Benefits

Fully automated. You do not have to sit and watch the screen — limits close the book and block new trades when they hit.

  • Fully automated

    Engine watches Kite P&L and acts when your rules fire — no babysitting.

  • Auto killswitch on limit hit

    Loss, profit, orders, time, or lock-profit — closes the book for you.

  • Expiry blocking

    Block one expiry; still trade other expiries freely.

  • Protect capital

    Rules fire before emotion takes over mid-drawdown.

Features

The main controls — automated limits, plus manual killswitch when you want it.

  • Live dashboard. Net P&L, today's orders, and open positions — updating about once a second.
  • Also manually enable killswitch. Flip it on yourself for one segment or all open segments (equity, F&O, commodity) whenever you want out — not only on automatic limits.
  • Daily loss & profit limits. Auto-stop at your loss cap or profit target.
  • Order / position cap. Stop after too many completed orders plus open positions.
  • Time killswitch (IST). Once-a-day clock cutoff so the session ends on your schedule.
  • Lock profit. Trailing floor under P&L so a winning day cannot give it all back.
  • Flat book, then Console killswitch. Cancels pending, market-exits positions, then presses Console killswitch only when flat.
  • Expiry blocking. Block one expiry; keep trading other expiries.
  • Strict mode. Lock settings for a week, two weeks, or a month.

Zerodha risk management software for Kite traders

Zerodha Risk Management by KillSwitch is built for traders who use Zerodha Kite and need a reliable way to enforce daily loss limits, profit targets, and trade caps. Instead of relying on willpower after a bad fill, the local app watches your day P&L and can shut trading down when a limit you set is hit.

If you search for a Zerodha kill switch, Kite risk management tool, or automatic square-off for Zerodha F&O, this license is designed for that workflow: live monitoring, automatic limits, and Console killswitch action after the book is flat.

Daily loss limit and profit target on Zerodha

Day traders on Zerodha often plan a max loss and a profit booking level — then break both when the market moves fast. ZRM KillSwitch can stop at a daily loss, stop at a daily profit, stop after too many completed orders plus open positions, or stop at a clock time in IST once a day.

Lock profit adds a trailing floor under your P&L so a winning Zerodha session cannot give everything back. When any of those rules fire, pending orders are cancelled, open positions are exited at market, and the Console killswitch is pressed only after the book is flat.

Expiry blocking and segment killswitch for F&O

Options and futures traders on Zerodha often need to block a specific expiry while continuing to trade other expiries. Expiry blocking lets you freeze one expiry without locking your entire book. You can also run a manual killswitch for one segment or for all open segments — equity, F&O, and commodity.

Market hours follow equity 9:00–3:30 IST on trading days, with an optional commodity session after 3:30. Strict mode can lock settings for a week, two weeks, or a month so you cannot loosen limits mid-session when emotions are high.

Lifetime Zerodha kill switch license — one-time payment

This is a lifetime software license with a one-time payment. The app runs on your own server or machine, with one login for Kite and Zerodha Console so the killswitch can actually execute. An API console shows what the app called today for full transparency.

Whether you call it Zerodha risk management, a Kite kill switch, or automated trading discipline for Indian markets — the goal is the same: protect capital when limits are hit, without sitting on the screen all day.
