Risk limits

Risk rules are guardrails on how much you can lose or risk. The app can track them, but they only become enforced limits once you configure real prop-firm rules — otherwise this is purely educational.

Concept

Guardrails, not handcuffs

A risk rule fixes the most you can lose or risk before emotion gets a vote. It does not predict the market — it simply guarantees that no single trade or day can do irreparable damage.

Warning

In this app these limits are educational until you configure real prop-firm rules in Compliance. A rule you can silently override is not a rule — decide it once, then respect it.
