This is an essential feature to enhance risk management tools.
Too often I find myself turning the PDLL off because I don’t want to be locked out for the day, it would greatly enhance flexibility if I can use say a $500- PDLL and if it hits liquidate and block, I want to option to block for 1h or 2hr etc. So that the entire day is not gone but you are also forced to step away.
I've successfully used the TPDLL feature. It allowed me to grow the account from 1500 realized to 2500 realized without risking more that 450 from my realized profits - Terrific - BUT - I just used the lockout my risk settings feature as I have been guilty of moving my PDLL during the day - another great feature, sadly, having activated the risk lockout, I find I won't be able to activate the TPDLL - I would only want to use that IF I achive a great day and don't want to give back too much but make the most of my market reading success on the day. So I don't want to turn it on now, but would like to enable it later. Can we EXCLUDE the activate TPDLL feature from the risk lockout please?

I am very upset that this is not a more useful feature. I was locked out on the day at $0 P/L because price returned to my entry point after I was in profit the amount of my PDLL. “That’s exactly what it’s supposed to do” you might retort. It’s a trailing stop on your order that locks you out for the day when it’s hit. If anything it should start trailing once I have realized profit. That would be helpful. Until then I cannot use it if I’m locking my risk setting for the day which is really a shame.

I agree, same thing just happened to me I was stopped out and locked on a trade that went to hit my TP and never got near my stop loss becuase it accumulated trailing draw down on another trade that was in draw down and went to hit TP. again no where near my SL. confusing feature.

PDLL changes should only be effective at end of day
Right now it’s too easy to move your PDLL like you would move a loss.

PDLL which I can close my access to at start of day
Can you add a lockout for the PDLL which stops me changing it during the day.
I want to set it before I start trading and lock the PDLL so I cannot increase it after taking a loss.

Can people upvote this and make it a feature? This is a must people who go on tilt.

Personal Daily Loss Limit unchanged
Ability to have 3 possibilities to change PDLL per month or something like that
I keep moving it myself like a moron!
It was much easier when I had no chance to change PDLL
