Personal Lockouts

Updated over a week ago

Personal lockouts are trader-controlled restrictions that temporarily prevent order entry.

You can lock trading for a short cooldown (like 5 minutes) or for the entire trading day. They are useful after a loss, emotional spike, or rule break to avoid revenge trading. It acts as a built-in discipline tool to protect both capital and mindset.

  1. Click on the Padlock button in the top right hand corner (located directly above the DOM)

Personal Lockout Panel:

  1. This panel allows you to select a specific session you would like to lock yourself out. It also allows you to lock yourself out for a custom amount of hours.

  2. To lock out for a specific session, click your session and then press ‘SET LOCKOUT’.

  3. To lock out for a custom time, locate the box at the bottom, type in a custom amount of hours or select a predefined number and select ‘SET LOCKOUT’

  4. Once your lockout has been set, a blue box will appear in the bottom right of the screen letting you know that the settings have been applied. A timer will also appear in the top right.
