Hi SC,

Currently SC shows TrailAccountValueToLimitPosition column in the Trade Account Monitor for an evaluation/simulation account, and increasing positions is not allowed when the real-time account value is below the TrailAccountValueToLimitPosition, but trading is still allowed. Can you please add an option in the account editor to disable trading and automatically liquidate the account when this condition is triggered? This will be exactly the same as the so called Trailing Max Drawdown. Thank you.
