Built for the moments that matter most
Every feature in Capital Edge exists to answer one question: how do we protect capital before a mistake happens, not after. Here is what's inside.
Four layers of protection, working together
Capital Edge is not a single alert or a single rule. It's a layered system that watches exposure, behaviour, and market conditions simultaneously, then intervenes at the earliest point where intervention is still useful.
The features below are the individual components. On their own, each is useful. Combined, they form a continuous safety net around every position you open.
Sees exposure building before it becomes a loss
The engine continuously models your open positions against volatility, correlation, and account drawdown. Rather than reacting to a breach after it occurs, it flags the trajectory that leads to one — while there's still time to act.
This is the foundation every other feature builds on. Alerts, automated caps, and reporting all draw from the same live risk picture, so nothing you see is a snapshot from a different moment.
Exposure is recalculated on every relevant market update, not on a fixed timer.
Limits that enforce themselves
Dynamic position sizing
Suggested size adjusts automatically as volatility and open exposure change, so a single trade can't quietly become an outsized bet.
Drawdown circuit breakers
When cumulative loss approaches a threshold you've set, new exposure is restricted automatically until conditions are reviewed.
Correlation caps
Prevents several trades that move together from silently stacking into one concentrated risk without you noticing.
Flags the pattern, not just the trade
Most losses that matter aren't caused by one bad trade — they're caused by a pattern: revenge sizing after a loss, holding a losing position too long, or trading outside your usual hours under stress.
Capital Edge tracks these patterns against your own historical behaviour, not a generic model, and surfaces a signal when your current activity starts to diverge from it. The goal isn't to judge a single decision. It's to interrupt a sequence before it compounds.
Manually reviewing your own trade history at the end of a bad week, after the damage is already done.
Reporting built for accountability
Every intervention — a size adjustment, a paused position, a triggered alert — is logged with the exposure data behind it, so you can review not just what happened, but why the system acted.
Exposure timeline. A running view of aggregate risk across all open positions, updated continuously rather than reconstructed after the fact.
Intervention log. A clear record of every automated action taken on your behalf, with the trigger condition attached.
Weekly summary. A condensed view of risk trends over the past week, intended for a five-minute review rather than a deep audit.
Set the rules once, let them hold under pressure
Risk limits, drawdown thresholds, and behavioural sensitivity are all configured by you, not fixed by us. Capital Edge exists to enforce the discipline you've already decided on — consistently, even on the days it would be hardest to enforce yourself.
Adjustments are logged and take effect immediately, so your risk framework can evolve with your strategy without ever needing to be rebuilt from scratch.
A few specifics
Does Capital Edge place or close trades automatically?
Automated actions are limited to the risk controls you configure, such as size caps or temporary pauses on new exposure. Trade entry and exit decisions remain yours.
Can thresholds be changed at any time?
Yes. Every limit and sensitivity setting can be adjusted, and changes apply immediately to ongoing monitoring.
Is the behavioural analysis based on my data alone?
Behavioural signals are modelled against your own trading history, so the baseline reflects your typical patterns rather than a generic profile.
What happens if I disagree with an automated intervention?
Every intervention is logged with the condition that triggered it, so you can review the reasoning and adjust the underlying setting if it's too conservative or too permissive.
