Trading limits

You can set personal limits to help you manage your trading. To set them, open the menu in the app, select Member Protection, then Member Limits.

Limits you can set

• Deposit limits: the total amount you can deposit into your STX account per day, week or month, or over the life of the account.
• Max trade limits: the total amount you can have at risk across your account, per order and per market.
• Loss limits: the amount you can lose over 24 hours, a week or a month.
• Time limits: the number of hours per day you can spend on STX.

When you reach a limit, the related activity is blocked until the limit’s period has passed. For example, once you reach a deposit limit, you cannot deposit again until the period ends.

Changing a limit

As the app explains when you set a limit, you can set a more restrictive limit at any time. After you set a limit, you can only increase it after the associated timeframe has passed.

To see the limits you have set, see Limit history. For a break from trading, see Cool off period and Self-exclusion.

If you have questions about your limits, contact Customer Support.
