Hi Sierra Team

Hope you’re well.

I am constantly trying to improve my intraday scalping trades and have over 2 years experience trading in the crypto currency markets using VWAP, market profile and order flow. My entries are institutional and my daily gains are over 250% however I still have not adopted the best risk management strategy.

Whilst I am within the trade I always aim to exit at 2SD however I then re-enter and execute a short position and unfortunately due to the highly volatile nature of the crypto markets, I liquidate my balances on a regular basis due to re-entering for a short too early

It’s very easy for me to close my position and re-enter on a lot of exchanges such as Binance, Bitmex and Bybit.

Would it be possible to permanently remove my ability to open sell market and limit orders. I know I can turn off but I want to remove it fully so I can then connect an API that will only allow me to enter a long position and will automatically exit at my desired profit target and with pre-determined parameters.

Kind Regards,
Rahim
