Failed Trader
Built for South African retail XAUUSD traders

Most traders fail. Find out why you do.

Log your closed gold trades or upload your MT4/MT5 statement, tag the emotion and mistake behind every trade in two taps on your phone, and see what FOMO, Revenge trading, or moving your stop actually costs you in rands.

Two-Tap Emotion & Mistake Tagging

Tag every trade with emotions (Calm, FOMO, Revenge, Fear, Greed, Boredom, Overconfidence) and mistakes (Moved stop, No stop, Oversized, Early exit, Chased entry, Broke my rules). See immediately: “Trades tagged Revenge: -R4,200”.

MT4 & MT5 HTML Statement Import

Export your MT5 report or MT4 detailed statement as HTML and upload it. We parse your closed trades, de-duplicate by ticket number, and queue untagged trades for rapid review.

ZAR Position Size & Risk Calculator

Enter your rand risk amount, entry, stop-loss, and contract size. Uses the daily ECB USD/ZAR rate (with manual override) and always rounds down to your broker lot step.
