Trader workspace
Topstep-like products feel sticky because the platform becomes the trader's daily room, not just the checkout confirmation page.
Platform
The software has to feel as real as the challenge ladder.
Mayospell is more than a pricing page. Traders work inside one room that shows the scorecard, rules, review flow, and next payout gate together.
Launch software contract: August 24, 2026. Mayospell's working launch terminal provides account-safe long-option limit execution, quotes and Greeks, order lifecycle, positions, fills, scorecard state, risk enforcement, and practice resets. Benchmark capabilities that are not implemented are labeled as roadmap references.
Review-first execution
An options desk needs tagging, playbook attribution, and reviewer notes attached to every trade if it wants to graduate traders toward real risk.
Payout visibility
The platform should make payout lanes, qualifying days, best-day concentration, and reset status visible without forcing a trader to guess.
Software map
This is the Mayospell platform layer, shown in public.
The platform story is concrete: account state, options automation, review evidence, and support posture live beside the program rules.

Why it matters
Account board
TopstepX keeps the account selector, balance, RP&L, UP&L, and rule state inside the main trading surface.
Mayospell should pin buying power at risk, premium deployed, DLL state, structure permissions, and seat-review status at the top of the options desk.
The trader should know their live rule posture before they click into a chain or place an order.
Performance dashboard
TopstepX exposes performance stats, trade log, Trader Journal, calendar P&L, and export tools inside the platform.
Mayospell currently keeps orders, positions, fills, settled-day pass math, and account risk state in the terminal. Journaling, screenshots, and evidence exports remain roadmap items.
An options prop product needs process review, not only an equity curve.
Risk controls
Public TopstepX tooling includes account lockout plus Auto Profit and Risk Brackets at the account level.
The launch terminal provides manual lockout plus enforced contract caps, daily loss, trailing max loss, opening cutoffs, and no-overnight handling. Automatic brackets are not implemented.
Discipline tools have to be interactive or they become empty marketing.
Multi-account scaling
Trade Copier links one lead account to follower accounts, but only in Trading Combine and XFA; live accounts cannot copy.
Mayospell does not offer trade copying at launch. Every order is bound to one server-confirmed practice, combine, or funded-simulation account.
Scaling is where the interior starts feeling like a prop desk instead of a single-account app.
Automation
TopstepX API Access is public at $29 per month and billed separately, with automation required to run from the trader's personal device.
Mayospell should support local automations, alert relays, custom risk checks, and journal sync without pretending the desk will debug third-party code.
A serious desk product needs a credible developer lane with clear guardrails.
Data ladder
Level 1 data is included, while Level 2 depth is a public $38 monthly add-on billed separately from the combine.
The launch terminal includes contract discovery, top-of-book option quotes, starter Greeks, and underlying bars. Full depth, flow, and volatility surfaces are not active capabilities.
Software monetization in this category does not end at the challenge fee.
Practice and support
Topstep gives active combines a free Practice Account and makes traders stop immediately when a platform issue occurs before asking support for help.
Mayospell pairs an active combine with a 150K practice account and ten server-recorded resets per Chicago trading date. Automatic screenshot and evidence capture are not launch features.
Trust grows when the recovery path is operational instead of informal.
Core modules
A serious options platform needs these rooms from day one.
Mayospell gets more credible when the combine, funded seat, review queue, and research surface all live inside one operational workspace.
Command board
- Live combine or funded-seat status with loss-floor tracking
- Daily loss lock state, flatten warnings, and event restrictions
- Payout lane counters, best-day concentration, and request readiness
Options lab
- Watchlists for SPY, QQQ, NVDA, and custom event baskets
- Long-option contract discovery with call and put ladder navigation
- Top-of-book quotes, starter Greeks, underlying bars, and manual limit premium
Review system
- Desk annotations on fills, exits, and size progression
- Playbook permissions that can expand or tighten after review
- A visible queue for reset requests, earnings exceptions, and escalation
Payout and progression
- Standard versus consistency request lanes in one panel
- Funded-seat history with payout resets and re-qualification markers
- Live-desk readiness score tied to behavior, not just raw P&L
Desk controls
The public product also documents the control surface.
Mayospell earns trust when traders can tell exactly what the room will let them do on day one.
Reviewed limit-order lifecycle
The working launch path is buy to open and sell to close for owned long options, with review, edit or replace, cancel, and position close. Market, stop, trailing, OCO, OSO, brackets, and multi-leg structures are not exposed.
Discipline switches that actually work
Account lockout, event bans, same-day expiry limits, and premium caps should be active controls inside the desk rather than reminders in a FAQ.
Seat-stack operating system
Multiple combines and funded seats need one routing layer for lead-seat execution, payout readiness, reset state, and cross-seat risk before the trader tries to scale.
Review, export, and escalation
The terminal exposes the real order, position, fill, account, and breach state needed to identify an incident. Automatic screenshots and evidence-pack exports remain roadmap items.
Workstation tour
The public platform page shows the actual Mayospell trading workstation.
This is the bridge between challenge copy and the member interior: the visitor can see the seat-aware ticket, chain, depth strip, and execution audit before signing up.
Account-safe order ticket
The terminal confirms lane, account ID, seat ID, contract, side, quantity, and limit premium before routing. A changed account invalidates the staged review.
Catalog, chain, and top of book
A trader can move from symbol watchlist to expiration and strike discovery, live top-of-book bid and ask, starter Greeks, and underlying bars. Full depth is not claimed.
Orders, positions, and fills
Open positions, working and completed orders, recent fills, cancel or replace actions, and close-position controls sit beside the ticket.
Scorecard and incident truth
The terminal shows pass criteria, high-water equity, trailing floor, daily loss, concentration, and durable breach state. It does not pretend to auto-capture screenshots or a support bundle.

Visible proof
Order entry
Account selector, hotkeys, Auto Profit and Risk Brackets, and fast order entry are core platform behaviors.
Long-option limit ticket with buy-to-open, sell-to-close, exact-account review, tier contract caps, replace, cancel, and close.
The authenticated /trade terminal routes every mutation through the selected server-confirmed account identity.
Market strip
Depth and market-data upgrades are part of the product, not a hidden back-office extra.
Watchlist, options catalog, expiration and strike navigation, starter Greeks, underlying bars, and top-of-book option quotes.
Public platform copy names top-of-book data and does not relabel it as Level 2 depth.
Execution audit
Trade history, journal, and performance stats live inside the platform itself.
Open positions, working and completed orders, recent fills, account scorecard, and durable risk events.
The terminal shows real order lifecycle and server-backed scorecard state as first-class artifacts.
Copier and stack logic
Trade copier has explicit source/follower restrictions and excludes live accounts.
Not available at launch. Orders route only to the explicitly selected practice, combine, or funded-simulation account.
Account ID and optional seat ID are verified on each mutation; there is no decorative copier control in /trade.
Support path
Traders are expected to stop immediately and document the issue when platform behavior breaks.
The terminal exposes exact order and account identity plus current execution and breach state; the room gives a manual incident checklist.
Automatic screenshot and evidence-pack export are labeled unavailable rather than presented as completed functionality.
Inside the day
The product leads the trader from prep to review without leaving the desk.
This is the daily loop that makes the site feel like a platform business instead of a static evaluation funnel.
01
Pre-market brief
The desk opens with levels, catalysts, expected volatility posture, and the structures approved for the session.
02
Execution window
The trader works inside structure permissions, premium sizing rails, daily loss controls, and event-specific lockouts.
03
Review and tagging
Orders, fills, settled days, and concentration update the account scorecard; journal, screenshot, and reviewer-note automation remain roadmap items.
04
Progression loop
The same platform then drives payout requests, reactivation decisions, and the eventual call-up toward live options buying power.
Access ladder
A platform business also needs a believable add-on and sandbox story.
Mayospell's offer is more than a combine fee: software access, data depth, API usage, and practice workflow each have a clear lane.

Product note
Included market data
Level 1 included with Trading Combine and XFA.
Contract discovery, starter Greeks, underlying bars, and top-of-book option quotes included with every active simulated lane.
This is the baseline expectation before any premium tooling is sold.
Advanced data add-on
Level 2 depth available for $38 per month.
Roadmap reference only; full depth, flow analytics, volatility surfaces, and richer event monitoring are not active launch-terminal tools.
No add-on state should imply this data is available before its feed and UI are integrated.
API lane
ProjectX API Access costs $29 per month and is billed separately.
Options API kit for local automations, execution relays, journal sync, and custom risk enforcement.
Developer access becomes part of the product story, not a hidden side channel.
Sandbox account
Active combines get a free Practice Account with free resets.
Every live combine should unlock an options paper seat for playbook testing, replay, and dry-run automation.
A desk business wins when experimentation stays inside the same system.
Why it sticks
The platform is the part traders keep coming back to.
The program gets traders started; the room keeps daily work coherent through reactivation, payouts, and planned live review.
Mirror accounts and staged sizing
A TopstepX-style platform teaches traders to operate multiple seats cleanly. The options version should support staged sizing and grouped scorecards without turning into a toy.
Research artifacts in the same room
Strategy prompts, setup journals, and trade reviews belong in the same workspace as the combine scorecard so behavior compounds over time.
Desk tone over social noise
The community layer should feel like a prop floor: opening notes, midday adjustments, reviewer callouts, and ranked examples of disciplined execution.
Platform routes
The platform page sends traders straight into the surfaces that prove the software exists.
This is where the public software story starts behaving like a real product map instead of a promise deck.
Trading workstation
Open the seat-aware desk where ticket controls, watchlists, chain context, fills, and incident capture all live together.
Dashboard
Walk the scorecard, payout counters, funded readiness, and review queue that the public platform page is promising.
Accounts stack
See how stacked combines and funded seats are managed once the trader stops being a single-account story.
Add-ons
Open the software lane for included data, controlled API access, active-combine practice, and clearly labeled unavailable roadmap upgrades.
Status and support
Check the public health surface the desk expects traders to verify before treating a platform issue like a personal mistake.
Member POP center
Open the member artifact archive where payout history, share state, and seat-level release records stay attached to the platform relationship.
Platform proof
Software trust gets stronger when payout and seat artifacts stay attached to the same system.
These shared POP records make the platform story feel tied to real account history, release timing, and member-proof objects.
