Daily Circuit Breaker
If your total daily losses exceed a configured threshold, all autonomous trading stops immediately.
How It Works
- Default threshold: 5% of total portfolio value
- Trigger: Sum of all realized + unrealized losses for the day exceeds threshold
- Action: All new trades blocked, existing positions preserved
- Reset: Midnight UTC automatic reset, or manual override by user
When Triggered
- Prism sends an immediate alert (in-app notification)
- All pending orders are cancelled
- No new positions can be opened
- Existing positions remain (not force-liquidated)
- AI continues monitoring but does not trade
Manual Override
If you've reviewed the situation and want to resume:
- Go to Settings > Risk Management > Circuit Breaker
- Click "Override and Resume"
- Confirm with wallet signature
PROTECTION
The circuit breaker exists to prevent cascading losses in volatile markets. Think carefully before overriding — the AI stopped for a reason.
