Hi, I have been trying to set a daily loss limit of 10 Points per day. I tried this setting. I am not sure if it is in effect. Please confirm.
Thank you.

The values that are entered in the Profit/Loss Management are in currency values. You need to convert your goal in points to currency and enter that value. Refer to the information here:

Okay lets say I did it for currency, why did it not stop after $10?. I was down far more than $10 in that screenshot.

Thank you

Provide a screenshot again of the Global Profit/Loss Management Window because it does not show any Trade Accounts listed. Therefore, it would not have any effect.
