Responsible trading
Trading should be enjoyable. QipQop Trader takes the mental health of our traders seriously — we give you the tools to stay in control.
Tools available to you
Daily loss limit
Set a maximum you're willing to lose in any 24-hour window. Once you hit it, new trades are blocked until tomorrow.
Session time limit
After trading continuously for 2 hours, a break reminder appears. You can dismiss or take the break. Either way: you noticed.
Deposit cap
Set a maximum deposit amount per day. Useful if you find yourself funding your account more than intended.
Cool-off period
Lock yourself out for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Existing positions settle normally; no new trades during the cool-off.
Self-exclusion
A permanent lockout option. Once requested, we cannot re-open your account even if you ask — we take your decision seriously.
Demo mode
Switch back to demo mode any time. Practice new strategies without real-money risk. Reset your demo balance to $10,000 whenever you want.
Signs you might need a break
- You're trading to recover a loss rather than to enjoy the market.
- You're staking more than you planned to.
- You're hiding your trading from family or friends.
- You're using money meant for bills, rent, or essentials.
- You feel anxious, guilty, or restless when not trading.
- You're borrowing money to trade.
If any of these apply, we strongly recommend enabling a cool-off period or reaching out for support.
