VTX Macro, Now As A Windows App

Windows users can now use VTX Macro from a dedicated desktop app instead of keeping a browser tab open. The app uses the same account, profiles, routes, settings, and runtime experience as the web version, so there is no separate desktop setup for Trade, AI, Screener, Billing, Security, or System settings.

A new Download page introduces the Windows app and routes users to the installer when it is available. When running inside the desktop app, the Download navigation item is hidden, keeping the app focused on the workspace you already installed.

Signing in is designed around the browser session users already trust. From VTX Macro Desktop, users can choose “Continue in browser,” authorize the desktop request, then return to the app signed in.

Desktop Controls In System Settings

When VTX Macro is running as the desktop app, the System page now shows a Desktop App card with local Windows behavior controls:

• Start with Windows
• Start minimized
• Keep running in the tray when closed
• Check for desktop updates

These settings apply only to the installed app on the current device, while trading and AI settings remain shared with the normal VTX Macro profile experience.

Clearer Security For Desktop Sessions

Security settings now identify desktop sessions as VTX Macro Desktop on Windows instead of showing them as a generic browser session. Users can revoke those desktop sessions from the same Sessions card used for other account sessions.

More Precise AI Performance Guardrails

The AI performance panel now gives each performance metric its own Soft or Hard enforcement mode. Instead of applying one enforcement posture to an entire short-term or long-term panel, users can tune individual guardrails such as Max Flip Rate, Min Hold Time, Max Fee/Equity, Max Drawdown %, Max Loss %, and Max Loss Count.

This release also adds Max Loss % as a separate risk guardrail. Max Drawdown % measures loss from an in-window peak, while Max Loss % measures decline from the first available equity snapshot in the rolling window to current equity. That gives users another way to control short-term and long-term downside behavior.

Smoother Client-Mode Runtime Behavior

Client-mode runtime handling has been strengthened for desktop and browser users. VTX Macro now does more to recover active client-mode profiles, reflect same-device runtime activity accurately, and avoid confusing inactive states during handoffs or mode switches.

Trade chart loading also waits more carefully for authenticated profile state, reducing transient flashes or resets while profile-specific preferences are still resolving.

A Cleaner, More Focused App

This update continues the move toward one shared VTX Macro experience across web and desktop. Profile-scoped pages now carry stable titles for desktop window mirroring, the navigation includes Download where appropriate, and older legacy/test-only Trade and model settings pages have been removed from the user-facing app surface.
