Risk Management Built Into Every Trade
TradingGenie does not just generate signals: it manages risk at every level. Our 7-layer risk protection system is designed to help protect your capital in all market conditions.
Position Sizing Controls
Every trade is sized based on account balance, per-symbol risk limits, and current market volatility. No single trade can risk more than a defined percentage of your portfolio.
Stop-Loss & Take-Profit
Automated stop-loss and take-profit levels are set for every trade based on ATR (Average True Range) and strategy parameters. Exits are never left to chance.
Maximum Drawdown Protection
If your portfolio drawdown exceeds a defined threshold, the system reduces position sizes or pauses trading entirely until conditions improve.
Correlation Guards
Before opening a new position, the system checks correlation with existing positions. If adding the trade would create dangerous concentration risk, it is blocked.
Circuit Breakers
During extreme market events (flash crashes, sudden volatility spikes, or rapid consecutive losses) circuit breakers halt all trading activity to protect your capital.
Adaptive Risk Adjustment
The system detects market regime changes (trending, ranging, volatile, calm) and automatically adjusts risk parameters, strategy weights, and position sizes accordingly.
Symbol Blacklisting
Assets that consistently underperform or show erratic behaviour are automatically blacklisted, preventing the system from trading them until conditions normalise.
Trading cryptocurrencies and other financial instruments involves significant risk and can result in the loss of your invested capital. You should not invest more than you can afford to lose and should ensure that you fully understand the risks involved. TradingGenie is a trading automation and decision-support tool. It does not provide financial advice, investment advice, or any other type of regulated advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Risk Management FAQ
Can I customise risk parameters?
Pro and Enterprise users can configure risk parameters including maximum position size, drawdown limits, and per-symbol allocations through the dashboard settings.
What happens during a flash crash?
Circuit breakers detect extreme price movements and rapid consecutive losses. When triggered, they halt all trading activity until conditions stabilise, protecting your capital from cascading losses.
Does TradingGenie eliminate trading risk?
No. No tool can eliminate trading risk. TradingGenie provides risk management tools to help manage and reduce risk, but all trading involves the possibility of loss. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
