How it works

10,000 USD with a 3% daily limit = 300 USD. At 1% risk per trade, each full loss is 100 USD, so 3 full losses reach the limit.

What to do with this number

Decide the limit before the session, not after the first loss.

If your limit allows only one or two losses, risk less per trade. That gives your plan more room on a normal day.

Discipline Guard shows "Loss today" on the panel and locks new trades when the limit is reached.
