What does the live tilt detection banner setting control?
Whether the Dashboard shows an amber warning when today's trading drifts from your own 30-day baseline. It is on by default, and — despite living on the AI page — it makes no AI call at all. Its own description says so: pure logic.
It compares three things about today against the previous thirty days of your own trading:
- Position sizeAre you trading bigger than you normally do?
- Stop distanceAre your stops further away than usual?
- Time between tradesAre you firing them off faster than usual?
When any of the three drifts past the threshold, an amber banner appears on the Dashboard. The threshold is a percentage deviation from your baseline, set in the field beside the switch: 20% by default, and it will not go below 5.
Why it is on this page. It sits with the automatic features because it behaves like one — something that acts without being asked. It costs nothing to leave on, and it does not depend on having a key. If you have no API key at all, this still works.
Tuning the threshold. Lower catches more and cries wolf more; higher only speaks up on a real departure. Twenty per cent is a reasonable starting point precisely because it is comfortably outside normal variation. Move it once you have seen how often it fires for you, not before.
It is a description of your behaviour, not a judgement of it. Trading bigger after a run of wins is not automatically tilt. The banner tells you a thing has changed; whether that change is deliberate is yours to answer.
