Getting Started
Contact TradeRune via Discord DM to obtain your license key. Keys are device-bound (HWID) and valid for one machine. One license covers all your accounts on that device.
On first login with 0 trades, the Onboarding Wizard opens automatically:
Step 1: Name your portfolio
Step 2: Add your first trading account
Step 3: Log your first trade
This takes ~2 minutes. You can skip any step.
Click the theme icon (sun/moon) in the topbar. Your preference is saved automatically and follows your system setting by default.
There's a Mobile Companion page accessible from any phone browser. On mobile, the sidebar collapses to a hamburger menu automatically. Full native mobile apps are on the roadmap.
Accounts
Personal Real — Your own funded account
Prop-Firm Challenge — Active evaluation account (FTMO, Funded棠, etc.)
Each type gets different risk rules applied in Prop Firm Hub.
Yes. Add unlimited accounts from unlimited brokers. You can group them into Portfolios for organization. Use CSV Import or Broker API Sync to pull trades automatically.
Three options:
CSV Import — Upload CSV from MT4, MT5, TradingView, cTrader, Tradovate, IBKR, and 8+ platforms
Broker API Sync — Connect MT4/MT5 via MetaAPI for automatic trade mirroring
TradingView Webhook — Receive trade notifications via webhook
The system calculates this automatically when you enter entry/SL/TP prices.
The auto-grade checks your execution checklist (did you wait for confirmation? was news on your calendar?). Grades:
A+ — Perfect execution, no deviations
A — Solid execution with minor deviation
B — Subpar execution
C — Poor execution, significant deviation
F — Tilt/revenge trade
Track your grade vs P&L to find if higher grades correlate with wins.
Yes. Click any trade row → Edit icon. All changes are logged in the Audit Log. Deleted trades are soft-deleted and traceable.

The Compliance Lock blocks trade logging if you haven't completed your pre-trade checklist. Use it to enforce discipline. Toggle on/off from the Execution tab.
After passing evaluation, use Payout Tracker to log withdrawal requests. Track pending payouts, payment method, and history. Payout timing varies by firm (weekly/bi-weekly/monthly).
Security
Yes. Vault Encryption uses AES-256-GCM with a key derived from a 24-word BIP39 recovery phrase. Your data is encrypted locally before storage. Recovery phrase is the only way to decrypt.
Go to 2FA & Passkey in Security settings. Scan the QR code with any TOTP app (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password). Save your 10 recovery codes securely.
If Vault Encryption is enabled: use your 24-word recovery phrase to restore. If not enabled: your data lives in localStorage/SQLite WASM — backup to Google Drive regularly via Backup Manager.
Yes. Your license is tied to your Hardware ID (HWID) — a fingerprint from canvas + audio + user agent. One license = one device. Contact support to transfer to a new device.
Backup & Restore
Go to Backup & Restore → New Backup. Choose Full Dump (all trades + settings) or Incremental (changes only). Downloads a .rdb file.
Skip Existing (Safest) — only imports trades that don't exist in your current database. Your existing trades are preserved. Recommended for most users.
Overwrite All (Destructive) — wipes current database and replaces with backup state. Use only if you want a clean reset.
Yes. In Backup Manager, enable auto-backup and set frequency (daily, weekly). Incremental backups run in the background. Cloud sync to Google Drive is available when connected.
