Trading journal risk management, built to catch tilt before it costs you
Guardian is TradeMind's risk management system — pre-committed loss limits, overtrading alerts, live tilt detection, and trading guardrails that escalate to a hard stop. Blown accounts come from tilt, not bad strategies, and Guardian is built to catch you on the one day your strategy was never the problem.
Every trader knows the moment it went wrong
Not the strategy. The fifth trade after the third loss, the size you doubled to “get it back,” the fifteen minutes you kept clicking after you should have closed the laptop. Guardian exists for that exact moment — because by the time you notice you're tilting, it's already too late to trust your own judgment.
From morning ritual to hard stop
Four stages, each one doing more to protect the account than the last.
Set the limit before the session
A morning ritual: pre-commit your daily and weekly loss limits — "If I lose ₹10,000 today, I stop." Decided when you're calm, not mid-drawdown.
Live limit meter
Your dashboard shows exactly how much room you have left against today's and this week's limit, updated after every trade.
Deterministic tilt detection
Guardian watches for the real signatures of tilt — time-compression after a loss, position-size escalation, revenge-trading bursts — not vibes.
Escalation ladder
Warnings get louder as the signals stack, ending in a full-screen breach Interrupt that hard-gates the app until you acknowledge it.
When a nudge isn't enough
For traders who need the limit enforced, not just displayed.
Broker Hard Lock
Enforced at the broker itself — on Dhan today — so a breached limit actually blocks order placement. Not a popup you can click past: the order doesn't go through.
Browser-extension HUD
Overlays your live discipline status directly on Kite and Fyers web, and can freeze the order panel the moment you breach — right where you're already trading.
Guardian morning review
An automated pre-market nudge that reviews yesterday and gets your limits set before the bell, so discipline starts before the first trade, not after the first loss.
Guardian is free. That's not an accident.
Loss limits, the live meter, tilt detection, the escalation ladder, and the morning review — every one of them is available to every trader on TradeMind, free. Protecting your account isn't a paywalled add-on, it's the core mission. Broker Hard Lock is the one piece that's Goated-tier — because enforcing a limit at the broker takes real infrastructure to run.
