Please see FICA requirements 

Once we have received your FICA documents, we register you as a client on the JSE, once we have obtained your 6-digit unique code, we apply for a call account for you at our clearing member. 

Once a call account is created, we send you a welcome letter detailing all the necessary information for you to deposit your funds.

After you have deposited your funds, it takes a least 2 working days before your money is reflected into your account.

There are two ways in which to access the Web Trader Pro (Our DMA Platform):

1. Through the Intrepid Capital home page, login in with the username and password provided.

2. www.intrepidcapital.co.za 

 Go straight to the platform via this link  

You can log into the trading platform from anywhere on a PC, tablet or mobile device with internet access. 

We suggest you start by creating a watch list. You can create up to 3 different watch lists.

In the add symbol field type in the name of the share you which to follow. Once completed, click on the magnifying glass and all the possible contracts that are linked to this share appears. 

Always choose the dividend neutral contract (N) and always choose the near contract, i.e always choose the contract with the closest expiry date. For example if it is February you will choose the MAR15 contract.  If it is April, you will choose the JUN15 contract.

Once you have created a watch list, it is much easier to follow and trade in the contracts you are interested in.

Regular training courses are held at our offices in Rivonia To accommodate individuals, these courses are held after hours. Usually from 17:30 /18:00 to 19:00/19:30 

To book please click here 

From your "live watch list" screen, once you have created your watch list, click the price of the instrument you wish to trade. Click the price either under "bid" or "offer", depending if you want to buy or sell. 

Bid = Buy

Offer = Sell

A order sheet will appear, detailing the bid/offer prices, number of contracts, account in which it will be traded out of, a place to enter the price etc

There are 2 main reason as too why a price would not appear on the screen

1. Technical Issues: Please look to determine whether you are connected correctly (this can be seen on the top of the screen). It should say Connect: Live feed in order for you trade. If you are not seeing any prices please contact us immediately to determine if there are technical issues. 

2. Liquidity Issues: If a price for a single contract can not be seen. Prices are usually made by the Banks and at times they can pull the prices without notice. If this happens please contact us and we will request the bank to make a price. Click here

Initial margin requirements vary from contract to contract. Please visit one of the following links to determine the margin required:

JSE Equity & Commodity Derivatives Margin Calculator

JSE Currency and Interest Rate Derivatives Margin Calculator

Generic Derivatives Initial Margin Calculator

Initial Margin is the minimum amount required to open a position on the market. Given that variation margin will likely be required at some point, it is advisable to hold more cash than initial margin in your account to fund theses variation margin calls. Note that variation margin funds are required to clear by the following business day by 11:30am.

Please email us to receive the fee schedule

An order can either be ‘limit’ or ‘Market’.

Limit refers to an order with an order price as determined by you.  You limit your order to that price and it will only trade at that price. The risk here is that the market never gets to that price.

Market refers to a price that is the best market price in the market at the time of the order, depending whether you are buying or selling. 

All orders on futures contracts are good till the end of the day.  Your order is not rolled over to the next day.

Unrealised (Profit and Loss) PnL reflect your intraday PnL positions before you close out any positions. The unrealised PnL becomes realised PnL at close of markets at the end of each day.

When you exit positions during the day, the unrealised PnL becomes realised PnL and will reflect as realised PnL during the day.

Yes. You will earn interest on both:

 ▪Initial Margin invested at the SAFEX clearing House (Safcom)

 ▪Cash balance invested at Standard Bank (your available cash).

Interest is calculated on a daily basis, but is only credited to your account at the end of each month.

Withdrawal of surplus funds is possible at any time, but may take up to 3 working days to reflect on your bank account.

The JSE Securities Exchange (JSE Limited or “JSE”) was formerly known as the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and changed its name in 2000.

In terms of JSE rules, stockbrokers are not allowed to hold cash in clients’ accounts. Instead, this cash is held in a trust account named JSE Trustees, which is operated by the JSE Securities Exchange on behalf of the stock broking fraternity. 

At NO time is your money held by Intrepid Capital

Due to the JSE trustees regulation, Intrepid Capital never holds your money. You money is kept in your personal call account at our clearing member. Our clearing member is Standard Bank.
