TradingPlan vs TradeLock

TradingPlan helps you build, document, and follow a complete trading plan — so you can trade with clarity, consistency, and confidence. Most traders know they need a plan. Few actually build one. TradingPlan gives you the structure to define every element of your approach — from market analysis and directional bias to entries, stop losses, targets, and active trade management — then walk through it before every session. STRATEGY BUILDER Create detailed trading strategies with structured rules for every phase of a trade. Define your analysis process, entry triggers, stop loss placement, profit targets, and how you'll manage positions once you're in. Use templates to get started or build from scratch. TRADING ROUTINES Build pre-market, during-market, and post-market routines to keep you focused and consistent. Walk through your routine step by step with guided flows that keep you accountable. MARKET WATCHLIST (new) Review your markets before every session in a structured table view. Add the instruments you're watching, link them to your strategies, and work through each one systematically — so you go into the open with a clear read on what you're watching and why. FLOW HISTORY (new) Every strategy flow and routine you complete is automatically saved. Review your history to track how consistently you're following your process and build a record of your discipline over time. RISK MANAGEMENT Define your risk parameters in one place — position sizing, maximum risk per trade, daily loss limits, and more. Review your risk plan before every session. TRADER MINDSET & PHILOSOPHY Capture your trading beliefs, core principles, and your personal "why." Build a mindset framework that keeps you grounded when markets test your discipline. TRADE PLAN DOCUMENT Generate a complete, structured trading plan document that brings together your strategies, risk rules, routines, and philosophy — your personal trading playbook. BUSINESS NOTES Track observations, lessons, and ideas as you develop as a trader. Keep your trading business organized and accessible. BUILT FOR EVERY MARKET Forex, stocks, crypto, futures, options — TradingPlan works for any market and any style, from day trading to swing trading to position trading.

TradeLock enforces your trading rules when you can't. You already have rules. A daily loss limit. A maximum number of trades. A session that ends at a set time. You wrote them for a reason, and on the days you follow them, they work. The problem is the days you don't. Two losses in and the rule says stop. You take a third to get it back. Your daily loss limit is 2% and you're at 6%, because the last one was going to work. The plan says three trades and you've taken eleven. It's 11pm, your session ended seven hours ago, and you're still at the screen. None of that is an analysis failure. Every one of those trades was taken by someone who knew the rule and broke it anyway, in the moment, with the account open in front of them. A rule you can talk yourself out of isn't protecting anything. TradeLock makes it real. HOW IT WORKS Set your trading window. Choose which apps get locked outside it — MT5, TradingView, cTrader, prop firm dashboards. When the window closes, they close with it. Once a lock is active, it cannot be argued with. There is no override and no five more minutes. The version of you that set the rule was calmer than the version trying to break it, and TradeLock takes the calmer one's side. An emergency release exists. It takes an hour, and it costs your streak. THE RULES IT HOLDS Session limits. Your trading day ends when you said it would, not when you run out of impulse. Trade counts. If you set a maximum and consistently exceed it, close the window at the number instead of arguing with yourself at the eighth. Daily loss limits. The rule that exists precisely because you can't be trusted to enforce it in drawdown. Set the window in advance and it holds without you. The stop after a bad session. A loss that would have been survivable at 4pm becomes an account at midnight. Locking the window keeps it survivable. WHAT'S INSIDE Session locks. Block your trading apps outside your chosen window — scheduled the night before, or on demand when you're done for the day. Discipline streak. Consecutive days you clocked out and held. Resets when you break it. Life account. Hours logged off the charts during your trading window. Deposits only. It never drains. Journal. Trade tracking and session notes, so you can see which rules you break, when, and after what. Rules only improve when you can see them failing. Calendar. A record of the days you held and the days you didn't. BUILT FOR TRADERS, NOT FOR PROCRASTINATORS This isn't a general-purpose app blocker. Every screen assumes you trade. The session window, the app list, the language — all of it is built for the specific psychology of the trading screen. Particularly useful mid prop-firm challenge, where the failure mode is exact: one bad session ends the account. Not a bad month. One session. WHO IT'S FOR Traders who have rules and break them. Three months to three years in. You know your setup. You have a plan written down somewhere. And you have watched yourself ignore it more than once. If you're looking for signals, strategy, or an edge, this isn't that. TradeLock doesn't ask you for discipline. It supplies it.
