Hi there,

I love the GlobalProfitLossManagement feature where you can control your Profit or Loss conditions to flatten positions. This is super important to Risk Management without having manual intervention.

However, I was wondering if it is possible to set a password to protect the GlobalProfitLossManagement page from being modified after trading has been locked?

There have been numerous occurrences I have seen where if trading was locked for the day from hitting max loss, I could simply go into the GlobalProfitLossManagement page and unlock my trading account to keep trading thus not helping me stick to my risk management rules. Being able to have a significant other set the password would be amazing to maintain discipline.

If Sierra Chart doesn't offer password protection to the GlobalProfitLossManagement page, is it possible for Sierra Chart to enforce these rules from your side?

Thank you,

Brian

What we are planning to offer with our Sierra Chart order routing service, is a server-side implementation of this which can be set by your broker.

The Teton Order Routing service has a "Server-Side Global Profit/Loss Management" that will lock you out until the next trading day if you hit the limits.

But, right now the only broker/clearing firm offering it is Stage 5 with Advantage for clearing.

It is also available with the Simulated Futures Trading Service that we offer.
