Risk Management
Control how much the trading system is allowed to risk.
Risk Settings
These settings will be enforced by the paper trading system.
How MyTrader Will Use These Limits
Maximum Position: MyTrader will prevent adding to a position when the resulting position would exceed the allowed percentage of the portfolio.
Maximum Trade: MyTrader will prevent a single BUY order from exceeding the configured percentage of the portfolio.
Maximum Daily Loss: MyTrader will stop allowing new trades when the daily loss reaches the configured limit.
Stop Loss: This setting will later be used by the automated trading engine to determine when a position should be considered for an automatic protective sell.
Existing positions will not be automatically liquidated merely because you lower a risk setting. The restriction will apply to new trades and additional purchases.
