Question 1

What exactly is ClockTrades?

Accepted Answer

ClockTrades is a behavioral analytics tool for self-directed traders. We analyse your trades to detect the 1–2 repeatable habits costing you the most money, and we generate personalized trading rules — written from your own data — to shut them down. Journaling happens as a byproduct of the analysis.

Question 2

Is ClockTrades financial advice?

Accepted Answer

No. We do not provide advice, signals, or recommendations. We detect patterns in your own trading and write rules from your own history. You remain the trader and the risk-taker for every decision.

Question 3

How can you detect my biggest leak in just 5 trades?

Accepted Answer

The pattern engine scores every trade against dozens of behavioral markers — risk sizing, session, revenge entries, trend alignment, news windows, and more. By the fifth trade we already have enough signal to surface the first repeatable leak. The picture sharpens fast as you log more.

Question 4

Which brokers and instruments are supported?

Accepted Answer

You can log any instrument — forex, futures, indices, stocks, crypto — from any broker or prop firm. ClockTrades is broker-agnostic and doesn’t connect to live broker APIs for execution.

Question 5

How long does it take to log a trade?

Accepted Answer

Most traders log a trade in about 2 minutes. Instrument, direction, entry, stop, target, risk. The pattern engine scans the trade against your history immediately.

Question 6

What makes the personalized rules different from generic advice?

Accepted Answer

Every rule we generate is written from your trades, not a template. “Don’t trade within 30 min of news” only appears if news-window entries are actually costing you money. The rule carries your numbers: the dollar drag, the R-multiple hit, the exact trades that triggered it.

Question 7

What makes the discipline score meaningful?

Accepted Answer

It’s built on the rules generated from your own behavior. Every leak you hit counts against you; every clean trade adds to the score. Because the rules come from you, the score reflects whether you’re actually changing — not a generic benchmark.

Question 8

Is my trading data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit, stored in private per-user storage, and protected by strict access controls — only you can read your own trades. We don’t sell or share data, and you can export or delete everything from Settings.

Question 9

Can I use ClockTrades for prop-firm challenges?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can tag trades to a specific account (challenge, funded, personal) and the pattern engine analyses behavior separately per account.

Question 10

What currencies do you bill in?

Accepted Answer

Billing is in ZAR via Paystack. USD amounts shown are reference only. Cancel any time from Settings — the app keeps working until the end of your current period.

Question 11

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

We don’t run a traditional trial — you can view pricing, read every feature in detail, and cancel from Settings any time after signing up. No long-term commitment.

Question 12

What’s the difference between Basic and Pro?

Accepted Answer

Basic gives you unlimited logging, pattern detection, personalized rule generation, the discipline trend, the weekly review and a dashboard covering the current month plus the two previous months. Pro unlocks the full-history dashboard, deep analytic insights across your entire trading history, the behavioral coach that writes the specific fix for your biggest leaks, the leak leaderboard with dollar cost, multi-rulebook support and priority support.

Straight answers. No soft sell.

Stop guessing what’s broken. Let your trades tell you.
