Alerts and Tilt Risk Shield
Indisciplined trading usually happens after painful losses. When you lose emotional control and try to win back lost money quickly, you enter a state of Tilt. Kaptur features intelligent shields to detect this state and protect your account.
1. The "Tilt Risk" Shield
If you scan a transaction that reports a severe loss to your capital, or if you consecutively log negative emotional states (such as Angry or Anxious) when saving trades:
- Lock Screen Activation: The application will display a translucent red screen overlay with a blurred background (Tilt Risk Detected).
- Interaction Lock: This screen blocks any additional saving or scanning actions to force you to take a physical break.
- Mental Calm: You will be presented with a warning reminding you of the dangers of overtrading under stress, and a soft green button to exit the lock screen and return to the Dashboard.
2. "Revenge Streak" Alert
Kaptur analyzes your past trades to detect destructive behavior patterns and warns you via dashboard alerts:
- Revenge Streak: Automatically triggers if your last 3 consecutive closed trades are losses and all of them have the
#Revengeor#Venganzatag. - How to Detect It: You will see a warning card on the Dashboard that reads Revenge Streak Alert. This card warns you that your current trading is driven by resentment toward the market.
3. What to Do When the App Prompts You to Calm Down
If the Tilt shield or revenge streak alert activates:
- Close the App: Put your phone aside immediately.
- Step Away from Screens: Get up from your trading desk for at least 15 minutes.
- Drink Water or Walk: Break the frustration loop by changing your physical environment.
- Review your Playbook: Do not open the market again until you have run Focus Mode to reset your mindset.
