Lesson 13 of 27, 7 min video

Protection and limits: what the program does by itself

What happens if the internet drops, the server reboots, the broker starts rejecting orders or the price moves over the weekend. What the program does in such cases by itself, and the two limits at which it stops without waiting for you.

What's inside
  • The emergency stop at the broker: what closes the trade when the program is off
  • Positions from the previous run
  • A pause instead of a stop: a lost connection, broker rejections, slow execution
  • The Friday cutoff before the weekend
  • Two account limits: Target equity and Max drawdown
  • A check on the test account: a stop by the target equity
  • Trainer: the limits on one session of equity
