## What is MonkTrader?

Stop trading on impulse. Start trading on your own rules.

MonkTrader is a discipline enforcement app built specifically for traders — using Apple's real Screen Time technology to put a deliberate pause between you and the trade you'll regret.

HOW IT WORKS

Set your own trading rules: max trades per day, daily or weekly loss limits, cooldowns after a loss, and your actual trading hours. MonkTrader enforces them — not with a reminder, but with a real, OS-level lock on your trading app itself.

Every time you open your trading app, MonkTrader asks one honest question: did you close a trade? Win or loss? That's it. No broker connection required, no account linking — just you, being honest with yourself, every time.

If you've broken a rule, you get three choices, always:
- Stay Disciplined — hold the line
- Delay Decision — give yourself a pause before deciding
- Continue Anyway — override it, no judgment, fully logged

MonkTrader is a friction layer, not a cage. You are always in control of your own device. Nothing is ever permanently locked.

BUILT FOR TRADERS, NOT AGAINST THEM

- Real Screen Time enforcement, not just notifications
- A rule engine you fully control — set it your way
- A discipline streak and score that reflect your actual behavior over time
- A private, on-device activity log — no broker required
- Fully overridable, always — MonkTrader supports your discipline, it doesn't punish you

PRIVACY FIRST

No login. No account. No data sent anywhere. MonkTrader runs entirely on your device — your trading habits stay yours.

Set your rules. Build your streak. Trade like the trader you actually want to be.

## Frequently asked questions about MonkTrader

### What is MonkTrader?

MonkTrader is a discipline enforcement app designed for traders. It helps you set and adhere to your own trading rules, like daily loss limits and maximum trades, using your device's Screen Time technology to enforce them.

### How does MonkTrader enforce trading rules?

MonkTrader uses Apple's Screen Time technology to create OS-level locks on your trading apps. This means it can actively prevent you from trading if you've broken a rule, rather than just sending a notification.

### Can I override MonkTrader's rules?

Yes, MonkTrader is designed to support your discipline, not punish you. You always have the option to override a rule, but this action is logged to help you track your behavior.

### Does MonkTrader require linking my trading account?

No, MonkTrader does not require any broker connection or account linking. It operates privately on your device, asking you to honestly report if you've closed a trade.

### What are the subscription options for MonkTrader?

MonkTrader offers a Weekly subscription for $6.99/P7D and an Annual subscription for $49.99/P1Y, providing access to its full range of discipline enforcement features.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.6 — 2026-09-23

bug fixes & UI/UX improvements.

### 1.1.5 — 2026-09-21

improvements & bug fixes

### 1.1.4 — 2026-09-18

This update fixes a bug that could leave MonkTrader locked past your trading hours instead of unlocking automatically when your window opened back up. 

We also added a quick "how long ago did that happen?" question when you log a loss or win — so if you check in late, your cooldown is timed from the real moment it happened instead of when you happened to open the app, and a cooldown that's already passed won't lock you out at all. 

Finally, confirming a broken rule during check-in no longer throws up the Monk Wall right away — MonkTrader locks trading immediately and only shows the Wall if you actually try to open a locked app.

An all round smarter and more cleaner UX experience

### 1.1.3 — 2026-09-10

This update makes blocking more reliable — MonkTrader now stays correctly synced with your trading schedule even after being closed for a few days, so it locks and unlocks exactly when it should. We also added a small moment of recognition when you hit a 2-day streak: a bit of credit for staying disciplined.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-09-07

This update reworks onboarding into a faster, clearer setup: 

a redesigned flow with short video walkthroughs of how blocking and rule-building actually work, 
and a plainer picture of how often your current habits would break your own rules before you commit to a plan. 

You can also now turn on notifications for when your trading session starts and ends, so you don't have to keep the app open to track it. 

On the fix side, Discipline Override now properly suppresses every rule instead of leaving some still enforced, a shield freeze some users could hit after using it is resolved, and amounts and times now display correctly for your account's currency instead of defaulting to dollars.
