Always up to date, all firms in one place
95% of traders fail their prop firm challenge.
Most traders don't lose on strategy. They break one rule they didn't know was there. Tradesef watches every firm's rules in real time, so you always know your room to trade before you breach.
Everything in one place
My story
I lost accounts I should have kept.
I'm Sven, a 23-year-old day trader who's spent more hours in front of charts than I'd like to admit.
Here's what used to drive me crazy: it wasn't my strategy. I knew how to trade. I could read the market and take good setups, and still end up losing funded accounts anyway.
It took me too long to see why. I was losing on everything around the trading. Sizing positions on a gut feeling instead of a real number. Notes scattered across a dozen screenshots I never looked at again. And most of all, getting caught out by prop firm rules I didn't fully understand. A couple of losses, one trailing drawdown that moved differently than I thought, and the whole account was gone, over a rule I didn't even know was there.
I was doing everything right on the chart and still bleeding accounts for reasons that had nothing to do with my strategy.
So I built the thing I actually needed. Every firm's rules in one place, always up to date. A way to know my risk before I take the trade. A journal that keeps me honest. Real clarity, instead of hoping it works out.
That's Tradesef. I built it for myself first, because I was stuck in the same mess you might be in right now. I still trade every day, and I use it every day. I'm putting my name and face on it for one reason: so you know there's a real trader behind this, someone who's lost the accounts, learned the hard way, and built something so you don't have to.
