What are pre-trade risk guardrails?

Pre-trade risk guardrails are automated checks that analyse position sizing, leverage, and portfolio impact before you place a trade. PortoAI's guardrails connect to your Zerodha broker account and evaluate every trade idea against your current holdings and risk profile. The system checks five areas: position sizing relative to your risk rules, portfolio impact including concentration and sector exposure changes, leverage and margin safety especially for F&O trades (aligned with SEBI's margin and position limit framework), behavioural cooldowns after loss streaks or overtrading patterns, and red flag overlays combining unusual volume or governance alerts with your existing exposure. Guardrails do not block trades — they surface the risks so you can decide with full context. Every order still requires your explicit confirmation inside your broker. This approach is particularly valuable for options traders and active traders on NSE who need systematic risk discipline without giving up control of their trading decisions.

What we check

Five checks before every trade

01

Position sizing & stop planning

Compute size bands around your risk rules so you avoid oversized bets and random stops.

02

Portfolio impact

See concentration changes, overlap, and how a new trade shifts your sector and factor exposure.

03

Leverage sanity checks

Catch when leverage, margin usage, or volatility makes a trade fragile. Especially in F&O.

04

Behaviour cooldowns

Get nudged to pause after loss streaks, late-day flurries, or revenge-trade patterns.

05

Red flag overlay

Combine risk signals (unusual volume, governance alerts) with your own position before you act.

PortoAI requests read-only access. Your broker stays in your control and you confirm every order yourself.

Spent two hours researching a stock last month. This week I asked PortoAI about a similar company and had everything in two minutes. Revenue, margins, peer comparison, and whether it even fits my portfolio. I'm not going back to doing it manually.

Bad day, portfolio deep red, I was about to double down on a losing position. Got a revenge trade warning. I was annoyed but I closed the app and went for a walk. That stock dropped for another week straight.

I used to keep Screener, TradingView, and Zerodha open in three tabs. Now I just ask PortoAI. Fundamentals, technicals, risk check, place the order. Haven't opened Screener in weeks.
