BUTTONS
Halt trading: no new trades for the WHOLE bot. Open positions keep their stops and exit rules. Press Resume when ready.
Emergency stop: halts the bot AND closes every open position at market now, then cancels resting orders. Use when something looks wrong.
Activate (a rule book): the bot starts watching its rules and trades when they match.
Pause (a rule book): no new trades for that book. An open position keeps its stop and exit rules.
Stop (a rule book): switches it off. Only allowed when it holds no position.
Close (a position): closes that one position at market now.
WORDS
Contract: the unit Delta trades in. 1 contract is a fixed amount of the coin (BTC: 0.001 BTC, ADA: 1 ADA). The editor shows its ₹ value.
Leverage: how much bigger the position is than the money it locks. 3x = a ₹3,000 position locks about ₹1,000. Higher leverage = closer liquidation.
Stop-loss %: how far the price may go against you before the position closes. It rests on Delta itself, so it works even if this server is down.
Target %: closes in profit this far away (0 = no target).
Daily loss limit: once today's losses (plus what open positions could still lose at their stops) reach it, no new trades until 05:30 IST.
Long / Short: long = buy, profits when price goes up. Short = sell first, profits when price goes down.
Candle (1m, 15m…): rules are checked on closed candles of that size.
LIVE = real money on Delta Exchange India (autodelta sub-account).
