The Discipline Kill-Switch" (Automated Daily Limits)

The Problem

​Emotional trading is the #1 killer of trading accounts. Even the best traders can lose control after a string of losses (revenge trading) or become overconfident after a big win (over-trading). Currently, there is no "hard stop" to prevent a user from breaking their own rules.

​The Proposed Solution

​A Daily Risk & Reward Lock-out system. This allows users to set hard limits on their daily performance. Once reached, the platform effectively "freezes" trading capabilities for that instrument or account until the next session.

​Key Functional Requirements

1. ​Hard Stop Limits:

   • ​Max Daily Loss (MDL): If the realized loss hits ₹X, all open positions are squared off, and new orders are blocked.

   • ​Daily Profit Target (DPT): If the realized profit hits ₹Y, the user is prompted to "protect their winnings," and further trading is disabled.

2. ​The "Commitment Lock":

   • ​Once these limits are set and saved for the day, they cannot be changed or increased until the market closes. This prevents "cheating" your own rules during a losing streak.

3. ​Visual Countdown/Warning:

   • ​A progress bar on the dashboard showing how close the trader is to their "Daily Max Loss."

   • ​A notification pops up when the trader is within 80% of their limit.

4. ​Order Blocking:

   • ​If a user tries to click "Punch to Buy" after hitting a limit, the button should be grayed out with a message: "Daily Limit Reached. Take a break and trade tomorrow."
