Risk Engine

The risk engine is the most critical module. All trade execution is gated through it. If risk fails, everything fails. Never bypass this layer.

Purpose

Defines Layer 1 of the 5-layer EA architecture: capital preservation through drawdown limits, position sizing, consecutive-loss protection, and configurable rule-set support for prop firm challenges. Every trade must pass through IsTradeAllowed() before any other layer runs.
