I would like this feature added to risk management.  
I Would like to be able to limit the amount of trades taken per day to a set amount. Once a position is opened and take profit order or stop order hits, no more positions can be added and the account will be locked for the day. If you open 5 contracts long and sell 1, no more contracts can be added, only closed, and once closed thats it until the next trading session. I need this to help me stop over trading and keep to the trade plan! I’m not the only one with this idea!!
