Live TopStep rule dashboard

The maximum loss limit, the trailing maximum drawdown, the minimum trading days, the consistency target. All four TopStep rules are tracked in real time, with a green-yellow-red status indicator and a number you can actually look at before each entry.

Trailing drawdown that does the math for you

TopStep's trailing maximum drawdown is the rule that disqualifies the most traders, because it follows your end-of-day balance up but does not follow it back down. Profit AI tracks the trailing high-water mark and the remaining buffer to the minute, so you always know exactly how far you can lose today before stopping out.

Pre-trade size guard for futures contracts

Enter your stop and Profit AI tells you the maximum contract size that keeps a worst-case loss inside today's daily loss buffer. Built for ES, NQ, RTY, YM, CL, GC, and every TopStep-allowed futures contract.

What is a TopStep trading journal?

A TopStep trading journal is a trade log designed around TopStep's specific rules. The maximum loss limit, the trailing maximum drawdown, the minimum trading days, the consistency target on funded accounts. Rather than a generic journal that ignores the rules and lets you blow a Trading Combine without warning.

Why generic journals fail TopStep traders

TopStep traders blow their Trading Combine in one of three ways: hitting the daily loss limit on a tilt session, breaching the trailing maximum drawdown after a profitable day, or violating the consistency target on funded accounts. A generic journal sees a losing day. The TopStep journal sees how many dollars are left before the account closes. Profit AI is built around that distinction.

How Profit AI's TopStep journal works

Connect your TopStep account via Tradovate, NinjaTrader, or your TopStep dashboard credentials. Every fill is auto-imported within seconds.
Select your account size ($50k, $100k, $150k). Profit AI loads the corresponding rule set automatically.
The dashboard shows live progress on max daily loss, trailing maximum drawdown, minimum trading days, and the consistency target.
Before you place a trade, the pre-trade size guard tells you the maximum contracts that keep a worst-case stop-out inside today's buffer.
Every week the AI writes a plain-English review: what setups paid, what behaviors cost you, what to fix on the next Combine attempt.

The consistency target on funded accounts

On TopStep's funded accounts, the consistency target requires that no single trading day make up more than a specified percentage of total profit. It silently disqualifies traders who would otherwise have passed. Profit AI tracks the single-best-day percentage across every trading day and flags it the moment you are at risk. A green-yellow-red indicator means you do not have to do the math after every session. The journal does it.

Frequently asked questions

Does TopStep have its own trading journal?+

The TopStep dashboard shows trade history and rule progress. It is not a full journal. No setup tagging, no AI-written reviews, no behavioral leak detection, and no pre-trade size guard. Profit AI fills that gap.

Does Profit AI auto-sync my TopStep account?+

Yes. Connect once via your TopStep dashboard credentials (or your Tradovate / NinjaTrader account) and every fill imports within seconds. Both Trading Combine and funded accounts are supported.

Will Profit AI warn me before I break a TopStep rule?+

Yes. The dashboard shows live distance from max daily loss and trailing maximum drawdown. The pre-trade size guard warns you if a worst-case stop-out would breach the daily limit. On funded accounts, consistency target risk is flagged daily.

Does it support every TopStep account size?+

Yes. $50k, $100k, $150k Combines and funded accounts are all supported. Profit AI loads the corresponding rule set when you select the account size.
