The honest answer
Evaluations aren't lost on one trade. They're lost on a pattern.
It rarely feels like a slow build in the moment. One red day, one revenge sequence, and the trailing drawdown closes the door. But when you chart the whole account, the breach is almost never a single catastrophic trade — it's a repeating behavior you couldn't see while you were inside it.
The most common shape: a few solid trades early, confidence creeps in, size goes up. A loss hits. You size up again to win it back. A cluster of fast, impulsive entries follows — and that cluster is what walks the account into the daily loss limit or the trailing drawdown line. The damage is behavioral, and behavior leaves a trail in your data.
What the audit finds
The four patterns that quietly breach most accounts
These are the exact behaviors the analyzer reconstructs from the size, timing, and P&L of every trade in your export.
The walk into the breach
Your equity curve rebuilt trade by trade, with the exact sequence that crossed your daily loss limit or trailing drawdown highlighted.
Revenge sizing
Every time your position size jumped right after a losing trade — the tilt signature that turns a bad trade into a blown account.
Impulsive entries
Trades held seconds, not minutes — the fast, reactive clicks that cluster when discipline slips and chop punishes hardest.
Over-leverage
Where your contract size drifted past your own risk limit, flagged against the rest of your session for context.

Common questions
Before you upload
Why do I keep hitting my daily loss limit? +
Almost always because losses cluster, not because of position direction. After a losing trade, sizing up or firing off fast revenge entries compounds the damage quickly — and the daily loss limit is hit during that cluster, not on the first red trade. The audit shows you exactly where your clusters form so you can see the trigger.
Can I analyze my Topstep trade history CSV? +
Yes. Export your trade history from TopstepX as a CSV and upload it. The analyzer reads each trade's size, duration, and P&L to rebuild your equity curve and flag the trades that breached the account. The free preview shows the findings before you decide to unlock the full report.
How do I stop overtrading on my next attempt? +
The first step is seeing your own pattern in hard data rather than from memory. The recovery report identifies your specific overtrading triggers — the time of day, the loss size, the sequence — so the changes you make before your next evaluation are aimed at your real behavior, not generic advice.
How much does it cost? +
The scan and locked preview are free. Unlocking the full recovery report and PDF is a one-time $19 through Stripe — no subscription, no recurring charge.
