Maak kennis met TIC Desk: de TIC-tradingapp, nu op je desktop

What is TIC Desk?

TIC Desk is the desktop, browser-based version of the TIC app. There is nothing to install: you open ticai.io/desk, sign in with your existing TIC account, and the full workstation loads in the browser. It is built for the one thing a phone cannot give a trader, which is space. Charts, a signal, the economic calendar and your journal can all be on screen at once instead of one tab at a time.

It is available in 13 languages, including full right-to-left Arabic, so the entire workstation reads correctly whether you work in English or in Arabic.

What can you actually do on it?

Most of what the phone app does, with more room to do it. The left rail groups the tools the way a trader works:

• Plan a trade — live Markets, a Market Sentiment read, Signals, and an AI Chat you can ask about any setup.
• Trading tools — full Charts, the Backtest Lab, an Economic Calendar, Market Sessions, a Watchlist, Price Alerts, Calculators, COT Positioning, a Liquidity Map and a Currency Converter.
• Track my money — Paper Trade and Learn, a Portfolio view, a Capital plan and Prop Guardrails.
• Learn and compete — the full Trading Academy, the Trading Journal with its analytics, the weekly Trading League and the community feed.

The Trading Journal, paper-trading simulator, charts, calculators, economic calendar and Academy are free. Signals and the AI Chat sit on the Pro tier; the Backtest Lab, Portfolio, Capital and Prop Guardrails sit on Elite. The Desk shows a small badge on the paid tools, so you always know what a feature costs before you open it rather than after.

Does it stay in sync with the phone app?

Yes, and that is the whole point of one account across all screens. You sign in once, and your watchlist, journal entries, Academy progress and rewards are the same records seen from two devices. Start reading an Academy lesson on the train and finish it at your desk; log a trade on the Desk and it is in the same journal on your phone. There is no separate desktop account, no export and import, and no second subscription.

What is free and what needs a subscription?

Free, with only a TIC account: the Trading Journal and its discipline tracking, the paper-trading simulator, live charts, the economic calendar, calculators, Market Sessions and the Trading Academy.

Pro adds live Signals and the AI Chat. Elite adds the Backtest Lab, the Portfolio and Capital planning tools, and Prop Guardrails. It is the same subscription as the mobile app: paying on one device unlocks the feature on both.

Who is TIC Desk for?

It is for the part of trading that is not placing orders. If you use the phone app to glance at a signal or an alert, the Desk is where you sit down to read the chart properly, backtest an idea before you risk money on it, review last week's journal, or work through an Academy level on a real keyboard.

The honest limits are worth stating plainly. TIC Desk is a research, journaling and learning workstation, not a broker: it does not hold your money and it does not place live trades into a brokerage on your behalf. It is a set of tools and lessons that help you make your own decisions, and like any tool it does not make anyone profitable on its own. The same reasoning is why TIC judges its own strategies on an independently verified Myfxbook record at /results rather than on screenshots.

If you are new to some of the tools it puts in front of you, what drawdown really measures and risk and reward are good places to start, and the paper-trading simulator lets you practise all of it without risking a cent.
