Setting up Your Wallet
What is a wallet?
A wallet represents a segregated bank account that is used by a funder to finance its investment strategies. If a you as a funder is yet to integrate a real segregated bank account then your wallet is no more than a virtual account with virtual/simulated capital.
You get your own set of wallets - one for each investment currency you intend to use on the platform. You can deposit funds into any of these wallets and use them to create investment strategies.
To create an investment strategy your wallet's available balance must be equal to or greater than the limit set for the strategy, for example to set a $100,000 investment limit your selected wallet's balance needs to be =>$100,000.
Understanding wallet terminology
(1) Available – This is the available (uncommitted) wallet limit.
(2) Currently Invested – This is the total amount that has been committed to investment strategies.
(3) Initial Margin – This is only applicable when using our segregated bank accounts and refers to funds held as a deposit against your forward contracts.
(4) Yield to Payout – This is the sum of the returns that are due for payout
(5) Total - This is the sum of the above, i.e., Available + Currently Invested + Initial Margin + Yield to Payout
Depositing virtual funds into your preferred wallet

Enter the amount (of virtual/simulated funds) to deposit in your wallet. Once you click deposit, the system will instantly increase the wallet balance by the set amount. This deposit will remain a simulation until you integrate a bank account. If you enter an erroneous amount, you can offset it by making a withdrawal.

Choose the dummy bank account we’ve pre-set for you. The amount you choose to withdraw will be deducted from the wallet balance, therefore, decreasing the wallet limit. If you enter an erroneous amount, you can offset it by making a deposit.
