I’m trying to understand the difference between using “Trading Locked and setting limits through Global Profit/Loss Management (daily loss limit). When I use Trading Locked, I expected trading to remain disabled for the rest of the session. However, I noticed I can manually unlock it afterward. With Global P/L Management, it seems like trading is automatically restricted once a daily loss threshold is hit. So my questions are: What is the functional difference between these two features? Is Trading Locked intended to be manually reversible, whereas the daily loss limit is enforced automatically? In practice, is using Trading Locked essentially the same as switching to SIM trading if I want to stop trading for the day? I want to make sure I’m using the correct tool for enforcing discipline around daily loss limits. |
