How QuantumEdge helps you manage trading risk.
Primary knowledge hub
Primary knowledge hub for platform usage and feature reference.
Automated trading amplifies both gains and losses. Without proper risk controls, a single bad trade or market event can cause significant damage. QuantumEdge provides multiple layers of risk management that are enforced server-side and cannot be bypassed by strategy logic.
Each strategy has individual stop-loss, take-profit, maximum position size, maximum daily trades, and drawdown limits. If any limit is reached, the strategy automatically pauses and alerts you. These controls ensure no single strategy can exceed your risk tolerance.
In addition to per-strategy controls, QuantumEdge enforces portfolio-level limits including total allocation caps, correlation limits, and aggregate drawdown thresholds. These prevent over-concentration and ensure diversification across your active deployments.
The platform includes a one-click emergency stop that immediately pauses all active strategies. Use this feature during unexpected market events, platform issues, or whenever you need to halt all trading activity instantly.
