Introducing P&L Protect

Now you can set stop and target levels on the total P&L of your positions. You can even trail your stop level.

Normal stop losses work per trade. P&L Protect works on your total P&L — all your positions added up together. You set the number once, and it handles the rest automatically. Resets daily.

Here's what you can set

P&L Stop - "If I'm down ₹X across all my positions today, close everything." It does exactly that. Set any value in ₹1 increments.

P&L Target - "If I'm up ₹X today, book it and close everything." Profits locked, no second-guessing. Set any value in ₹1 increments.

Trailing Stop - This one's the best part. Your stop follows your total P&L as it goes up, but never comes back down. Say you're up ₹5,000 and you've set a trail of ₹2,000, even if the market reverses, you walk away with at least ₹3,000. It adjusts automatically as your P&L climbs.

Kill Switch - Once P&L Protect triggers and squares off your positions, it also blocks you from taking any new F&O or intraday trades for the rest of the day. So you can't talk yourself back into the market when you're emotional.
