Dashboard
Settings
How the Settings page syncs risk controls and notifications to the live bot.
The Settings page is where users adjust the more detailed safety controls for the bot. These settings are saved by the dashboard and then refreshed by the live bot while it is running.
What Users Can Change Here
- Risk per Trade (%)Percentage of balance risked per new trade.
- Max Daily Loss (%)Stops new trading for the day when daily loss reaches the configured cap.
- Max Drawdown (%)Hard stop based on drawdown from peak equity, not just starting balance.
- Max Open TradesMaximum number of concurrent open trades the bot can hold.
- Max Daily TradesMaximum number of new trade entries allowed in a day.
- Max Spread (pips)Blocks entries when the broker spread is wider than the allowed threshold.
- Trade Timeout (hours)Closes trades that stay open longer than the configured timeout.
- Min Signal ScoreMinimum score a signal must reach before the bot can take it.
- Min R:R RatioRejects trades with risk-to-reward below the configured floor.
- Pause After N LossesTemporarily pauses the bot after a streak of consecutive losses.
Telegram Notifications
Users can also add a Telegram bot token and chat ID from this page. The bot reloads notification settings and uses them for trade alerts and summary messages.
How It Syncs
The dashboard stores the values, and the running bot refreshes them during its normal loop. Users do not need to restart the bot just to change most risk settings.
Note: The Bot page and the Settings page work together. Bot is for start or stop, strategy mode, pairs, and a few fast controls. Settings is for the deeper guardrails.
Tip: Keep strategy on Auto and adjust only one or two risk settings at a time. That makes it much easier to understand why bot behavior changes.
