GuardMyTrade is the behavioral firewall for traders. Set your rules, trade normally, and when you cross the line — your account locks automatically. No override. No negotiation.

74–89% of retail traders lose money. Not because they lack a strategy — because they can't stick to one.
You take a loss. Instead of walking away, you double down to "make it back." Now you're down twice as much.
Your plan says 3 trades max. But the market keeps moving, and you keep clicking. By EOD you've made 14 trades.
Three losers in a row. You know you should stop. But the next setup "looks perfect." It isn't. It never is.
Built by traders who blew accounts before building this.
Set a dollar amount you're willing to lose per day. Hit the limit, and your account locks.
Cap your total round-trip trades. Prevents the "one more trade" spiral that kills accounts.
Mandatory pause after any losing trade. Long enough for the emotion to pass.
Only trade during your best hours. Block pre-market impulse trades and end-of-day revenge sessions.
Lock in your gains. Hit your target? Account locks for the day. Stop giving back winners.
Survives app closure, restarts, and "creative" workarounds. No one-tap unlock — an AI coach talks you through the urge, and early releases are strictly limited for the life of your account.
GuardMyTrade monitors your positions, P&L, and trade count in real time. The moment a rule triggers — it acts. You're locked out across every device until the lock expires.
The moment you cross a rule, GuardMyTrade applies the strongest protection your broker connection supports. Trade-capable connections close risk and lock; read-only connections monitor and block once you're flat. Your accountability partner is notified, and the lock holds until it expires.
Win-rate and P&L charts tell you what happened — they don't help you change. GuardMyTrade scores your process instead: a discipline score out of 100, built from five separately-scored pillars — rules held, behavior after a loss, sizing, exits and pacing — plus a running ledger of what every lapse actually cost you, in dollars.
Futures, forex, stocks, options and crypto — 30 supported brokers today. Trade-capable connections can flatten and lock; read-only connections monitor and block new trades once you're flat.

If you have a plan but can't always follow it under pressure, GuardMyTrade is the guardrail.
Fast markets, real leverage. One tilt session can erase a good week — hard limits stop it before it starts.
Break a daily loss limit and you fail the challenge. Enforce the firm's rules automatically — before you cross them.
Coming back from a drawdown? Lock in the habits that protect your account while you find your rhythm again.
You connect through your broker's own login or a revocable token, so GuardMyTrade never sees your password. It cannot withdraw or transfer funds. Where you grant trade permission, it may cancel orders and close positions only to enforce a rule you set—it never opens a position for you.
