Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about Kōda.
What is Kōda?
Kōda is a trading journal that measures your behaviour, trade by trade. Tag each trade
followed my plan or
broke it and you get a free Discipline Score, A+ to F. It also has a tilt check: tap Log Trade after consecutive losses, near your daily limit, or with a tilt-emotion tag on your last entry, and a pause sheet opens before the form.
Read how the tilt check works.
How does the tilt check know I'm tilting?
Five signals drawn from your own logged activity: consecutive losses today, percent of your daily loss limit hit, daily trade cap reached, tapping Log within 10 minutes of a Loss, and tilt-emotion tags on your last trade (FOMO, revenge, chased, moved-SL, overtrading). Any one critical signal or any two non-critical signals fires the tilt check. No model. No broker API. No guess.
Can I turn the tilt check off or adjust the cooldown?
Yes. Settings → Discipline. Anyone can switch it off. The cooldown that starts when you tap Cancel is 15 minutes; on Pro you can set it to Off, 5, 15, or 30 minutes.
Is my trade data private?
Yes. Your trades, intervention events, and all journal data are stored in your private Supabase row-level-security partition. Only you can read your own data. No public profiles by default.
What's the difference between Free, Pro and Kōda Edge?
Free gives you unlimited trade logging, the full stats dashboard, the tilt intervention, Discipline Score, prop firm eval tracker, Ideas feed, auto-sync for crypto wallets (cTrader sync is in testing), Replay (10 practice trades a day on real ES & NQ charts), access to the Kōda global Circle plus two more Circles of your own (each joined or created Circle counts as one), and the iOS/Android PWA. Your journal is also encrypted at rest, meaning your trades and notes are stored encrypted on the database server's disk.
Pro — £9.99/mo or £79.99/yr (£6.67/mo annual, saving £39) adds a rule-by-rule breakdown of why your Discipline Score drops, unlimited Trading Circles, unlimited Replay, advanced analytics (heatmaps, drawdown curves), custom strategy slots, weekly digest emails, email support, encryption at rest, one snapshot backup of your data every 3 days, and the ability to request a restore from any of those backups.
Kōda Edge — £24.99/mo or £249.99/yr (£20.83/mo annual, saving £49) is the encrypted tier. Everything in Pro, plus 5 retained backups — 3 daily local snapshots and 2 offsite backups every 3 days — plus a monthly cold-storage archive. Email support is included. Edge also unlocks end-to-end encryption for your journal: every trade is encrypted on your device with a password only you know, and Kōda's servers store only ciphertext — we cannot read what you trade or what you write. Auto-sync still works: synced trades are sealed on your device when you open Kōda. Screenshots and anything you share to a Circle stay outside the encryption. If you lose both your encryption password and your recovery key, nobody — including us — can recover your journal.
What does end-to-end encryption actually protect?
Every field of every trade — instrument, prices, P&L, outcome, strategy, notes, emotions, mistakes and rule checks — is encrypted in your browser before it is saved, using a key derived from an encryption password that Kōda never stores. Our servers hold ciphertext. What stays outside: your screenshots (stored privately but not encrypted), anything you deliberately share to a Circle or copy into your Mentor journal, and the fact that you logged a trade at a given time. Encryption is optional, Edge-only, and turned on by you in Settings. Your encryption password is separate from your login password; resetting your login password does not touch it. You get a one-time recovery key when you turn it on — if you lose both, we cannot help, by design. Backups keep working: we restore the encrypted data and you unlock it.
How do I import trades from my broker?
Go to Home → Sync. Crypto: paste your wallet's public address (no keys, no logins) and trades from Hyperliquid, Jupiter, dYdX, GMX, Lighter and the main Solana trading apps sync in as drafts for you to review. Futures and forex: CSV import works for eight broker formats: Tradovate, Rithmic, TradingView, MT4, MT5, NinjaTrader 8, TopstepX, and FTMO. cTrader: sync is in testing with a small group and opens to everyone once it's reliable.
Does Kōda support futures?
Yes — futures-first. The Lot Size Calculator includes full specs for ES, NQ, MES, MNQ, CL, GC and 11 other contracts. The journal tracks R-multiples and dollar P&L. Prop firm eval mode is purpose-built for Apex, TopStep, and FTMO traders.
How do Trading Circles work?
Circles are private groups where traders share journals, run weekly challenges, and compete on leaderboards. You can join by code, share a link, or create your own. Real-time chat, push notifications, and accountability built in.
Is Kōda a mobile app?
Kōda is a Progressive Web App (PWA) — installable on iOS and Android from your browser, works offline, no app-store middleman. Add to Home Screen on iOS or Install from Chrome menu on Android.
Can I cancel my Pro or Edge subscription?
Yes, any time from Settings → Billing. Your paid access continues until the end of the billing period.
