    Trading Rules

    Stop breaking your own rules. Organize your playbook, set risk limits — and let Sensei, your AI coach, flag every trade or open position that breaks one.

    Why Rules Matter

    The difference between profitable and losing traders is discipline

    Six Built-In Categories

    Sort every rule into Entry, Exit, Risk Management, Position Sizing, Psychology, or Miscellaneous so your whole playbook stays organized.

    Priority Levels

    Tag each rule High, Medium, or Low. Colour-coded accents push your non-negotiables to the top of every category.

    Account Risk Limits

    Set max risk per trade and max total open risk as a percentage of equity — structured numbers, not just notes.

    Synced to Your Positions

    Your risk limits feed the Positions page, showing exactly how much more you can risk before breaking your own rules.

    Prevent Emotional Trading

    A written rulebook acts as a circuit breaker, forcing you to pause and check your plan before impulsive trades.

    Sensei Enforces Them

    Your AI coach checks new trades and open positions against these rules — flagging a violation the moment it happens, and proposing a tighter rule when you keep breaking the same one.

    Organized the Way You Trade

    Group your rules by category and rank them by priority so the rules that matter most are always front and center

    Rules by Category

    Six ready-made columns — Entry, Exit, Risk Management, Position Sizing, Psychology and Miscellaneous — keep your full playbook at a glance.

    Priority & Colour Coding

    Rank rules High, Medium or Low and paint each card a colour, so your non-negotiables are impossible to miss.

    Risk Limits, Live

    Set max risk per trade and total open risk as a % of equity — your Positions page tracks how much room is left in real time.
