Make personal daily loss limit un-changeable
In order to maximize the benefit of the personal loss limit, I dont think that we should be able to change it once a new session has started.
If a trader is already struggling with discipline, its too easy to just adjust the loss limit once we are nearing it.
We have an hour to make adjustments between sessions, I think thats sufficient. Once the new session has started, it shouldnt be able to be adjusted.
Also, if copy trading, it looks like it only locks you out of the lead account, not the others. Can we make it so it applies to all accounts, or, the ones that we select?

After removing Daily loss limit, this is the most important feature we need. Deal breaker. Must have. Please Make personal daily loss limit un-changeable once set by the user atleast for the rest of the session

Agreed. I was going to post the same thing.. It’s too easy to just say screw it, I’m at 1000 already, just adjust it to 2000. I know, we should be disciplined enough to do it on our own, but sometimes we are our own worst enemy!!

At least allow an adjustment of the PDLL before the first trade of the day. Once a trade begins, do not allow the change.

This is a must have feature. I completely agree, personal daily loss limit MUST BE un-changeable for the rest of the session . This feature is “THE BIGGEST SELLING POINT” of TOPSTEP X. Please make this High priority.

Just delay any adjustment until end of day. Problem solved.

In fact the DLL (being a positive number actually) should only be lowered not increased when the session has started. Sometimes I am tilting and when I have some gains, I lower the DLL to 1 in order not to lose more than 1. This way of managing my risk allows me to lose only a little when I start a session by winning.
Suppose I am up 300 at the beginning of a session, I would like to have the possibility to set the DLL to a number of 100 in order to keep at least 100 of my profits.
DLL should be a negative number for a loss limit and a positive number for a lock of profits. -300 would mean I don’t want to lose more than 300 for the day on this account. +200 would mean I want to keep at least 200 of my daily profits for this account.

I Change the PLL to be able to kind of trail it while I make profit.
So this feature would be nice if they create the trailling PLL.

As in a Profit Loss Limit? Like a Trailing Lock your Profits in feature? Similar to the Lockout feature but instead a “Lockin-Profit’ feature so one can secure any amount of profits they have earned during that trading session?

Guys, any update on this? TOPSTEP has always been the firm which looks for traders best interests. For the first time, its starting to feel like Topstep is falling behind competition. My funded futures has already implemented this with dxfeed risk controls which are unchangeable once set. Why are you guys taking so much time? This is a must have feature
