Global Profit/Loss Management

Hello, I'm trying to set up the Global profit/loss Management but I'm probably missing something. I would like to set up just the Loss Management and lock the platform for the day once if I have reached the loss limit. Today the limit was reached and after my position was flatten, the platform allowed me to trade again ( luckily I was able to reduce the loss).

In the Global Profit/Loss Management on the left side i have checked Lock after Position Flattened, Lock For Day,
I have put the Loss trigger value and checked Flatten Position When Loss Rules Met.
What I am missing?
Thank you!

One problem we see is that the loss trigger value needs to be a negative value. Not positive.
