconnect until a connection is secured. There are 2 ISPs that clients can use to connect to the platform. 

Steps:

    • #1. Click “Setup”, then “Network”.
    • #2. Select another ISP that can connect to us.
    • #3. Click “Move Up”.
    • #4. Click “Commit”.

 

If you have changed the order of the network and still have network issues and an outage has not been reported, then it means the issue is your internet connection. Please note that it is important for you to maintain both networks in your settings at all times for redundancy.

You can submit an account reactivation request on the client dashboard.
