Risk-managed trading terminal
Rules you set. Enforced before the order leaves.
Roaraq sits between you and your broker. Every order is checked against your own limits: position size, daily loss, leverage, re-entry. An order that breaks a rule does not go.
14 days free. No card. A demo broker is included so nothing is at risk while you set up.
Your broker executes and holds custody. Roaraq only sends the orders you approve.

How an order travels
Four stations. One rule check you cannot skip.
- 01
You write the rule as a sentence
Block a buy that would take one symbol above 10% of my equity. Pause new positions after a 2% daily loss for 120 minutes. Fourteen rules, each one a sentence with your numbers in it.
- 02
Every order is checked before it leaves
The ticket runs your rules against your account as it is right now, at the estimated fill price. Pass, warn or block. A block is one sentence with the numbers.
Under 800 ms
- 03
Your broker fills it
Roaraq submits the order to your broker and stores the response verbatim. Custody, execution and statements stay where they are.
- 04
The account is re-checked after every sync
Positions and fills come back and the rules run again on what actually happened. Trades placed outside Roaraq are found and journaled as unguarded. Loss limits arm cooldowns.
Every 60 s in market hours
The rules

What Roaraq is not
Not a broker
Not a real-time hard limit
Not advice
Built like a ledger
Every decision leaves a row.
Append-only
Snapshots, fills, blocks and the audit log are never updated or deleted. Corrections are new rows. History is reconstructible to the minute.
Every block has a reason
One sentence with the numbers, stored with the version of the rule that produced it and the account state it saw.
The escape hatch is always open
Every screen links to your broker. A rule can stop an order in Roaraq; it can never lock you out of your own account.
Pricing
One plan. $39 a month, or $390 a year.
14-day trial with the demo broker and every rule. No card until you decide.
