Run a tiny pre-trade audit first: firm, account size, direction, entry, stop, and size. If you want deeper pattern detection later, connect a broker or upload CSV after the first value moment.

Account required to save the result. No CSV or broker connection to start.

Pre-loaded with rules from 20+ prop firms

Therealreasonyoukeepfailing

You had the firm rules written down. You knew the daily loss limit. But in the moment, you sized one trade too large or kept trading too close to the drawdown floor.

The problem is timing. Most journals catch the violation after the account is already damaged. The trader needs a fast rule check before the next position goes on.

Vigil starts with one trade. Full-history import comes later, only when the trader wants deeper pattern detection.

How it works

01

Enter one trade

Start with the smallest possible ask: symbol, direction, entry, stop, size, and account context. No broker password, no CSV, no full trading history.

02

Check prop firm limits

Load the firm and account size so daily loss, drawdown, sizing, timing, and holding rules are visible before the trade creates risk.

03

Add deeper history later

Once you trust the result, connect a broker, journal by message, or upload CSV for full-history pattern scans.

Traders who stopped lying to themselves

Vigil showed me I revenge trade after every loss. 31% of my post-loss trades were impulsive. That one pattern was costing me $400/month.

Marcus T.

Forex Trader / FTMO

47 audits

I was grading my own trades and passing myself every time. Vigil showed me I was lying to myself about my stop losses.

Sarah K.

112 audits

Failed 3 TopStep combines before Vigil. Passed the 4th. It extracted my winning patterns and I realized my edge was only in London session.

James R.

Prop Trader / TopStep

83 audits

The behavioral analysis caught that I hold losers 2x longer than winners. That disposition effect pattern cost me more than any bad setup.

David L.

Swing Trader / The5%ers

156 audits

Run it after every session now. Takes 30 seconds. After 50 trades it told me my optimal frequency is 3 trades/day. I was averaging 6.

The same failure patterns keep showing up

REVENGE TRADING

Recent prop-firm traders describe passing evaluations, getting paid once, then blowing funded accounts through tilt, oversized trades, and loss-chasing.

DAILY DRAWDOWN

MT5 users repeatedly say prop-style daily drawdown is hard to track accurately in real time, especially when multiple symbols are open at once.

MULTI-ACCOUNT CHAOS

Traders juggling evaluations, funded accounts, resets, and rule variations say most journals break down once they need account-level context and rule tracking.
