Position Brackets
How to Position Brackets
Apply Position Bracket settings to close out the position if the Risk or Profit trigger is hit. To apply the Risk and Profit brackets, enter your Risk and/or Profit dollar-based values. Check the “Automatically apply Risk / Profit bracket to new Positions” box to activate the feature.
NOTE: Position Brackets are now enabled on a per-account basis. When setting and saving your Position Bracket settings, they will only apply to the account selected.
Stop Loss and Take Profit brackets can also be applied to open positions when the default brackets are not enabled. To do this, simply click the position indicator on the chart and drag it up or down to create a TP (Take Profit bracket) or SL (Stop Loss bracket).
Bracket Order Types
Risk Bracket Orders are entered as Stop Market Orders; they will execute once the set stop price is reached, ensuring the trade goes through but not at a guaranteed price.
Take Profit Orders are entered as Limit Orders; if the market price hits your limit price, the order is executed, guaranteeing the price but not the execution.
Lock-Out Customizations
Lock-Out
The Lock-Out feature is designed to help traders take control of their trading activity by locking themselves out of trading for a specified duration or trading session. This feature allows you to step away from the markets, maintain discipline, and manage risk effectively.

Select Your Lock-Out Duration:
New York Session (7:00 AM - 4:00 PM CT)
London Session (2:00 AM - 11:00 AM CT)

Sydney Session (4:00 PM - 1:00 AM CT)
Choose from one of the following pre-defined options:
15 minutes

Alternatively, create a Custom lock-out time by selecting the end time that suits your needs.
