I am really struggling to understand why this is not working right for me. I must be doing something wrong or really stupid. First, I have 600 loss target but doesn't seem to work. I am attaching an image (JPG and PNG as SC images can't be selected when I am choosing to see this window). can someone help if these settings are correct to lock my trading for the day once I reach my limit? (of course, unless I intervene manually)and is there a way that I can't even intervene? Second, I am not sure I understand "Trail Daily net profit", can someone just give an example or two? I want to have a target of 1200 and once I lose more than 300 of that it is locked as Loss management? I know there is documentation but couldn't understand the explanation (probably it is just me being stupid) Thank you |

Good. It is also important to read over the Introduction section here to understand how the net profit/loss is arrived at and to make sure the calculations are correct: Global Profit/Loss Management: Introduction Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
