Turtle Terminal

Product

The terminal that refuses the losing trade.

Turtle Terminal is a trading terminal with a risk engine in the order path. You trade from it; it enforces your limits before the fill, re-checks your account after every sync, and records everything.


01Product

Pre-trade: the check that prevents the loss

As you fill in the ticket, the rules run on the hypothetical position: your account as of the last sync, plus this order at the worst plausible price among last, limit and stop, plus a slippage buffer you set.

Each rule answers pass, warn or block. A warning lets the order through and records it. A block stops it, with one sentence explaining why. If a rule allows overrides and you use one, that is recorded too.

Market, limit, stop and stop-limit orders. Day or good-till-cancelled.


02Product

Post-trade: the check that catches the drift

Every 60 seconds in market hours, Turtle Terminal pulls positions, balances and fills from your broker and runs the rules on the real state. Daily and weekly loss limits arm cooldowns. A loss streak pauses new positions.

A fill without a matching Turtle Terminal order is journaled as unguarded. You see it, with the time and the size. It is not hidden and it is not prevented.

Realized P&L is computed once, first-in-first-out, at the moment the fill is recorded, so every screen reads the same number.

The terminal

One screen: watchlist and positions on the left, the chart in the centre, the ticket and live rule check on the right, and a dock with orders, journal, blocks and rules below. Regions collapse and resize; the layout is remembered.

The guard bar across the top is the one place that says whether you can add risk right now and why not. It is amber when you cannot: blocked, in cooldown, kill switch armed, or data stale.

Keyboard first. Numbers use tabular figures and a real minus sign. Four palettes, two dark and two light.


04Product

The training account

Every new account comes with a training account: a month of fills, daily snapshots and blocks, ending on the day you joined. The journal, the calendar and the blocks list have something to teach before a broker is connected.

A guided tour walks you through the terminal, has you write your first rule and shows you the month. It stops at Connect. Replay it any time from Settings.


05Product

Kill switch

The only rule that also stops closing orders. Arming is instant. Disarming starts a countdown you chose in advance, from one minute to 24 hours, so a bad moment cannot undo it at once.

While it is armed, manage open positions at your broker. That link is always one click away.


06Product

Rule change delay

Tightening a rule applies at once. Loosening one waits for a delay you set. Raising the delay is instant; lowering it waits for the current delay to pass.

This is the whole point. A limit you can raise in the moment you want to break it is not a limit.


07Product

Journal and audit log

Every fill, from every source, with fees and FIFO realized P&L. Every rule edit, override, connection, disarm and role change in the audit log, written by the database itself so no code path can skip it.

Order detail shows the evaluation as it ran and the broker response verbatim.


Start with the training account. Connect a broker when you are ready.
