How risk systems work in trading
Indicators vs. risk systems
Charts and indicators describe market structure. They do not know your account’s flatten window, combine rules, or whether a proposed path is allowed under your program. A serious operator needs a control plane that evaluates intent against policy — that is what PitStrike Risk Engine is for.
What PitStrike Risk Engine does
- Evaluates proposed actions against risk policy and hard rules.
- Vetoes non-compliant paths instead of routing around them.
- Stays in charge while PitStrike AI provides briefing-style context — AI does not override PitStrike Risk Engine.
How this fits PitStrike Terminal
PitStrike Terminal is where you operate. PitStrike Risk Engine is the policy layer that keeps that operation aligned with the rules you are responsible for — not a PDF you read once.
