New! Position Brackets Are Now Account-Based!

What Changed?

Previously, when you enabled ProjectX Position Brackets, the same Risk (i.e., Stop Loss) and To Make (i.e., Take Profit) settings were applied globally across all of your trading accounts.

With this update, ProjectX Brackets are now account-based, meaning you can set up and save unique bracket configuration per account - giving you more flexibility and control over your trading strategies per account.

What Happens to My Current Settings

  • Upon release, your previous saved global bracket setup will apply as you last saved it

  • Any new changes you make to your Position Brackets will only apply to the account you have selected and are viewing 

What This Means for You

Before

Now

One global bracket setup applied to all accounts

Each account has its own bracket configuration

Changes to SL/TP affect all accounts

Changes to SL/TP only affect the selected account

Limited ability to trade multiple strategies

Full flexibility to tailor brackets per strategy or risk profile on each account

How to Use Account-Based Brackets

  1. Go to Settings -> Risk Settings

  2. Configure SL/TP: Enter your Risk (i.e., Stop Loss) and To Make (i.e., Take Profit) levels

  3. Enable ProjectX Brackets

  4. Save

Why This Matters

Many traders operate different strategies across accounts - such as scalping or long-term trend following. With account-based brackets, you can:

  • Maintain distinct configurations for funded vs. evaluations accounts

  • Avoid accidental overwrites of your preferred SL/TP setup when switching accounts
