Alpha has announced the permanent retirement of the Standard Risk Group following a comprehensive review of its risk management framework. This move removes the blanket restrictions previously applied to accounts under this label, restoring original trading conditions for all affected profiles.
Restoration of Trading Conditions
With the removal of this category, accounts that were previously capped have had their standard parameters reinstated automatically:
- Leverage: Restored to the standard leverage levels for each specific plan.
- Lot Exposure: Maximum lot limits have returned to the standard levels based on account size and plan.
New Targeted Approach: Focused Trader Group
The firm has replaced the old system with the Focused Trader Group. Unlike the previous broad label, this group is more targeted and only applies to accounts demonstrating specific trading patterns, including:
- Extreme scalping.
- "All-or-nothing" position sizing.
- Excessive lot usage relative to account size.
Review and Exit Process
Placement in this group is temporary. Traders can request a discretionary, case-by-case review by the Risk team once their account meets the required criteria. Requests for review should be sent directly to risk@alphacapitalgroup.uk.
