Risk Manager

Use Risk Manager to protect your accounts with Smart StopOut, drawdown limits, and account-level safety controls.

Overview

Risk Manager helps you reduce damage when an account moves against you. You can review protected accounts, see whether protection is active, and set a maximum drawdown rule before losses become unacceptable.

What Risk Manager does

It protects your account by watching equity and applying your stop-out rule when the selected drawdown level is reached.

What you control

You choose the drawdown amount, decide whether to use percentage or USDT, and apply the rule to the account you want to protect.

How to use Risk Manager

This is the normal client flow from opening the page to saving Smart StopOut.

Open Risk Manager

Go to the left sidebar and open Risk Manager.

Review your accounts

In the accounts list, find the account you want to protect and check its current MaxDD, Equity, and Total.

Open the edit menu

Click the three-dot menu on the right side of the account row.

Choose Smart StopOut

Select Smart StopOut to open the account protection modal.

Choose the unit

Use % when you want a relative drawdown limit, or use USDT when you want a fixed absolute amount.

Enter your maximum drawdown

Type the maximum loss you are willing to allow before protection is triggered.

Review the stop-out level

Check Starting equity and the calculated Stop-out equity before saving.

Save changes

Click Save changes to activate or update the protection rule for that account.

What you see on the Risk Manager page

This page shows the main layout your client works with before editing any protection rules.

Risk Manager

Global protection

Use Risk Manager to protect your connected accounts from excessive equity loss. You can review account status, open the edit menu, and configure Smart StopOut on selected accounts.

Protection tools are available for supported accounts.

The page starts with the Risk Manager heading, then shows your protection area and account list. Use the account table to identify which account is already protected and which one still says Not active.

Understand the accounts table

The accounts table is where you monitor protection status account by account.

When protection is active

You will see a value in the MaxDD column, such as 12 % or 500 USDT.

When protection is not active

The row may show Not active in the MaxDD column. This means Smart StopOut is not currently enabled for that account.

Edit Smart StopOut

This is the main protection modal used to set the account’s maximum drawdown.

Set your account’s maximum equity drawdown. When this level is reached, positions are closed and new orders are blocked.

Tip: Use % for flexible protection across different account sizes. Use USDT when you want an absolute stop level.

Use % when

You want the same rule to scale with account size
You prefer relative protection instead of a fixed amount
You work with accounts that may grow or shrink over time

Use USDT when

You want a fixed maximum loss amount
You know the exact dollar value you want to protect
You don’t want the rule to depend on account size

What happens after protection is triggered

When the account reaches the configured stop-out level, Risk Manager acts to reduce further damage.

Positions are closed

The account closes active positions once the configured equity threshold is reached.

New orders are blocked

New orders should no longer be allowed after the stop-out rule has been triggered for that account.

Important: Risk Manager is a protection tool, not a profit tool. Use it to limit damage, not to replace careful position sizing and risk planning.

Best practices

These recommendations help you use Risk Manager more safely and clearly.

Set a drawdown limit before you need it, not after losses begin.

Use percentage for flexible account protection across different balances.

Use USDT when you have a fixed loss amount in mind.

Review the starting equity and stop-out equity before saving.

Check account rows regularly to confirm protection is still active.

Use Risk Manager together with disciplined strategy sizing and capital allocation.

Common mistakes

These are the most common things clients should avoid.

Saving a drawdown value without checking whether the unit is % or USDT.

Assuming “Not active” means the account is already protected.

Using an extremely small drawdown value that triggers too quickly.

Ignoring the difference between starting equity and stop-out equity.

Forgetting to review protection after account balance changes significantly.

Treating Risk Manager as a substitute for proper risk discipline.
