How it works

Set up once. Protected in the moment that matters.

RevenShield watches your closed trades and pauses an account the moment it breaks one of your rules. Here is exactly what happens, step by step.

  1. Step 1

    Connect your trading account

    Sign in through the platform's own official page and choose which accounts to share.

    • cTrader today, demo and live accounts.
    • Read-only: we can see results, never place or close a trade.
    • Several logins per platform; each account is protected on its own.
  2. Step 2

    Set your rules while you are calm

    Pick the limits that fit your plan. Each rule has its own cooldown length.

    • Daily loss limit.
    • Losing trades in a row.
    • Maximum trades per day.
    • The hour your trading day starts, in your own time zone.
  3. Step 3

    Protect your browsers

    Add the extension to Chrome or Edge and connect it to your account in one click.

    • Works in every browser you protect.
    • Optional Windows Lockdown mode makes it much harder to switch off.
    • The RevenShield app itself always stays open.
  4. Step 4

    A rule breaks, the account pauses

    Our server checks your closed trades every few seconds. When a rule is broken, a cooldown starts with a fixed end time.

    • That account's trading pages are covered by a calm cooldown screen.
    • Your other accounts stay open on cTrader Web.
    • No unlock button, no code, and rules cannot change during a cooldown.
  5. Step 5

    The cooldown ends by itself

    At the end time, access returns automatically, even if your computer is offline.

    • Never longer than the cooldown you chose.
    • Your dashboard shows what happened and when the day resets.

An example

One morning, with a guard rail.

Example times and rule. You choose your own limits and cooldown lengths.

09:40

Planned trade

Closed with a small loss. Count: 1 losing trade in a row.

10:05

The urge to win it back

A rushed entry, closed at a loss. Count: 2 in a row.

10:05

Cooldown starts

The rule “2 losing trades in a row, 60-minute cooldown” is met. The account pauses until 11:05.

10:06

Step away

The cooldown screen replaces the trading page. Your other accounts stay open.

11:05

Back, calmer

The pause ends by itself. The count starts again from zero.

Changing rules

You cannot loosen a rule in the heat of the moment.

Rules protect you best when they are hard to bend while you are upset.

Stricter applies now

Switching a rule on or tightening it takes effect straight away.

Looser waits until tomorrow

Switching a rule off, raising a limit or shortening a cooldown waits for your next trading day.

Nothing changes during a cooldown

While an account is paused, its rules are locked too.

Know the limits, too.
