UPSTOX
KILL SWITCH

Upstox Pro is a great platform — but it has no kill switch. TradeGuard connects via Upstox API and automatically stops your F&O trading when loss limits, trade counts, or time rules are breached. Upstox is now live — get started and connect your Upstox account in under 2 minutes. Free 4-day trial with Dhan · ₹999/mo for Upstox.

Upstox Pro offers fast execution, good F&O analytics, and low brokerage. But like every discount broker in India, it has no automatic daily loss limit — no rule-based kill switch that stops trading when you've had a bad morning or when you've overtraded. TradeGuard adds exactly that layer of protection.

The integration works via the official Upstox API v2. Once connected, TradeGuard monitors your Upstox account in real time using WebSocket feeds and 5-second polling. When any of your configured rules are breached — the kill switch fires, positions are squared off, and your account is locked for the rest of the trading day.

6 RULES FOR
UPSTOX TRADERS

1

Daily Loss Limit

Stop trading when you're down ₹2,000, ₹5,000 or any amount you set. Never let a bad trade turn into a blown account on Upstox.

2

Profit Target Lock

Hit ₹8,000 profit? Account locks. No more temptation to trade "just a bit more" and give back your gains.

3

Max Trades Per Day

Cap daily trades at 8, 10, or 15. The most direct fix for overtrading — once you hit the limit, no more trades on Upstox that day.

4

Time-Based Stop

Automatically lock at 1:30 PM, 2:00 PM, or any time. Avoid the dangerous expiry-hour volatility without needing willpower.

5

Day-Based Block

Block trading every Thursday (BankNifty expiry) or Mondays. Your weekly schedule, enforced by software.

6

Specific Date Lock

Lock RBI policy days and Budget Day months in advance. When the dangerous day arrives, protection is already in place.

FAQ

No. TradeGuard is an independent product that integrates with Upstox via the official Upstox API v2. TradeGuard is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a product of Upstox/RKSV Securities.
TradeGuard monitors your Upstox account at the API level — regardless of which platform you're trading on (web, iOS, Android). The kill switch fires via API and affects your account directly, not just one interface.
TradeGuard monitors via WebSocket (real-time order feed) plus 5-second polling as fallback. Rule breaches are detected and the kill switch fires within 5–15 seconds of the breach event in most cases.
