Common comparison error
Loss limit measured from local midnight can differ from rolling or UTC Session limit; amount alone is insufficient.
GlossaryStrategy & risk
Loss limit
A voluntary or platform-enforced cap on losses over a session, day, week, or other period. Check how it is calculated and changed.
Practical use
How to verify Loss limit
Read Loss limit together with Chasing losses, Session limit, Variance. The comparison must preserve the exact rule, value, state, and evidence described below.
A neutral example
After three losses, Loss limit blocks a larger recovery stake. History confirms whether the calculation uses net loss, gross stakes, or Chasing losses. The scenario is specific to Loss limit: the calculation can use session net loss, gross losing stakes, day boundary, or another declared measure.
Model the exposure before considering a progression
The simulator shows stake growth, cumulative loss, and the first limit breach. It is a risk demonstration, not a recovery recommendation.
Evidence path
Where to verify Loss limit
Use the source that governs the exact contract, account, entity, or platform state. A general definition cannot replace current broker terms.
