Master yourself. Then the market. Most traders don't lose for lack of a strategy. They lose because, under pressure, they break their own rules β chasing, oversizing, revenge-trading, moving stops. TradeByFire closes that gap. It grades the decision, never the dollars. This is the pocket companion to your TradeByFire desk, built on 8 behavior rules β the composure spine every screen keys to: Size for Zero, Plan Before, React Don't Predict, Patience, Detach from Outcome, Take Profit Often, Roll With Profits, Withdraw Often. VISION β Why you're really here. A few honest numbers become a ten-year picture of the life your trading is for: the month your profits replace your salary, the home, the travel, time with family, the freedom. Build a dream board and walk it slide by slide β the destination that pulls you through the losing months. MINDSET β A narrated masterclass in your pocket. A full library of lessons, each spoken aloud in a cloned human voice β press play and listen hands-free, or read the slides: β’ Foundations β the daily walk: the arrival, then all eight behaviors. β’ Thinking in Probabilities β the probabilistic mind, expectancy math, and a written edge. β’ Elite Options β the inner game, the crowd, and reading price: size to the event, trade the index not the premium, mark your lines. β’ Trading Composure β befriend uncertainty, emotions as data, mindfulness, process over P&L. BEHAVIOR β Your scorecard at a glance. The 8 behaviors, each with today's status, its streak β the chain you don't break β and a 30-day strip. One glance shows which behavior you're actually breaking. Tap the breathing orb for an intraday check-in. LEVELS β Read the chart anywhere. A native candlestick chart with full-width support and resistance lines, a ticker rail, a level ladder, and an invert-scale toggle to kill directional bias. PLAN β Your editable trade plan. A call and a put per ticker, each a full option spec you tap to edit, synced with the web Trade Plan. A guided Plan Wizard sizes every trade for zero β pre-market read, sizing, commit. LOG β Force deliberate execution. The log-a-trade gate IS the 8 behaviors β a single Yes or No before any trade is recorded. A month calendar colored by behavior quality, a full history, and a per-day review. PAUSE & THE COMPOSURE COACH β The intervention. When the urge hits β to win it back, to chase, to size up β one tap. The orb guides your breath, you name the feeling and see its consequence, and the Coach hands you the reframe. REVIEW β Face the day, honestly. Every trade graded yes or no against all 8 rules into a red, yellow, or green day score, the week's rollup, your biggest leak and its compounding cost, and tomorrow's one rule. Plus News, Sector rotation, an Edge playbook, an Avoid list, and an ambient screensaver of your plan and your why. Built on a principle, not an algorithm: every score and reframe is deterministic and rule-based β no AI, no predictions. Just your behavior, measured honestly. The app is free on your device β explore every feature on sample data, or sign in with Google or Apple (free) to sync your own history.
