Leverate Empowers Prop Firms with Manual Trader Approval in Update v7.2
Leverate has released version 7.2 of its trading platform. It adds a powerful control feature for proprietary (prop) trading firms. The update introduces Manual Control Over Step Approvals. It lets firms verify each stage of a trader’s challenge manually. It will improve oversight, reduce risk, and ensure better decision-making before granting access to funded capital.
The Challenge with Auto-Approvals
Most prop firms rely on auto-approval systems to move traders through challenge steps. These systems unlock funded accounts once traders meet predefined conditions. It is efficient, but can create blind spots. Firms can miss critical signals such as inconsistent strategies, high-risk behavior, or technical violations. Automation limits human review. It can expose firms to unnecessary risk.
What is Manual Step Approval?
Version 7.2 gives firms two approval modes:
- Auto-Approved: Steps activate automatically when conditions are met.
- Manually Approved: Steps stay “Pending” until reviewed and approved by staff.
Firms can configure this setting in the Plan Steps section of the Broker Portal. There is no required migration. Existing plans will continue operating under auto-approval unless changed manually.
How It Works for Traders
When a step requires manual approval, the trader sees a clear “Pending Approval” label on their Prop Dashboard. It helps manage expectations. Once approved by the firm, the next step unlocks automatically. It creates a smooth user experience without additional delays.
Benefits for Firms
This update will offer these benefits:
Full Control Over Trader Progression
Manual approvals let firms decide who moves forward in the challenge. It reduces reliance on automation and ensures only trusted traders access funded accounts.
Identify Risky Behavior Early
Firms can review trading styles, rule compliance, and suspicious patterns before approving the next step. It helps catch red flags before capital is exposed.
Strengthen Capital Protection
Firms can prevent unqualified or exploitative traders from reaching sensitive funding phases by manually verifying each step.
Improve Operational Flexibility
The approval mode can be configured per plan. Firms can choose where to apply manual reviews and where to keep automation, based on risk levels.
Reduce Support Load
Traders see a clear “Pending Approval” status in their dashboard. It reduces confusion and support tickets.
