TRADING RULE TEMPLATES

Don't know what rules to write? Start with a template built for your trading style. Each set is pre-loaded with prop-firm-aware risk rules. Customize after you pick one.

How to pick a template

Pick the template that matches how you already trade, not the style you wish you traded. The best starting point is the one that needs the fewest behavioral changes to become enforceable.

What to change after choosing

Customize the loss cap, session timing, and invalidation rules first. Those three areas usually determine whether a template becomes a real process or just a copied checklist.
