Brokers every signal goes to each active broker; switch trading per broker in the top bar

Paper trading (Always On)

Simulated fills at the live WebSocket price with fees, slippage and leverage. Nothing leaves this machine. This broker is always active.

Delta Exchange

Real orders on your Delta account (demo or live, below), with stop loss and take profit sent as an exchange bracket. Trading starts switched off.

Paper trading is always active. Turn Delta off to hide it everywhere. Run both to compare paper against Delta on the same signals.

Market data

Price feed when Delta is not active

What is sent: computed numbers and findings only (market, system, and with the switch above trades, positions and account figures). Never API keys, secrets or order ids. After a 429 (rate limit) TB-AI waits as long as Mistral asks, doubling from 5 to 60 minutes. Insights and the playbook work without AI.

Max trails

Daily loss limit per broker

Max loss per day %

Of equity at the start of the day. 0 = off.

Trading day starts

When a broker's equity falls this far below where it started the day, every position on that broker is closed at market and it opens nothing more — signals or manual — until the next day. Other brokers carry on. You can resume early from the Overview page.

Safety

Paper trades by default. Delta trading is off at every start and switches off whenever the Delta account or keys change.

Switching to Delta live asks you to type I UNDERSTAND THIS IS REAL MONEY.
