Violation Action Types

When a rule or commitment term within Trader's Guard is breached, the platform enforces one of three automated actions depending on the rule's configuration.

1. Block Order (Pre-Trade Guard)

The system blocks the order before it is placed.
  • Operation: Pre-trade validation intercepts the order submission and checks your configured rule constraints (e.g. max lot size, unauthorized trading instruments, or trading session windows).
  • Result: The order is rejected immediately with a descriptive toast notification, leaving your existing positions unaffected.

2. Account Lock for X Hours

The account's trading rights are temporarily disabled for a specified cooldown duration configured in your Scenario.
  • Liquidations: Once the lock is activated, the system automatically closes all open positions and cancels all pending orders.
  • Cooldown Purpose: Designed to enforce psychological cooling-off following severe drawdowns or rule breaches, preventing emotional revenge trading.

3. Close Order

The system immediately closes all open positions and cancels all pending orders, without locking trading permissions for future orders.

⚠️ Critical Warning: Portfolio-Wide Liquidation

[!WARNING] Liquidation Applies to the Entire Portfolio (Including Profitable Trades): * All Positions Liquidated: When an Account Lock or Close Order action is triggered by a rule breach, the platform initiates emergency liquidation across the entire trading account. This means every active position is closed, including trades that are currently in profit. * Execution at Market Price: Liquidations are executed as Market Orders at the prevailing best available market price. Under fast-moving market conditions, high volatility, or liquidity gaps, executions are subject to standard market slippage. * Independent Operation: Each condition in your Scenario can have a distinct penalty type assigned. Always review the assigned violation action when configuring your risk rules.

Scope of Application

  • Block Order: Applies to orders submitted through the GreatBless platform where pre-trade checks are possible.
  • Account Lock & Close Order: Operate at the account and MT5 server level, monitoring active exposure continuously regardless of how or where positions were opened.
