Volume calculator in the order window
Enter the risk percentage and the stop level: the volume is calculated automatically with the formula from the education section. There is no need to switch screens or use a spreadsheet.
Sening Capital — our own trading platform
Developed in-house, not a third-party terminal with a different logo. Protective orders on the server, a risk calculator inside the order window and an economic calendar filtered by countries in the region.

Why our own
Three things a standard terminal does not give you
General-purpose platforms were designed for the European and Asian markets fifteen years ago. Sening Capital was developed for one specific job: trading from Latin America.
01
Protective orders on the server
In most third-party terminals the trailing stop only works with the computer switched on, because it runs on the client side. In Sening Capital all protective orders, trailing included, are stored and executed on the server. You close the laptop and the protection stays.
02
Risk calculated before you enter
The position size calculator is built into the order window. You give the risk percentage and the stop loss level, and the platform fills in the volume. This removes the most frequent and most expensive beginner's mistake: picking the volume by eye.
03
Local context
The economic calendar is filtered by countries in the region and session hours are shown in your time zone, not in GMT. Each instrument's page states the hours in your local time when that instrument has normal liquidity.
| Version | Requirements | Particularities |
|---|---|---|
| Web | any modern browser | No installation; works on corporate machines with restricted permissions |
| Windows | Windows 10 or later | Full functionality and multi-monitor workspaces |
| macOS | macOS 12 or later | Native build with support for Apple Silicon processors |
| iOS | iOS 15 or later | Full set of orders, push notifications and biometric access |
| Android | Android 9 or later | Full set of orders, push notifications and biometric access |
A single trading account syncs across every device. Open positions, pending orders, instrument lists, chart templates and workspace settings are available wherever you sign in with your credentials.
Charts and analysis
Analytical toolkit
- 21 timeframes — from 1 minute to 1 month, including non-standard ones (2, 3, 6 and 8 hours).
- 65 built-in indicators — trend, oscillators, volume and volatility, among them ATR, RSI, MACD, moving averages and Bollinger bands.
- 44 drawing tools — levels, channels, Fibonacci, pitchforks and market structure marking.
- 8 chart types — candlesticks, bars, line, Heikin Ashi, Renko, Point & Figure, area and hollow candles.
- Market depth (DOM) with one-click trading straight from the order book.
- Instrument comparison on the same chart, for example USD/CLP against the copper price.
- Templates and workspaces that can be saved and synced across devices.
Additional modules
- Economic calendar filtered by countries in the region: Banxico, COPOM, BanRep, BCRP, BCCh, plus the Fed and the ECB. Each event includes an explanation of what the indicator is, who publishes it and what reaction is typical.
- Alerts on price, on a change in the spread and on news releases, via push, email and a notice inside the platform.
- Education layer built into the interface: clicking a term in the order window opens the corresponding glossary article.
- Reports on trades, commissions and swaps for any period, in PDF, CSV and XLSX for tax returns.
| Order type | What it is for | Where it is executed |
|---|---|---|
| Market | Immediate execution at the current price | server |
| Buy Limit / Sell Limit | Entry at a price better than the current one | server |
| Buy Stop / Sell Stop | Entry at a worse price, in the direction of the move | server |
| Stop Limit | Placing a limit order on reaching the stop level | server |
| Stop Loss | Limiting the loss | server |
| Take Profit | Locking in the profit | server |
| Trailing Stop | Automatic trailing of the stop behind the price | server |
| OCA / OCO | Two orders; executing one cancels the other | server |
| Partial close | Closing part of the position's volume | server |
Practical consequence
No protective order depends on whether your device is switched on, whether there is internet or whether the browser has crashed. This is the difference in principle from terminals where the trailing stop runs locally.
Execution path
Risk management
The section we consider the main one
It does not exist in standard terminals and it is the reason we decided to develop our own platform instead of licensing someone else's.
Aggregate risk panel
Shows what percentage of the deposit you would lose if every open position closed at its stop. It takes correlation between instruments into account, so three positions on the same idea are not counted as three independent risks.
Daily loss limit
Configured in the account settings. On reaching it, the platform blocks the opening of new positions until the next trading day. The restriction is technical, not a recommendation: it cannot be switched off in the heat of the moment.
Event warning
If less than 15 minutes remain until the release of high-importance data on the instrument's currencies, the order window shows a warning before allowing the position to be opened.
Automatic trading journal
Every trade is recorded with a screenshot of the chart at the moment of entry, the planned risk/reward ratio and the actual result in R-multiples. The statistics are calculated for you: win rate, average win, average loss, expectancy and maximum drawdown.
Reducing leverage
Leverage can be lowered from the personal area at any time. Reducing it does not change the risk of a position already calculated, but it does limit the maximum size that can be opened by mistake.
Algorithms
Algorithmic trading without programming
Strategy builder. The logic is assembled from blocks: entry condition, filter, position size and exit rules. The finished strategy is tested in the built-in tester on historical quotes, with expectancy and drawdown calculated.
API for developers. The REST and WebSocket APIs are available from the Active plan upwards. Documentation with examples in Python and JavaScript is published in the developer section. The Private and Institutional plans also have FIX API.
Algorithm hosting. Strategies built in the builder run on the company's servers: no separate VPS is needed and the algorithm does not stop when the computer is switched off.
Security
Access and sessions
Two-factor authentication, management of trusted devices, a log of sign-ins, automatic sign-out of an inactive session, biometric access in the mobile applications and channel encryption with TLS 1.3.
Confirming a withdrawal request requires a one-time code regardless of the device it is sent from.
