Hi, I currently use Advantage as my FCM and they have made changes as to how they administer the auto liquidation threshold. I used to be able to use a specific dollar amount and the tool functioned properly. The new changes that they have made are as a percent of account size and it is anywhere from 50-60% of account size (possibly 80%). This makes the functionality of the tool obsolete. What are my options if I want to use a specific dollar amount rather than a percent of account size? Can this tool be administered by me and function the same way, by resetting for the next trading session 18:00:00 EST? Please advise. I would like to set the amount and if it triggers the auto liquidation then a reset occurs at the commencement of the next session (18:00:00 EST).

We plan on adding new settings for this for Teton order routing which can be controlled by the user.

Thanks. I would like to ask if a total amount of contracts for a predefined session (18:00:00-17:00:00 next day) can be added as a feature. This is a very helpful risk control parameter to avoid overtrading. I would be willing to help in the cost of development of this tool and some features in order to get the project into production as soon as possible. Please advise.

No, this particular functionality is not planned. We will see if it is not difficult to add.

Do you have any timeline for when a decision will be made? (Thanks. I would like to ask if a total amount of contracts for a predefined session (18:00:00-17:00:00 next day) can be added as a feature.
