Daily loss

The real reason accounts fail
It's rarely the setup.
It's the rule you forgot.
Most journals record what happened. Rulebook is built to stop it from happening.
-$12
over the daily loss limit
One trade too many on a red day. Account gone.
41%
of profit on one day
Your best day broke the consistency rule. Payout denied.
#4
trade after three losses
The revenge trade you promised yourself you would not take.
01 · Knows your firm
Your firm's rules,
tracked live
Pick your firm and program and Rulebook fills in the rules: drawdown type, daily loss, consistency, profit target and minimum trading days. Or set your own. Every number on the dashboard updates as you trade.
- Static and trailing drawdown
- Daily loss from balance or equity
- Consistency and minimum valid days
- Profit target progress
02 · Tells you when to stop
Discipline,
enforced
Set your stop rules: max trades, max losses, stop after a win. Rulebook keeps a daily gate and warns you before you break your own plan. Every trade starts with your checklist and a reason.
- Pre-trade checklist you write yourself
- Stop after X losses or wins
- Lot size from your risk, not your mood
- Guardrails before you click buy
03 · Journals itself
You trade.
It writes it down.
Connect your broker and trades log themselves: entry, exit, size, result. You only add the why. Then the calendar and analytics show you which setups, sessions and habits actually pay.
- Broker auto-sync with Pro (TradeLocker today)
- Calendar with every trading day
- Analytics: discipline vs. results
- Import past trades from CSV
