Reduce-Only Orders are now available to help traders avoid accidental position increases.​ This risk management tool ensures trades only reduce existing positions, preventing unintended exposure.​

  • Automatically prevents orders that would increase position size
  • Works as a safety mechanism for exit trades
  • Complements existing Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) features

Risk management update: Position adjustments can also be made by dragging TP/SL levels directly on the interface.​
