Evaluation risk management

A trade is judged twice: on its own P&L, and on what it does to the account’s distance from breach. Both are on screen at once.

​

Targets and breach levels

• Target: the profit level you need to reach, 10% above your starting balance. Only closed trades count toward it.
• Breach level: the equity at which your account breaches. It’s your max daily loss limit or your max loss limit, whichever is nearer.

An open position can shrink From breach in an instant, so size each trade against From breach, not just against the trade itself.

​

Managing an open position

A filled order is a position. Managing it is deciding how much exposure to keep while From breach stays above zero: let it run, close it, or leave the exit to a preset level. Close All, Close Longs, and Close Shorts cut exposure across several positions at once.

​

Using take profit and stop loss

Take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) are exit levels you set before you enter, so you don’t have to decide while price is moving. You can attach them when you place your order, so your entry and your exits are planned together. Both trigger on mark price, not last price, so a brief spike on the chart may not trigger them. Once triggered, the order fills at the average price available in the order book at that moment, which can be better or worse than your level.

​

How they fit together

From breach $2,400. A $50,000 position with a 1% stop risks $500 and leaves $1,900. A $200,000 position with the same stop risks $2,000, and one slipped fill breaches.
