Setup guide
From zero to scanning in five steps — open a broker account, add the screener in your browser, take your first trade, wire up alerts, and pay when you're ready.
Create an FX account with IC Markets
You'll trade through a cTrader account at IC Markets — the screener connects to it.
- Open the IC Markets sign-up page with the button below.
- Choose a cTrader account (this is what the screener plugs into) and pick your base currency.
- Complete registration and verify your identity (a photo ID upload).
- Fund your account — or create a free demo cTrader account first to try the screener risk-free.
- Keep your cTrader login handy for the next step.
ATHEQ works with cTrader accounts at IC Markets. We may earn a commission if you sign up through these links, at no extra cost to you.
Add the ATHEQ screener to cTrader (in your browser)
The screener runs as a web plugin inside cTrader Web — no download required.
- Go to ctrader.com and open cTrader Web, then sign in with your IC Markets credentials.
- Open the Apps / Plugins area (or Settings → Plugins) and choose to add a custom web app.
- Paste the ATHEQ screener URL:
https://fxscreener.netlify.app/screener/ - Save and open it — the screener loads inside cTrader and detects your connected account.
- Sign in to ATHEQ with your email (we send a one-time code) to start your 14-day free trial.
Enter a trade using the screener
The board does the watching for you — you decide when to act.
- Read the board: each pair shows a single strength score and a BUY / SELL / NEUTRAL tag, ranked and colour-coded so the best opportunities rise to the top.
- When a pair reaches a strong reading in the direction you want, click it to open its chart in cTrader.
- Place your order in cTrader in that direction, sizing the position to your own risk.
- Prefer it hands-free? Turn on AUTO-TRADE in the control panel to have positions opened and protected for you.
Auto-trade is off by default and places real orders on your live account — test it on a demo account first.
Create a Telegram bot for alerts
Get pinged the moment a high-conviction setup appears (Telegram alerts are a Premium feature).
- In Telegram, open @BotFather and send
/newbot. Choose a name and a username for your bot. - BotFather replies with a bot token — copy it.
- Find your chat ID: message @userinfobot and copy the numeric ID it returns.
- In the ATHEQ control panel, paste the token into TG token and the ID into TG chat ID.
- Start a chat with your new bot so it's allowed to message you. Alerts now arrive automatically.
Make a payment
Upgrade any time — access is prepaid in crypto, with no auto-renewal.
- Open the Pricing page and choose a plan (Starter, Pro or Premium).
- Pick a term — 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. Longer terms come with a discount.
- Click Pay with crypto to open a secure checkout.
- Pay with BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC or 300+ coins. Your plan activates as soon as the payment confirms on-chain (this can take a few minutes).
- Renew before your access expires to keep it — renewing early simply adds time to your balance. Track it on the Account page.
