Create a password from a combination of uppercase, lowercase, and numbers. If everything is filled in, click "Start Application".

In the first part of the second form, you will need to fill in personal details such as address and zip code. Fill in according to the address on your KTP. Next, in the second part, fill in the desired account details. What type of platform (trading software), account, currency, and leverage that suits you. If you are still a beginner, then we recommend choosing:

Finally, you will be asked to read several terms and agreements that apply, as well as check the statement column that you have read and agree to all of these agreements. If it is checked and all fields are filled in, click "Submit Application".

2. Upload the required documents

After completing all forms, the trading account opening data will be sent automatically to your email address. However, the process is not finished. There are several documents that need to be uploaded to carry out the verification process of opening a trading account at ThinkMarkets, the same as in most other brokers.

These two documents are:

• scan or photo of identity card (KTP/SIM/Passport), which clearly displays face, date of birth and expiration date

Both documents can be uploaded immediately, or later after you enter the ThinkMarkets client area (ThinkPortal).

The new live trading account can be operated after you make a deposit. Therefore, the third step in registration is sending trading funds to the ThinkMarkets broker. You can make a deposit in several currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, SGD, AUD and NZD. Note that when filling out the initial form, you have been asked to choose which currency to use, so even here you have to choose a currency that aligns with your previous choices. If you have chosen USD, then make sure the deposit is also in USD.
